Facility Inspections
While this facility's overall grade was not bad, it really excelled in the category of inspections. In fact, we awarded it a grade of A- for that category, which is one of our highest scores. Our inspection grades account for a host of factors found on a facility's inspection report. One of the most important criteria we rely on is the quantity and severity of deficiencies. Places with higher grades in this area usually have very few severe deficiencies. This place was hit with 6 deficiencies on its inspection report, but we were relieved to see that none were considered to be severe deficiencies. This means that the government inspectors didn't consider any of the deficiencies an imminent risk to patient safety or health. We should note that deficiency-free inspections are rare in this industry.
Long-term Care Quality
Another one of this nursing home's more impressive category scores was in the category of long-term care. In that area, we awarded this facility a B+. Long-term care scores of this caliber generally require both around the clock care from nurses and aids, as well as quality routine healthcare services. One of the datapoints we considered on top of nursing hours is vaccines. This nursing home provided the pneumonia vaccination to 100 percent of its residents. Vaccination is a great way to minimize unnecessary deaths for the nursing home population. Clearly, this nursing home is doing something right in this area as it also excelled at keeping its patients out of the hospital. Indeed, it had only 0.04 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.

Short-term Care Quality
This facility's next best area is short-term care. In that area, we gave this nursing home a C. Our short-term care grades are considered to be more important for those requiring a nursing home for rehabilitation. Rehabilitation typically requires higher levels of highly-skilled nursing. Skilled nursing includes not just nursing services, but also physical and occupational therapy, as well as other types of therapy. We were not able to find registered nurse or physical therapy staffing data for this nursing home. The final statistic we considered in this category is the number of residents who were able to leave the facility and return home. We discovered that just 5 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home, which is below average.
Nurse Quality
The last area we rated was nursing. We gave this nursing home a grade of C in this category. Nursing ratings are heavily correlated with nurse staffing levels. This nursing home averages just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a very low figure. Finally, we also assessed some nursing quality measures. While this facility got docked a bit for its nursing hours, it excelled in some of these quality measures. With less than five percent of its patients experiencing pressure ulcers, it fared remarkably well in this area. This is typically a good indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can frequently be avoided by offering better nursing care, such as by having a policy of moving patients more frequently.
