Registered Staff Hours
Short-term Care Quality
We gave this nursing home an A for our short-term care score. This score is much more impressive than the facility's overall score. Short-term care scores are based on the nursing home's quantity of highly-skilled nursing services. This means a wide spectrum of services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and speech therapists, in addition to other forms of therapy. Fortunately, it appear that this facility has registered nurses on staff. Not every facility employs these types of nurses. However, based on the data they provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. The last statistic we considered in this area is the percentage of patients who eventually returned home from the nursing home. We found that 6.2 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home as opposed to remaining at the facility on a permanent basis.
Nurse Quality
This nursing home also received a strong nursing grade. In fact, we awarded it a grade of B+ in that category, which is one of our better scores. Our nursing rating is largely tied to a facility's nurse staffing. This facility provided 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also assessed some nursing quality-based metrics in determining our nursing grades. This place performed very well in terms of avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers. We consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.

Facility Inspections
Turning to our inspection category, it appears this facility has earned respectable inspections in recent years as well. We gave it a grade of B- in this category. Inspection ratings weigh a host of factors included in a facility's inspection reports. One of the most important criteria we consider is the number and severity of deficiencies. While this nursing home had a few deficiencies on its government inspection report, none of them were major deficiencies based on CMS' scale. A few minor deficiencies aren't necessarily the end of the world.
Long-term Care Quality
The final area we scored is long-term care, which proved to be this nursing home's least impressive category. Sadly, it received an F in this category, which is clearly a major concern. In a long-term care environment, the nursing home's primary goal is to maintain residents' quality of life and keep them safe. Once we looked at the amount of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we turned to the facility's vaccination record. We were optimistic to find that this nursing home vaccinated 97 percent of its patients for pneumonia. To our surprise, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. With just 0 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, this nursing home had less hospitalizations than the majority of nursing homes. Sadly, a few of its other scores in this category weren't as favorable as these.
