Registered Staff Hours
Facility Inspections
In addition to performing well overall, this facility earned nearly flawless government inspections. As a result, it received one of our highest grades in that area with an A+. Perhaps the most important factor we consider in calculating our inspection scores is deficiencies. These deficiencies are found on a facility's inspection reports. Places with better scores in this category typically dodged the more severe deficiencies involving things like patient abuse. While this place had a few deficiencies on its report, none were serious based on CMS' scale. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.
Long-term Care Quality
Another one of this facility's quality category grades came in the area of long-term care. We awarded them one of our stronger scores in that area, with a grade of B+. Nursing homes that excel in this category tend to provide patients with closer supervision and stay on top of routine medical care. In addition to looking at the amount of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we analyzed the number of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This facility gave the vaccine to 99.33848 percent of its residents, which is an impressive figure. Pneumonia can be a life or death condition for nursing home patients so we prefer when a facility doesn't take any chances. Finally, this facility was able to limit hospitalizations. It had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.

Short-term Care Quality
In addition, this nursing home also was given favorable short-term care scores in our assessment. Indeed, we awarded it one of our stronger grades in that area, with a grade of B. In our short-term care assessment, we attempt to create a fair gauge for rehabilitation. In this process, we look at the nursing home's levels of skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as occupational therapy. Fortunately, it appear that this facility has registered nurses on staff. Not every nursing home employs these types of nurses. However, according to the data they provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. Lastly, we assessed the percentage of residents who ultimately returned home from this nursing home. We found that 4.5 percent of this facility's residents returned home.
Nurse Quality
The last area we graded was nursing, in which this facility received a B-. Although this proved to be its poorest category rating, this is nevertheless not a terrible score. In determining our nursing scores, we weigh both nursing hours and the training levels of those nurses. This facility provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This figure is significantly below average. Finally, we like to look at quality-based metrics, such as the percent of residents who sustained pressure ulcers and major falls. Sometimes these data points are decent measures of the quality of nursing care.
