Facility Inspections
The main reason this ended up being a decent nursing home is that it received an excellent inspection grade. In fact, its inspection grade was far superior to its overall grade. In our inspections category, we gave it an A. These inspection scores take several factors into consideration, including deficiencies, substantiated complaints and federal fines. You can find more information about each of these factors by reviewing copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. While this facility had some minor dings on its inspection report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are ones labeled as categories G, H, I, J, K and L. This tells you that the inspectors didn't consider any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Another one of this facility's higher category scores came in the category of long-term care. In that category, we awarded this facility a grade of B+. When facilities receive this kind of score in this category it is a good sign for resident care and suggests that the nursing home is well-staffed with nurses aids. Once we assessed the amount of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we then analyzed the nursing home's vaccination records. This facility vaccinated 99.354836 percent of its residents for pneumonia, which is significantly higher than the vast majority of nursing homes. Finally, this nursing home was able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had only 0 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.

We also gave this facility a solid score in the category of short-term care, where we awarded it a C. Short-term care ratings are based in part on the facility's quantity of skilled nursing services. This means a vast spectrum of nursing services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and occupational therapists, as well as other types of therapy. Unfortunately, it does not appear that this facility submitted registered nurse or physical therapist staffing data. The final datapoint we assessed in this area is the number of residents who returned home from the nursing home. We found that just 5.3 percent of this facility's patients returned home.
Nurse Quality
The next area we scored was nursing. We gave this facility a grade of D in nursing, rendering this the nursing home's least impressive grade. Our nursing rating is largely based on a facility's level of nurse staffing. With a meager 0.4 hours of nursing care per patient each day, this nursing home's nurse staffing levels were far below average. Lastly, we also assessed some nursing quality-based metrics in determining our nursing ratings. This place fared well in terms of minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls. We consider these statistics to be reliable indicators of the quality of nursing care.
