Facility Inspections
On top of faring well overall, this nursing home also received nearly flawless government inspections. As a result, it received one of our highest scores in that area with an A+. Our inspection ratings weigh a host of factors found on a facility's inspection report. One of the most important criteria we consider is the number and severity of deficiencies. Places with better grades in this area tend to have few severe deficiencies. Although this facility had a few deficiencies on its government inspection report, none were serious based on CMS' deficiency scale. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.
Long-term Care Quality
This nursing home also received a very impressive long-term care score. In fact, this is this nursing home's second strongest category score. In that area, we gave this facility a score of A-. Nursing homes that receive this type of grade in this category tend to provide consistent around the clock care to make sure residents are kept in good health. On top of assessing the volume of care provided by nurses and other staff, we also looked at the number of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This facility administered the vaccine to 100 percent of its residents, which is very impressive. Pneumonia sadly can be a deadly illness for nursing home patients so we strongly prefer when a facility does not leave its residents vulnerable. Finally, this nursing home was able to limit hospitalizations. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.

Nurse Quality
In addition, this facility also received favorable nursing grades this year. In fact, we awarded them one of our better scores in that area, with a grade of B+. Nursing grades are based largely on levels of nurse staffing. This nursing home provides 0.5 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, our nursing grades also factor in quality-based assessments, such as avoiding major falls. This nursing home 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 often be prevented if more nurses aids and better safety protocols are in place.
Short-term Care Quality
The next area we scored is short-term care. We gave this facility one of our higher grades in this area, with a B. Although this wasn't as high as a few of this nursing home's other grades, it is nevertheless a positive score. Our short-term care ratings are likely most important for those needing rehabilitation from their nursing home. Rehabilitation generally mandates additional highly-skilled nursing services. Skilled nursing includes not only nursing services, but also physical and respiratory therapy, as well as other types of therapy. Fortunately, it looks like this facility has registered nurses on staff. Not every facility employs these skilled professionals. On the other hand, according to the data they provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. Finally, we assessed the number of residents that ultimately were able to return home from this facility. We found that 4.3 percent of this nursing home's residents were able to return home.
