Facility Inspections
To go along with its favorable overall score, we awarded this facility an A- for the area of inspections. Inspection scores take several factors into consideration, including deficiencies and substantiated complaints. You can find more information about each of these issues by reviewing copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. This particular nursing home had just a single deficiency on its inspection report and it was not one deemed to pose a threat to patient health or safety. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.
Long-term Care Quality
We also awarded this facility a score of A- for our long-term care grade. Long-term care scores of this caliber generally require both around the clock care from nurses and aids, as well as quality routine healthcare services. After looking at the amount of care provided by aids and other staff, we then looked at the facility's vaccination statistics. This nursing home vaccinated 86.910995 percent of its patients for pneumonia, which happens to be somewhat lower than we expected but still a reasonably acceptable figure. Clearly, this nursing home is doing something right in this area as it was able to keep its residents out of the hospital. Indeed, it had only 0.02 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.

Nurse Quality
This facility's next best category grade came in the area of nursing. In that category, we gave this nursing home a grade of B-. This wasn't quite on par with some of its other category grades mentioned above. Our nursing score assesses a handful of subcategories, however, the primary one is the quantity of nurse hours spent with patients. This facility provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a relatively low total compared to most other facilities. Finally, despite not having the highest total nursing hours, this facility actually performed admirably in the metric of preventing major falls. This is generally an indicator that a nursing home has sufficient quality controls in place.
Short-term Care Quality
The last area we analyzed is short-term care. In that category, we awarded this nursing home a B-. Our short-term care grade is generally used to assess a nursing home's rehabilitation services. In order to have highly rated rehabilitation services, facilities generally must have higher levels of skilled nursing services. These types of services include registered nurses, physical therapists, occupational therapists and other types of therapists. Unfortunately, it does not appear that this nursing home provided information on registered nurse or physical therapist staffing. The final item we looked at in this area is the number of patients who who were able to eventually return home from the facility. We found that just 5.1 percent of this facility's patients returned home.
