Facility Inspections
The primary reason this ended up being a decent nursing home is that it received an elite inspection score. Its inspection score was far better than its overall score. In our inspections category, we gave it an A+. Perhaps the most significant factor we look at in determining our inspection ratings is deficiencies. These deficiencies are found on a facility's inspection reports. Facilities with better scores in this category typically avoided the more severe deficiencies involving health risks or even death. While this nursing home had some minor dings on its report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are ones found in categories G through L. This tells you CMS did not deem any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety. We should note that deficiency-free inspection reports are rare in this industry.
Long-term Care Quality
We also gave this facility a strong grade in long-term care. This nursing home received a B+ in this area, which turns out to be one of our better scores. In a long-term care setting, the primary goal is to keep patients as healthy and safe as possible. This is different than skilled nursing or short-term care where the goal is to rehabilitate residents. One of the statistics we considered after nursing hours is vaccinations. This nursing home administered the pneumonia vaccine to 71.27072 percent of its residents. Although its vaccination rate was a bit lower than we hoped for, at least this nursing home was able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.

Nurse Quality
Next, we looked at the nursing category where we awarded this nursing home a grade of C, which is a decent grade. Our nursing grade features several datapoints. The most heavily weighted one is the number of hours nurses spent with patients. This facility provided just 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This figure is significantly below the national average. Finally, while this place got dinged a bit for its nursing hours per resident, it excelled in some of our quality measures. With fewer than five percent of its patients sustaining pressure ulcers, it performed well in this statistic.
Short-term Care Quality
This nursing home's weakest category is short-term care, which is the final category we analyzed. It received a lowly F for this area. Despite several acceptable scores in other areas, this grade is still alarming so we felt obligated to make sure you are aware. Our short-term care grades are arguably more meaningful for folks requiring a nursing home for rehabilitation. Rehabilitation typically requires more highly-skilled nursing services. This includes not merely nursing services, but also physical and respiratory therapy, as well as other types of therapy. It looks like this place was below average in several staffing areas we looked at. In fact, it supplied fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per patient than most facilities. The final metric we looked at in this category is the number of patients who were able to leave the facility and return to the community. We discovered that just 4.3 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home, which is well below average. The combination of these poor metrics was damning for this nursing home's short-term care score.
