Facility Inspections
We want to point out that this facility outperformed its overall score in the area of inspections. In fact, it received an excellent government inspection report this year. As a result, it received one of our best grades in that area with a grade of A+. Inspection ratings account for several factors found on a nursing home's inspection report. One key criteria we rely on is the number and severity of deficiencies. Nursing homes with better grades in this area tend to have very few of these severe deficiencies. This particular nursing home received 5 deficiencies on its inspection report. Overall, this is still a good inspection report, but we'd always recommend looking into any deficiencies you find troubling.
Long-term Care Quality
This facility also received a positive score in our long-term care category. We awarded this nursing home an above average grade of B+ in that area. Long-term care scores of this caliber generally require both 24/7 care from nurses and aids, as well as quality routine healthcare services. After considering the quantity of care provided by nurses, we then looked at the nursing home's vaccination statistics. This nursing home vaccinated 99.625465 percent of its residents against pneumonia, which is what we like to see. Pneumonia is too frequently a deadly ailment for nursing home patients so we like it when a nursing home does not take any chances. Clearly, this nursing home is doing something right in this area as it also excelled at keeping its patients out of the hospital. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.

Nurse Quality
Next, we looked at the nursing category where we awarded this nursing home a grade of C, which is a decent grade. When computing our nursing grades, we look at both nursing hours and the training levels of those nurses. This nursing home provides only 0.4 hours of nursing care per patient each day. This is a somewhat concerning figure as it is well below average. Finally, nursing scores also consider quality-based metrics, such as preventing major falls. Despite not having the highest total nursing hours, this facility performed admirably in the metric of preventing major falls. This is usually an indicator that a nursing home has sufficient quality controls in place. Some falls can be avoided if a nursing home supplies enough nurses aids to assist its residents.
Short-term Care Quality
The final category we assessed was short-term care, which was this facility's worst category. We awarded this nursing home a grade of D in this area. Unfortunately, this grade hurt the facility's overall profile a bit. In calculating our short-term care scores, we size up a nursing home's levels of highly skilled nursing services, which includes registered nurses, physical therapists occupational therapists and other licensed professionals. This area is generally a useful assessment of a nursing home's rehabilitation services. It looks like this nursing home was below average in several staffing areas we focus on. In fact, it supplied fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than most facilities. Lastly, we considered the number of residents who ultimately were able to return home from this facility. This facility didn't fare well here either. In fact, we found that just 5 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home. This figure was quite a bit off the national average.
