Facility Inspections
In addition to being a respectable facility overall, this place really excelled in the category of inspections, where it earned an A. Few nursing homes performed better in this area. Our inspection grades are based on many datapoints found on the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Facilities that score well in this area typically have very few deficiencies on those reports. Most importantly, these facilities generally do not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with risks to patient safety. Fortunately, although this place had a few minor dings on its report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are found in categories G, H, I, J, K and L. This tells you that the inspectors didn't deem any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient safety or health. A couple of minor deficiencies should not lead you to cross a nursing home off your list.
Long-term Care Quality
This facility also received a positive long-term care score. As a matter of fact, we gave it a B in this area, which happens to be one of our more favorable scores. In a long-term care setting, the facility's primary objective is to maintain patients' quality of life and keep them safe. Once we looked at the quantity of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we next considered the facility's vaccination records. This facility vaccinated 76 percent of its residents against pneumonia, which is slightly below what we were hoping for but still a reasonably acceptable percentage. Clearly, this facility is doing something right in this area as it was able to keep its residents out of the hospital. Indeed, it had only 0.02 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.

Nurse Quality
Another strength of this nursing home is its favorable grade in nursing. We awarded them one of our better scores in that area, with a score of D. The nursing score features numerous factors. The most heavily weighted variable is the quantity of hours nurses spend with residents. This nursing home offered only 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is well below average. Finally, we also looked at some nursing quality-based metrics in determining our nursing grades. This nursing home fared well when it comes to minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls.
Short-term Care Quality
The final category we graded was short-term care, which was a weak link for this nursing home. We awarded this nursing home a grade of D in the area of short-term care. Short-term care grades are often used to grade a nursing home's rehabilitation services. In order to offer good rehabilitation services, facilities generally must have higher levels of skilled nursing. Skilled nursing includes registered nurses, physical therapists, speech therapists and other highly skilled individuals. Given its weak rating in this area, we weren't shocked to discover that this nursing home offered far fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than most other facilities. Finally, we assessed the percentage of patients who were able to return to the community from this facility. We found that just 5.1 percent of this facility's patients returned home.
