Facility Inspections
The primary reason this ended up being a decent nursing home is that it received an elite inspection score. In fact, its inspection grade was far better than its overall score. In the inspections category, we gave this facility an A. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in calculating these inspection scores. One of those factors is deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of these deficiencies is usually more important than the quantity of deficiencies, as some end up being relatively insignificant. While this place had a few minor dings on its government inspection report, it had no severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are labeled as categories G, H, I, J, K and L. This tells you that the government inspectors didn't deem any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety. A couple minor deficiencies shouldn't stop you from considering a nursing home.
Short-term Care Quality
This nursing home's second best category turned out to be short-term care. In that area, we gave this nursing home a B-. In computing our short-term care scores, we size up a facility's levels of highly skilled nursing, which includes registered nurses, physical therapists occupational therapists and other types of therapists. This rating is frequently a useful assessment of a nursing home's rehabilitation services. In this nursing home's case, we were surprised to learn that it actually provides less registered nurse and physical therapist hours per patient than the typical facility. Lastly, we assessed the number of patients that who were able to eventually return home from this nursing home. We found that 5.4 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home. This figure was actually quite a bit below average.

Long-term Care Quality
This facility's second lowest category was long-term care, where it received just a D in that category. This is a relatively poor score. When facilities receive a grade in this range in long-term care it typically means the facility didn't perform well in our quality measures relating to resident care. Once we assessed the amount of care provided by nurses, we next considered the nursing home's vaccination data. Candidly, we were a bit worried that this facility vaccinated just 88.161995 percent of its residents for pneumonia. To our surprise, this place was actually decent at keeping its residents out of the hospital. It had just 0.02 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days. This is its best feature in this category.
Nurse Quality
The next area we looked at was nursing, which is this nursing home's least impressive area. We awarded this facility a grade of D in that category. Nursing scores are based in large part on quality and quantity of nursing care. This place provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident daily. This is a very low total compared to most nursing homes. Finally, we also looked at some nursing quality-based metrics in determining our nursing ratings. This place fared well when it comes to avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers.
