Facility Inspections
The primary reason this nursing home received a decent overall score is its impeccable government inspections in recent years. We gave them one of our better scores in that area, with an A. This is a notably better grade than the facility's overall score, which was decent but certainly not elite. Perhaps the most critical factor we look at in calculating our inspection ratings is deficiencies. Deficiencies are found on a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Nursing homes with higher scores in this category most likely dodged the most severe deficiencies involving patient abuse or death. While this place had some minor dings on its government inspection report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are those found in categories G through L. This tells you the inspectors did not deem any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient safety or health. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.
Long-term Care Quality
Turning to the category of long-term care, we gave this nursing home a score of A- in that area. For long-term care residents, the facility's primary goal is to maintain residents' quality of life and keep them safe. After looking at the volume of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we then looked at the facility's vaccination statistics. This facility vaccinated 90.47619 percent of its patients against pneumonia, which happens to be slightly lower than we anticipated but still a decent percentage. Clearly, this facility is doing something right in this area as it was able to keep its residents out of the hospital. It had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.

Short-term Care Quality
As it turns out, this facility only received a grade of D for its short-term care grade, which is not a very good score. Short-term care grades are typically employed to gauge a facility's performance with rehabilitation In order to provide highly graded rehabilitation services, nursing homes generally need to have better levels of skilled nursing services. Skilled nursing includes registered nurses, physical therapists, occupational therapists and other types of therapists. It appears that this facility was subpar in multiple staffing metrics we focus on. In fact, it offered fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than most other nursing homes. The final item we assessed in this area is the number of patients that returned home from the nursing home. This facility struggled quite a bit in this area as well, with just 4.4 percent of its patients returning home.
Nurse Quality
The next category we graded is nursing, which was this facility's worst area. Unfortunately, we gave it an F in this area, which is clearly very disappointing. When calculating our nursing scores, we assess both staffing levels and the levels of licensure of those nurses. This nursing home offered a meager 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. In addition to its subpar nursing hour totals, this place received poor marks in several of the quality-based measures we considered in determining our nursing ratings. We found that more of this nursing home's residents experienced falls leading to major injury.
