On top of receiving a great overall score, this place also earned top notch government inspections in recent years. We awarded it one of our best grades in this area, with a grade of A+. Inspection scores weigh several factors included in a nursing home's inspection reports. One key criteria we consider is the number and severity of deficiencies. Nursing homes with higher scores in this area generally have very few of these severe deficiencies. This particular nursing home received 6 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.

Short-term Care Quality
Turning to another strength for this facility, we gave them one of our more favorable grades in our short-term care category as well, with a B. Our short-term care scores are based in part on a nursing home's quantity of skilled nursing services. This includes a broad range of nursing services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and speech therapists, in addition to other forms of therapy. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home employs registered nurses. Not all nursing homes employs these types of nurses. On the other hand, based on the information this nursing home provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. The last metric we looked at in this area is the percentage of patients that who were able to eventually return home from the facility. We found that 5.7 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home as opposed to remaining at the facility on a permanent basis.
Nurse Quality
The final category we rated is nursing. For this category, we awarded this facility a grade of C. Our nursing grade weighs many factors. The most heavily weighted one is the number of hours nurses spent with patients. This nursing home provides 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a much lower figure than we are used to seeing. Finally, our nursing grades also factor in quality-based measures, such as avoiding major falls. Despite not having the most impressive total nursing hours, this place performed admirably in the metric of preventing major falls. This is generally a good indicator that a place has quality controls in place. Some falls could be avoided if a facility supplies enough nurses to assist its residents.
