Nurse Quality
In addition to receiving a great overall grade, this nursing home received an A+ for nursing. Our nursing grade is largely tied to the nursing home's nurse staffing. This nursing home averages 0.7 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, our nursing grades also factor in quality-based assessments, such as avoiding major falls. This place performed well in this area. Avoiding major falls is typically a good indicator that a place has reliable quality controls in place. Major falls can frequently be prevented if more nurses aids and better safety protocols are in place.
Short-term Care Quality
We also wanted to draw your attention to the fact that this facility was awarded a first-rate grade of A in our short-term care area. In crafting these short-term care ratings, we analyze the nursing home's skilled nursing services, including those performed by registered nurses, speech therapists, physical therapists and other types of therapists. The purpose is to create a scale for comparing the rehabilitation services of various facilities. Fortunately, it appear that this nursing home employs registered nurses. Not every nursing home employs these types of nurses. On the other hand, based on the data they provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. Lastly, we considered the number of patients that returned home from this nursing home. We found that 7 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home.

Facility Inspections
We awarded this facility an impressive grade of A for inspections. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in determining our inspection scores. One of those factors is deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of these deficiencies is arguably more important than the number of deficiencies, as some are relatively minor. While this facility had a few minor dings on its government inspection report, it had no severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are ones found in categories G through L. This means the inspectors did not deem any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient safety or health. Remember that deficiency-free inspection reports are rare in this industry.
Long-term Care Quality
The next category we rated is long-term care. This facility received a strong long-term care grade this year, with a B-. While this isn't quite as impressive as some of its other scores, this remains a decent rating for this category. Our long-term care scores are more important for people needing more traditional assistance associated with personal care. One of the data points we considered on top of nurse's aid hours is vaccines. Thankfully, this facility provided the pneumonia vaccine to 94.48276 percent of its patients. This nursing home keeps its residents out of the hospital. It had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.
