On top of earning a great overall grade, this nursing home also received an elite nursing grade. We gave them one of our better scores in that area, with a grade of A. In computing a nursing home's nursing score, we weigh the quantity of hours nurses are seeing patients and the level of skill of those nurses. This nursing home provides 3.6 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, our nursing grades also factor in quality-based assessments, such as avoiding major falls. This nursing home performed well in this area. Avoiding major falls is typically a good indicator that a facility has reliable quality controls in place. Major falls can many times be avoided if more nurses aids and better safety protocols are in place.
Long-term Care Quality
Among the reasons we graded this facility so highly is that it was awarded a strong long-term care score. Indeed, long-term care ended up being its second most favorable category score. In that area, we awarded this facility a score of A-. When facilities receive a score in this range in this category it typically means it's well-staffed and is a quality place to reside on a permanent basis. After we finished assessing the volume of nursing care, we then analyzed the facility's vaccination statistics. This facility vaccinated 98.66667 percent of its residents for pneumonia, which is an impressive figure. Pneumonia sadly is often a deadly health condition for nursing home patients so we prefer when a facility doesn't roll the dice on this issue. Lastly, this nursing home was able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had only 0.62 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.

Facility Inspections
Finally, we looked at this nursing home's inspection score This was not one of this nursing home's stronger areas. We gave it a C in this category. This isn't a horrible score in this category. It simply wasn't as favorable as some of this facility's other grades. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in determining these inspection scores. One key factor is health deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of the deficiencies is arguably more important than the quantity of deficiencies, as some deficiencies are quite minor. This place had 3 deficiencies on its government inspection report, but fortunately none were in categories J through L. This indicates that inspectors did not deem any of the deficiencies to put patient safety or health in immediate harm or jeopardy. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.
