Facility Inspections
One of the reasons this turned out to be a quality nursing home is that it received a very impressive inspection score. Inspections turned out to be its best category. In this area, we awarded it a grade of A. Inspection grades are based on pieces of information found on the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Places that receive favorable grades in this category have very few deficiencies on their reports. Most importantly, these places generally do not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with risks to patient safety. This nursing home was hit with 4 deficiencies on its inspection report, but we were relieved to see that none were considered severe. This means that the inspectors didn't consider any of the deficiencies to cause an imminent threat to resident health or safety. We should point out that deficiency-free inspection reports are uncommon in this industry.
Short-term Care Quality
Another quality feature for this facility is that it was awarded a favorable short-term care grade. Indeed, this turned out to be its second best category score. In this category, we awarded this facility a grade of B+. Our short-term care ratings are based in part on a nursing home's quantity of highly-skilled skilled healthcare professionals. This includes a vast scope of services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and speech therapists, in addition to other types of therapy. It does not appear that this facility submitted information about its staffing of registered nurses or physical therapists. Lastly, we looked at the number of residents who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. We found that 6.6 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home.

This facility also was given a strong long-term care score. Indeed, we awarded it an above average grade of B in this category. Facilities that excel in long-term care tend to provide residents with more supervision and stay on top of routine medical care. After we finished looking at the amount of care provided by nurses, we next considered the nursing home's vaccination statistics. This nursing home vaccinated 99.7807 percent of its patients against pneumonia, which is very impressive. Pneumonia can be a life or death illness for nursing home patients so we prefer when a facility doesn't leave its residents vulnerable. Finally, this facility was able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Moving on to our final area, this facility was awarded a decent nursing grade of C. In determining our nursing ratings, we factor in both nursing hours and the levels of licensure of those nurses. This nursing home averages 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient per day, which is well below average. Finally, although this place got docked a bit for its nursing hours per resident, it excelled in a few of our quality-based metrics. With fewer than five percent of its residents suffering from pressure ulcers, it performed very well in this subcategory.
