Registered Staff Hours
Short-term Care Quality
We gave this facility an A- for our short-term care score. This score is far more impressive than its overall grade. Short-term care grades are commonly used to measure a nursing home's performance with rehabilitation. In order to provide highly graded rehabilitation services, facilities generally need to provide higher levels of skilled nursing. These types of services include registered nurses, physical therapists, respiratory therapists and other highly skilled individuals. We were not able to locate registered nurse or physical therapy staffing data for this facility. The final metric we assessed in this category is the number of patients who were able to leave the facility and return to the community. We discovered that 5.7 percent of this facility's residents returned home.
Facility Inspections
In addition, this facility also excelled in the area of inspections, where it received a grade of B+. Few nursing homes performed better in this area. Arguably the most significant factor we consider in determining our inspection scores is deficiencies. These deficiencies can be found on a facility's recent inspection reports. Places with higher scores in this category typically avoided the most severe deficiencies involving health risks or even death. This place was assessed 4 deficiencies on its inspection report, but we were relieved to see that none of the deficiencies were considered to be severe. This indicates that CMS didn't consider any of the deficiencies to be an imminent threat to resident health or safety. Keep in mind that deficiency-free inspections are uncommon in this industry.

Nurse Quality
This nursing home's next best category was nursing. We awarded it a grade of B- in this category. This is basically a middle of the road grade in this category. Nursing ratings are heavily correlated with quality and quantity of nursing care. This facility provided just 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident daily. This figure is significantly below the national average. Finally, our nursing grades also consider quality-based measures, such as avoiding major falls. Despite not having the most impressive total nursing hours, this place performed admirably in the metric of preventing major falls. This is typically an indicator that a facility has sufficient quality controls in place. Some falls can be avoided if a nursing home supplies enough nurses to assist its residents.
Long-term Care Quality
The next category we looked at was long-term care. We gave this facility a grade of C in this category. If you are seeking services other than short-term rehabilitation, you should take a close look at each facility's long-term care scores. In addition to looking at the quantity of care provided by aids and other staff, we analyzed the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This nursing home administered the vaccine to 99.62121 percent of its residents, which is higher than most nursing homes. This nursing home was able to keep its residents out of the hospital. Indeed, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.
