Registered Staff Hours
Short-term Care Quality
This nursing home really excelled in the category of short-term care, with an impressive grade of A- in this area. Our short-term care ratings are likely most important for individuals in need of a nursing home for rehabilitation. Rehabilitation usually mandates more skilled nursing. This means not just nursing, but also physical and speech therapy, as well as other types of therapy. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home has registered nurses on staff. Not every facility employs these skilled professionals. On the other hand, according to the data this nursing home provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. The last datapoint we considered in this area is the percentage of residents who who were able to eventually return home from the nursing home. We found that 6 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home as opposed to remaining at the facility on a permanent basis.
Nurse Quality
This facility also excelled in our nursing category, where it earned a grade of B+. Few places fared better in this area. Our nursing rating is primarily tied to a nursing home's level of nurse staffing. This nursing home provides 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also assessed some nursing quality measures in determining our nursing grades. This place performed very well when it comes to minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers. We consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.

Long-term Care Quality
This facilities next best area was long-term care. We awarded it a B- in this area. This is basically a middle of the road score in this category. Long-term care grades focus on a nursing home's personal care instead of the skilled nursing or healthcare services that are critical to a skilled nursing facility. Once we looked at the amount of care provided by nurses and other staff, we then looked at the nursing home's vaccination record. This facility vaccinated 99.632355 percent of its patients against pneumonia, which is higher than the majority of nursing homes. This facility also excelled at keeping its patients out of the hospital. Indeed, it had only 0.02 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.
Facility Inspections
The final category we looked at is inspections. Unfortunately, this nursing home didn't receive glowing inspections in recent years. As a result, we had to give it an F in this category. Since this data is collected by independent government inspectors, we heavily weight negative feedback in this area. This really dragged down this place's overall grade. For nursing homes with bad inspection scores, you should really scrutinize any severe deficiencies found on their recent inspection reports. This particular facility had 9 deficiencies on its inspection report. The only positive thing we found is that none of the deficiencies were in the categories that suggest that they caused a threat to patient safety or health. Lastly, we need to point out that this place was assessed large government fines amounting to over $100,000. This generally signifies that a nursing home's bad performance has been an issue for several years.
