Based on our assessment, this nursing home has some redeeming qualities.

Facility Inspections
To go along with its relatively modest overall grade, we awarded this nursing home an A for its inspection grade. This score is far better than the facility's overall grade. Our inspection scores account for a host of factors included in a facility's inspection reports. One key criteria we look at is the number and severity of deficiencies. Nursing homes with higher grades in this category typically have very few severe deficiencies. This nursing home received 5 deficiencies on its inspection report, but none of the deficiencies were considered to be severe. This tells you that the government inspectors did not deem any of these deficiencies to pose an immediate risk to patient health or safety. We should point out that deficiency-free inspections are uncommon in the industry.
Long-term Care Quality
One of this facility's better category grades came in the area of long-term care. This proved to be its second best category. In that area, we gave this nursing home a grade of B-. Our long-term care grades are more critical for folks requiring more conventional assistance associated with activities of daily living. In addition to looking at the quantity of care provided by nurses and other staff, we analyzed the number of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This nursing home provided the vaccine to 99.30556 percent of its residents, which is higher than the average nursing home. Lastly, we looked at the nursing home's number of hospitalizations. Here we found that this nursing home had 2.81 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days. Although this figure is somewhat concerning, this statistic may be skewed for some nursing homes based on the medical complexity of patients.
Nurse Quality
The next highest grade we gave this nursing home in any area came in the category of nursing, where we gave it a grade of B-. The nursing score weighs quite a few subcategories, most of which are associated with nursing hours. This nursing home provides only 2.9 hours of nursing care per patient each day. This is a somewhat uninspiring figure as it is well below the national average. Finally, although this facility got dinged a bit for its nursing hours per resident, it excelled in some of our quality-based metrics. With fewer than five percent of its patients experiencing pressure ulcers, it performed remarkably well in this area.
Short-term Care Quality
This facility's weakest category was short-term care, which is the last area we analyzed. For this category, we awarded this facility a D. Our short-term care scores are considered to be more meaningful for individuals needing a nursing home for rehabilitation. Rehabilitation generally mandates additional highly-skilled nursing. Skilled nursing includes not only nursing services, but also physical and respiratory therapy, as well as other forms of therapy. In this facility's case, it looks like it provides fewer physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than the typical facility. The last measure we looked at in this category is the percentage of residents that ultimately were able to return home from the facility. This nursing home struggled quite a bit in this metric as well, with just 34.8 percent of its residents returning home.
