Facility Inspections
The primary reason this facility received a decent overall score is its excellent inspections in recent years. We awarded it one of our higher grades in that area, with a grade of A. This is a much better grade than the facility's overall score, which was decent but certainly not elite. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in determining our inspection ratings. One critical factor is health deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of deficiencies is usually more important than the number of deficiencies, as some deficiencies are relatively minor. This particular nursing home received 9 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
This nursing home also performed favorably in the category of short-term care, with an elite score of A- in this category. In computing our short-term care ratings, we quantify the nursing home's skilled nursing services, including those performed by registered nurses, respiratory therapists, physical therapists and other types of therapists. The objective is to create a tool for comparing the rehabilitation services of various facilities. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home employs registered nurses. Not all facilities employs these skilled professionals. However, based on the information this nursing home provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. Finally, we looked at the number of patients that were able to return home from this facility. We found that 6 percent of this nursing home's residents were able to return home.

Nurse Quality
This nursing home's next best category was nursing. We awarded it a grade of B- in this category. This is basically a middle of the road grade in this category. When determining a nursing home's nursing score, we consider the number of hours nurses are with patients as well as the level of skill of those nurses. This nursing home provides 0.2 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a much lower figure than we are used to seeing. Lastly, we also assessed some nursing quality measures. While this place got docked a bit for nursing hours, it actually excelled in a few of these quality metrics. With fewer than five percent of its residents sustaining pressure ulcers, it fared well in this metric. This is often an indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can frequently be avoided by offering better nursing care, such as having a system of turning residents more often.
Long-term Care Quality
This nursing home's worst area is long-term care, which is the final category we scored. It received a lowly F for this area. Even with a few acceptable scores in other areas, this score is nevertheless disappointing so we felt obligated to draw your attention to it. Long-term care scores in this range generally are a bad sign for the quantity and quality of care provided by nurses and aids, as well as the levels of routine medical care available. One of the criteria we considered in addition to nursing hours is vaccines. We were a bit worried that this nursing home provided the pneumonia vaccine to only 88.414635 percent of its residents. Surprisingly, this place was actually decent at keeping its residents out of the hospital. It had just 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days. This was its best feature in this category.
