Although we gave this facility a terrible overall grade, we awarded it a grade of B- for our long-term care rating. In determining these long-term care grades, we assess the nursing home's ability to maintain its permanent residents' health and quality of life. One of the datapoints we considered in addition to nursing hours is vaccinations. Fortunately, this nursing home provided the pneumonia vaccination to 100 percent of its residents. Lastly, this facility was able to limit hospitalizations. With just 1.35 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, this facility had fewer hospitalizations than many nursing homes.

Lastly, our nursing scores also factor in quality-based assessments, such as avoiding major falls. Although this facility didn't have as many nursing hours as many other nursing homes we assessed, it was still better than average in the area of avoiding major falls.
