Facilities that receive favorable grades in this area tend to have few deficiencies on those reports. Most importantly, these places should not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with endangerment of patients.

This includes a broad spectrum of nursing services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and respiratory therapists, in addition to other types of therapy. Fortunately, it appear that this facility has registered nurses on staff. Not every nursing home employs these skilled professionals. On the other hand, according to the data they provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists.

Once we looked at the quantity of care provided by aids and other staff, we next considered the facility's vaccination records. This facility vaccinated 79.1958 percent of its residents for pneumonia, which is slightly less than we expected but still a reasonably acceptable figure. While its vaccination rate was a bit lower than we like to see, at least this place was able to limit hospitalizations. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.

Nurse Quality

Grade: C

Moving on to our final area, this nursing home was awarded a decent nursing grade. While this was not as impressive as some of its other grades, this is really not a bad grade. When calculating a nursing home's nursing rating, we weigh the amount of time nurses commit to patients as well as the levels of training of those nurses. This place averages 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day, which is not an impressive total. Finally, while this nursing home got docked a bit for its nursing hours, it actually excelled in a few of our quality metrics. With less than five percent of its residents experiencing pressure ulcers, it did remarkably well in this area.
