Facility Inspections
This facility earned a solid overall grade as described above, but we really wanted to point out its excellent government inspections in recent years. We gave them an impressive grade of A+ in this category. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in calculating these inspection ratings. One critical factor is deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of deficiencies is usually more meaningful than the number of deficiencies, as some end up being relatively minor. We were not able to locate information about this nursing home's deficiencies. We wish we had more data for this facility. Without complete deficiency data, it ended up being challenging to evaluate it in terms of this category.
Long-term Care Quality
This facilities next most favorable category was long-term care. We awarded it a grade of B- in this area. This is essentially a middle of the road grade in this category. With our long-term care grade, we analyze the volume of care provided by a facility, along with some quality measures. On top of looking at the amount of care provided by aids and other staff, we analyzed the percentage of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This facility vaccinated 97.74011 percent of its residents. Lastly, this nursing home was also able to limit hospitalizations. It had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Short-term Care Quality
This facility was awarded its next best category grade in the category of short-term care. We awarded this nursing home a B- in this area, which is a respectable score. With our short-term care rating, we endeavor to forge a meaningful gauge for rehabilitation. In this process, we assess the nursing home's offerings of highly-skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as occupational therapy. Unfortunately, it does not look like this nursing home provided information on registered nurse or physical therapist staffing. The final measure we assessed in this area is the number of residents who returned home from the nursing home. We found that just 5.5 percent of this facility's residents returned home. This figure was below the national average.
Nurse Quality
The next area we analyzed is nursing. Sadly, it received an abysmal F for this area, which is a poor grade. This is obviously a significant disappointment. We analyzed the levels of nurses working for the facility, as well as the number of hours the nurses were with residents, in calculating our rating in this category. With a meager 0.4 hours of nursing care per patient daily, this nursing home's nurse staffing levels were significantly below average. On top of its subpar nursing hours, this nursing home received poor marks in many of the quality-based measures we considered in computing our nursing ratings. We found that more of this facility's patients suffered falls which led to major injury. We believe that many falls could be prevented with better nursing care. This statistic contributed to this nursing home receiving a terrible nursing rating.
