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. Based on this, we still had favorable view of this facility's recent inspections.
Short-term Care Quality
Additionally, we also wanted to note that this nursing home was given favorable short-term care marks this year. We awarded them one of our better scores in that area, with a grade of B. This turned out to be the facility's second best score. In determining our short-term care ratings, we assess the facility's levels of skilled nursing, which includes registered nurses, physical therapists respiratory therapists and other types of therapists. This grade is typically a reliable assessment of a facility's rehabilitation services. We were not able to find registered nurse or physical therapy staffing data for this facility. Finally, we considered the percentage of patients that ultimately were able to return home from this facility. We found that 5.9 percent of this facility's residents returned home.

For prospective residents seeking a permanent place to live rather than rehabilitation, long-term care grades are a key measure. On top of assessing the quantity of care provided by aids and other staff, we also looked at the number of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This nursing home provided the vaccine to 100 percent of its residents, which is higher than the average nursing home. Surprisingly, this facility also keeps its residents out of the hospital. It had only 0 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days. Unfortunately, some of its other scores in the category weren't as favorable as these.
Nurse Quality
This nursing home's least impressive area was nursing, which is the final category we assessed. It received an F for this category. Even with some respectable grades in other areas, this score is still alarming so we felt obligated to point it out. Our nursing grade is mostly based on a facility's nurse staffing. This particular nursing home provided just 0.4 hours of nursing care per patient per day. This figure is significantly below the national average.
