Registered Staff Hours
Facility Inspections
This nursing home earned a solid overall grade as described above, but we really wanted to point out its excellent government inspection reports in recent years. We gave them an A+ in this category. Our inspection ratings weigh a host of factors included in a nursing home's inspection report. One of the most important criteria we weigh heavily is the quantity and severity of deficiencies. Facilities with higher grades in this area tend to have very few severe deficiencies. This particular nursing home had just a single deficiency on its inspection report and it was not one deemed to pose a threat to patient health or safety. Even some of the best nursing homes receive an occasional ding on their inspection report.
Short-term Care Quality
This facility also was given a strong short-term care score. In fact, we gave it a grade of B+ in that area, which is one of our better. Our short-term care grades are based in part on the facility's quantity of highly-skilled skilled healthcare professionals. This means a wide scope of nursing services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and occupational therapists, in addition to other forms of therapy. Unfortunately, we were not able to find registered nurse or physical therapy staffing data for this facility. Finally, we looked at the percentage of patients that ultimately returned home from this nursing home. We found that 6.1 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home.

Long-term Care Quality
Moving on to the category of long-term care, this facility was given just a D in this area. For patients looking for a permanent place to live as opposed to rehabilitation, long-term care is a very important category. One of the datapoints we considered after nursing hours is vaccines. Thankfully, this nursing home provided the pneumonia vaccination to 98.42932 percent of its patients. To our surprise, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. With only 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, this nursing home had less hospitalizations than most nursing homes. Sadly, a few of its other scores in this category were not as favorable as these.
Nurse Quality
This facility's least impressive category is nursing, which is the final area we analyzed. In this category, we awarded this facility a grade of D. There are numerous data points within this category. Most of these criteria relate to staffing levels. This facility provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a very low total compared to most nursing homes. On top of receiving below average scores for total nursing hours, this facility was a bit less impressive in some of the quality-based measures we looked at in calculating our nursing scores. We looked at the percent of residents experiencing pressure ulcers and found that this facility was at approximately 1.5 times the national average in this metric. This is a bad sign when you consider that so many pressure ulcers are believed to be preventable with better nursing care. Unfortunately, this statistic pulled down this nursing home's nursing score substantially.
