Facility Inspections
The primary reason this facility received a decent overall grade is its excellent health inspections in recent years. We gave them one of our better scores in that area, with an A-. This is a notably better score than the place's overall score, which was decent but certainly not elite. Perhaps the most critical factor we consider in computing our inspection ratings is deficiencies. These deficiencies can be found on a nursing home's inspection reports. Facilities with higher scores in this category most likely avoided the most severe deficiencies involving things like patient abuse. Although this facility had a few deficiencies on its report, none were severe based on CMS' deficiency scale. A few minor deficiencies should not stop you from considering a nursing home.
Long-term Care Quality
Another one of this nursing home's better category scores was in the category of long-term care. In that category, we awarded this nursing home a B. It actually outpaced most nursing homes in this category. When nursing homes receive a score in this range in this category it typically means it has plenty of staff and is a quality place to live on a permanent basis. On top of assessing the amount of care provided by aids and other staff, we also looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This nursing home provided the vaccine to 99.749374 percent of its patients. Vaccines are vital to keeping residents healthy. Clearly, this facility is doing something right in this area as it also excelled at keeping 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
Another strength of this nursing home is its favorable grade in nursing. We awarded them one of our better scores in that area, with a grade of D. When calculating our nursing grades, we assess both staffing levels and the skill levels of the nurses. This place averaged just 0.4 hours of nursing care per patient each day. This statistic is well below average. Lastly, we also looked at some nursing quality measures in computing our nursing scores. This facility performed well in the area of avoiding pressure ulcers and major falls. Many consider these statistics to be measures of the quality of nursing care.
Short-term Care Quality
The next category we looked at was short-term care. Unfortunately, we gave it a lowly F in this category, which is an abysmal grade. This is certainly a significant disappointment. Short-term care ratings are based in part on a nursing home's quantity of highly-skilled nursing services. This includes a broad spectrum of services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and respiratory therapists, in addition to other types of therapy. With its grade in this area, we weren't stunned to find that this facility is well below average in terms of its quantity of registered nurse and physical therapy hours offered to its residents based on the data we assessed. Lastly, we assessed the number of patients that were able to return home from this nursing home. This nursing home didn't fare well here either. In fact, we found that just 3.6 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home.
