Facility Inspections
In addition to having a decent overall rating, we also wanted to point out that this place earned favorable inspections in recent years. We awarded them one of our better grades in this area, with a B+. This is a notably better grade than the facility's overall grade. These inspection ratings take several factors into consideration, including deficiencies, substantiated complaints and federal fines. You can learn more about each of these factors by reviewing copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. While this facility had some deficiencies on its report, none of them were serious based on CMS' deficiency scale. A few minor deficiencies should not stop you from considering a nursing home.
Long-term Care Quality
One of this nursing home's higher category grades was in the area of long-term care. This turned out to be its second most favorable category. In that category, we awarded this facility a grade of B-. For long-term care residents, the nursing home's primary objective is to maintain patients' quality of life and keep them safe. After we finished assessing the volume of nursing care, we then looked at the nursing home's vaccination statistics. We were pleased to learn that this nursing home vaccinated 100 percent of its patients for pneumonia. This nursing home keeps its patients out of the hospital. In fact, it had only 0.04 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.

Short-term Care Quality
We also awarded this facility a respectable grade in the area of short-term care, with a grade of C. In forming our short-term care grades, we assess the nursing home's skilled nursing services, including those performed by registered nurses, occupational therapists, physical therapists and other types of skilled professionals. The objective is to devise a scale for sizing up the rehabilitation services of various facilities. We were surprised to find that this facility was below average in the two key staffing areas we focus on. It provided fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than most other nursing homes. It is still important to determine whether this also correlates to a lower quality of care. Lastly, we assessed the number of residents who were able to return home from this nursing home. We found that 5.5 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home. This figure was actually quite a bit below the national average.
Nurse Quality
Switching gears to our final category, we gave this facility a D for nursing. This was the facility's weakest category grade. We analyzed the levels of nurses at the nursing home, as well as the quantity of hours the nurses spent with residents, in computing our rating in this category. This place averaged a meager 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident daily. This is well below average. Lastly, we also assessed some nursing quality measures in calculating our nursing grades. This facility fared well when it comes to minimizing its residents' pressure ulcers and major falls. Many consider these data points to be reliable measures of the quality of nursing care.
