Registered Staff Hours
Facility Inspections
On top of faring well overall, this facility earned a nearly flawless inspection report. Consequently, it earned one of our best grades in that category with an A+. Perhaps the most critical factor we consider in computing our inspection ratings is deficiencies. Deficiencies can be found on a facility's recent inspection reports. Places with better scores in this category most likely dodged the most severe deficiencies involving things like patient abuse. Unfortunately, it does not look like we have deficiency counts for this nursing home. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.
Short-term Care Quality
Adding to its dominant resume, this facility also excelled in our short-term care area. In fact, we awarded it a grade of A for the category. Short-term care scores are based in part on the nursing home's quantity of highly-skilled nursing services. This includes a wide range of services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and speech therapists, in addition to other types of therapy. Fortunately, it appear that this facility employs registered nurses. Not all nursing homes employs these skilled professionals. However, according to the data they provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. Lastly, we considered the percentage of residents who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. We found that 6.6 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home.

Long-term Care Quality
In addition, this facility also was awarded favorable long-term care scores this year. Indeed, we gave them one of our stronger grades in that area, with a grade of B+. For prospective patients seeking a permanent place to live as opposed to rehabilitation, long-term care grades are a key measure. In addition to assessing the amount of care provided by nurses and other staff, we looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This facility vaccinated 77.099236 percent of its patients, which is somewhat below what we anticipated. Clearly, this facility is doing something right in this area as it also excelled at keeping its patients out of the hospital. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.
Nurse Quality
The final category we scored is nursing, in which this facility was awarded a grade of B. Even though this proved to be its poorest category rating, this is still a good rating. We looked at the skill-level of nurses at the facility, as well as the number of hours those nurses spent with residents, in computing our score in this category. This nursing home averages 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Lastly, we also assessed certain nursing quality measures in computing our nursing grades. These include minimizing residents' pressure ulcers and major falls. We look at these areas as good measures of the caliber of nursing care provided, since better care tends to reduce these problems.
