Facility Inspections
To go along with its relatively modest overall grade, we awarded this nursing home a grade of A for our inspections rating. This is far better than its overall score. Perhaps the most significant factor we consider in calculating our inspection grades is deficiencies. These deficiencies can be found on a nursing home's inspection reports. Places with higher grades in this category typically avoided the more severe deficiencies involving things like patient abuse. This particular nursing home received 6 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.
Nurse Quality
This facility's second best category grade came in the area of nursing. In that category, we gave this nursing home a grade of B-. Nursing grades are primarily based on the facility's nurse staffing. This facility provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a relatively low total compared to most other facilities. Lastly, nursing scores also factor in quality-based measures, such as preventing major falls. Despite not having the most impressive total nursing hours per resident, this nursing home performed admirably in the metric of preventing major falls. This is typically a good indicator that a facility has quality controls in place. Many falls could be avoided if a facility provides enough nurses aids to assist its residents.

Short-term Care Quality
This nursing home's next most favorable category is short-term care. We awarded it a B- in this area. This is essentially a middle of the road score in this area. In the area of short-term care, we attempt to assess indicators of a nursing home's rehabilitation services. We look at the facility's skilled nursing services, such as the ones performed by registered nurses and various therapists. Fortunately, it looks like this facility employs registered nurses. Not every nursing home employs these types of nurses. However, based on the information they provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. The final datapoint we considered in this area is the number of patients who were able to leave the nursing home and return to the community. We discovered that just 0 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home, which is below average.
Long-term Care Quality
The final category we rated is long-term care. We gave this nursing home a grade of B- in this category. With our long-term care rating, we analyze the sheer volume of services offered by a facility, as well as a handful of quality data points. After we finished looking at the quantity of nursing care, we turned to the facility's vaccination statistics. We were a bit worried that this nursing home vaccinated just 73.48067 percent of its patients against pneumonia. Fortunately, this facility was able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.
