Nurse Quality
We want to draw your attention to the fact that this facility received a much better grade for nursing than it received overall. In fact, it received one of our highest grades in that category with a score of A-. When determining a nursing home's nursing rating, we assess the amount of time nurses are caring for residents and the skill levels of the nurses. This nursing home averages 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also assessed several nursing quality measures and this nursing home excelled in some of these areas. With less than five percent of its residents sustaining pressure ulcers, it performed as well as any place the state in this category. This is generally a good indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can typically be avoided by providing better nursing care, such as having a protocol of turning patients even once per day.
Long-term Care Quality
We also gave this facility a favorable score in long-term care. This nursing home earned a grade of B in this area, which is one of our more favorable grades. Facilities that do well in this category typically provide residents with more supervision and stay on top of routine healthcare services. After considering the amount of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we then analyzed the nursing home's vaccination data. This nursing home vaccinated 96.12591 percent of its residents for pneumonia. Vaccines are critical to keeping patients healthy. Finally, this nursing home was able to limit hospitalizations.

Facility Inspections
This nursing home also earned a very favorable inspection score. In that area, we gave this facility a grade of B. Perhaps the most significant factor we consider in determining our inspection scores is deficiencies. Deficiencies can be found on a facility's recent inspection reports. Places with higher grades in this area typically dodged the more severe deficiencies involving things like patient abuse. This particular nursing home received 9 deficiencies on its inspection report. Overall, this is still a good inspection report, but we'd always recommend looking into any deficiencies you find troubling.
Short-term Care Quality
The final category we assessed is short-term care. This facility was awarded a C for this category. In computing our short-term care grades, we analyze the nursing home's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses, occupational therapists, physical therapists and other types of skilled professionals. Our goal is to create a barometer for sizing up the rehabilitation services of different facilities. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home employs registered nurses. Not every nursing home employs these skilled professionals. On the other hand, based on the information this nursing home provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. Lastly, we looked at the percentage of residents who were able to return to the community from this facility. We found that 3.2 percent of this facility's residents returned home. At most nursing homes, closer to half of their patients are able to return home so this figure is below average.
