In addition to performing well in its overall grade, this nursing home performed at an even higher level in the area of inspections. In fact, it received a nearly flawless inspection report this year. As a result, it received one of our highest grades in that category with a score of A-. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in calculating our inspection ratings. One key factor is deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of the deficiencies is arguably more meaningful than the quantity of deficiencies, as some deficiencies end up being quite minor. It doesn't look like we were able to find deficiency counts for this nursing home. We wish we had more data for this facility. Without deficiency related data, it is a challenge to assess it in terms of this category.

Adding to its profile, this facility also earned a grade of B for its nursing rating. This is a well above average score in this category.

This facility also was given a favorable short-term care score. Indeed, we awarded it an above average score of B in this area. Our short-term care grade is often used to assess a nursing home's performance with rehabilitation To provide high-end rehabilitation services, facilities generally need to provide better levels of highly skilled nursing services. These types of services include registered nurses, physical therapists, respiratory therapists and other licensed professionals.
