Facility Inspections
One of the many reasons this turned out to be a quality nursing home is that it received an A+ inspection grade. This is simply as good as it gets in this critical category. Inspection grades weigh a host of factors included in a nursing home's inspection reports. One key criteria we weigh heavily is the quantity and severity of deficiencies. Places with better scores in this category usually have very few of these severe deficiencies. Fortunately, although this place had some minor dings on its report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are ones found in categories G through L. This tells you the government inspectors didn't deem any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.
Short-term Care Quality
Contributing to its elite profile, this facility also performed well in our short-term care area. In fact, it received a grade of A for the category. In our short-term care grade, we endeavor to craft a meaningful measure for rehabilitation. In doing so, we analyze a nursing home's levels of skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as respiratory therapy. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home has registered nurses on staff. Not every facility employs these skilled professionals. On the other hand, based on the data this nursing home provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. The last item we considered in this category is the percentage of residents who were able to return home from the nursing home. We found that 6.3 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home as opposed to remaining at the facility on a permanent basis.

Long-term Care Quality
The next category we assessed was long-term care. Contributing to its strong resume, this nursing home also performed well in this category. In fact, we gave it a of A for that category. Facilities that do well in this category tend to be well-staffed and provide extensive hands on care to residents. On top of assessing the quantity of care provided by aids and other staff, we also looked at the number of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This facility administered the vaccine to 98.79932 percent of its residents, which is what we like to see. Pneumonia tragically can be a life threatening ailment for nursing home residents so we like it when a nursing home doesn't leave its residents vulnerable. Lastly, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.
Nurse Quality
The last category we rated was nursing, where this facility was awarded an A-. This completed a very strong profile. Very few nursing homes received an A- or better in each of our categories. When computing a facility's nursing score, we consider the quantity of hours nurses are seeing patients as well as the level of skill of those nurses. This nursing home averages 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also looked at some nursing quality measures in determining our nursing grades. This place performed very well in the area of avoiding pressure ulcers and major falls. We consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.
