Facility Inspections
In addition to being a respectable nursing home overall, this place really excelled in the category of inspections, where it earned an A. Few nursing homes performed better in this category. Our inspection scores are tied to datapoints located in the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Nursing homes that score well in this area typically have few deficiencies on those reports. Most importantly, these nursing homes should not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with risks to patient safety. This particular nursing home had just a single deficiency on its inspection report and it was not one deemed to pose a threat to patient health or safety. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is always a good sign.
Long-term Care Quality
This nursing home also was awarded a positive grade in our long-term care category. We gave this facility a better than average grade of B in this area. Long-term care scores in this range generally require both around the clock care from nurses and aids, as well as quality routine medical care. One of the criteria we considered on top of nurse's aid hours was vaccinations. This nursing home administered the pneumonia vaccine to 53.869972 percent of its residents. While its vaccination rate was a bit lower than we had hoped, at least this place was able to limit hospitalizations. In fact, it had only 0.02 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.

Nurse Quality
Next we wanted to quickly point out one of this facility's major weaknesses. In the area of nursing care, we gave this nursing home a lowly grade of F. When computing our nursing grades, we weigh both staffing levels and the skill levels of those nurses. This facility offered just 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient on a daily basis. This figure is far below the national average. Lastly, we also assessed some nursing quality-based metrics in computing our nursing scores. This facility fared well in the area of avoiding pressure ulcers and major falls.
Short-term Care Quality
The next category we analyzed is short-term care, which ended up being this nursing home's least impressive area. It received an F for this area, which is clearly a major disappointment. With our short-term care category, we endeavor to create a sound barometer for rehabilitation services. In this process, we look at the facility's offerings of highly-skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as occupational therapy. With its grade in this area, we were not stunned to find that this nursing home is well below average in terms of the number of physical therapy and registered nurse hours offered to its patients based on the data we looked at. The last item we assessed in this category is the number of patients who returned home from the facility. This nursing home struggled quite a bit in this metric as well, with just 4.9 percent of its patients returning home.
