Registered Staff Hours
Short-term Care Quality
This nursing home's best category grade came in the area of short-term care. In that category, we gave this nursing home a B+. It actually outperformed most nursing homes in this area. Short-term care grades are based on the facility's quantity of skilled nursing services. This means a broad range of nursing services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and occupational therapists, in addition to other variations of therapy. Unfortunately, we weren't able to find registered nurse or physical therapy staffing data for this facility. The final datapoint we considered in this area is the number of patients that returned home from the nursing home. We found that 5.6 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home as opposed to remaining at the facility on a permanent basis.
Nurse Quality
This facility's second best category grade came in the area of nursing. In that category, we gave this nursing home a grade of B-. Nursing grades are primarily tied to a facility's nurse staffing. This nursing home provides 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a much lower figure than we are used to seeing. Finally, nursing scores also factor in quality-based assessments, such as preventing major falls. Despite not having the highest total nursing hours per resident, this place performed admirably in the area of preventing major falls. This is generally an indicator that a place has sufficient quality controls in place. Many falls can be avoided if a facility supplies enough nurses to assist its patients.

Facility Inspections
We also found that this nursing home has earned favorable inspections in recent years. In fact, we awarded it a grade of B- in this category. This is better than many nursing homes in this category. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in computing these inspection grades. One critical factor is deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of the deficiencies is usually more important than the number of deficiencies, as some are quite insignificant. This particular nursing home received 13 deficiencies on its inspection report. Overall, this is still a solid inspection report, but we'd always recommend looking into any deficiencies you find troubling.
Long-term Care Quality
Our last category is long-term care, in which we gave this facility a C in this area. Our long-term care ratings are meaningful for residents needing personal care. In addition to looking at the amount of care provided by nurses and other staff, we looked at the number of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This nursing home gave the vaccine to 96.206894 percent of its patients, which is better than the average nursing home. Lastly, this place was also able to limit hospitalizations. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.
