Registered Staff Hours
Facility Inspections
This facility received a solid overall grade as described above, but we really wanted to emphasize its excellent government inspections in recent years. We gave them an impressive grade of A in this category. Inspection ratings are tied to datapoints located in the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Facilities that score well in this area tend to have very few deficiencies on their reports. Most importantly, these places generally do not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with endangerment of patients. 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. Even some of the best nursing homes receive an occasional ding on their inspection report.
Short-term Care Quality
This nursing home's short-term care grade ended up being one of its respectable features. The facility was awarded a B- in this category. With our short-term care rating, we seek to create a valuable barometer for rehabilitation services. In this process, we look at a facility's level of highly-skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as occupational therapy. Unfortunately, we were not able to find information on registered nurse or physical therapy staffing for this nursing home. The final metric we assessed in this area is the number of residents who ultimately were able to return home from the nursing home. We found that just 5.3 percent of this facility's patients returned home. This figure was below average.

Long-term Care Quality
We also gave this facility a decent score in the area of long-term care, where we awarded it a grade of B-. In determining our long-term care ratings, we scrutinize the assistance with daily living received by a facility's patients. On top of considering the amount of care provided by aids and other staff, we analyzed the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This nursing home provided the vaccine to 100 percent of its patients. Finally, this facility was also able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.
Nurse Quality
The next area we rated is nursing, which turned out to be this nursing home's least impressive area. We gave it an abysmal F for this category, which is certainly concerning. There are quite a few criteria included in this area. Many of the criteria reflect staffing levels. This place averaged only 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient each day. This is an alarmingly low total. To go along with its subpar totals in the area of nursing hours per patient, this nursing home also didn't fare as well in the quality-based measures we looked at in computing our nursing scores. We looked at the percentage of patients sustaining major falls and pressure ulcers. This place had more falls and pressure ulcers than the average nursing home.
