Nurse Quality
This nursing home's nursing rating is notably more impressive than its overall score. With a strong performance in this area, it received a quality score in that category with a B+. We looked at the skill-level of nurses at the nursing home, in addition to the quantity of time the nurses spent with patients, in computing our score in this area. This nursing home provides 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, our nursing grades also factor in quality-based assessments, such as avoiding major falls. This facility performed well in this area. Avoiding major falls is typically a good indicator that a place has reliable quality controls in place. Major falls can generally be prevented if more nurses aids and better safety protocols are in place.
Facility Inspections
This facility's inspection score exceeded its overall score as well. We gave them one of our better scores in that category, with a B. This is a notably better grade than its overall score. Inspection grades are based on items found on the a nursing home's government inspections. Nursing homes that excel in this category have few deficiencies on those reports. Most importantly, these facilities should not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with endangerment of patients. This facility was assessed 2 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none were considered to be major deficiencies.

Short-term Care Quality
We also gave this facility a decent grade in the category of short-term care, with a grade of B-. With our short-term care rating, we seek to craft a fair measure for rehabilitation. In this process, we look at the facility's scope of highly-skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as speech therapy. In this facility's case, we were surprised to learn that it actually provides less registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than a typical facility. The hope is always that this does not adversely impact the quality of care. The last datapoint we looked at in this category is the percentage of patients who were able to leave the facility and return home. We discovered that just 4.6 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home, which is actually below average.
Long-term Care Quality
Switching gears to our final category, this facility really didn't perform well. With a poor grade of F in long-term care, this was this facility's weakest grade. Facilities that do not fare well in long-term care typically aren't as well-staffed and are lagging in some of the areas of routine personal care we assessed. In addition to considering the volume of care provided by aids and other staff, we looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. We were a bit bothered by the fact that this nursing home vaccinated a relatively low 29.670328 percent of its patients. Surprisingly, this place actually fared well at keeping its patients out of the hospital. It had only 0.02 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days. This was its best score in this category.
