Short-term Care Quality
This nursing home really excelled in the area of short-term care. We gave it a grade of A- for that category, which is one of our highest grades. This really boosted its profile. In the area of short-term care, we endeavor to assess indicators of a facility's rehabilitation services. We look at the facility's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses and physical and occupational therapists. Fortunately, it looks like this facility has registered nurses on staff. Not every nursing home employs these types of nurses. However, according to the information they provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. Lastly, we assessed the percentage of patients who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. We found that 5.9 percent of this facility's residents returned home.
Nurse Quality
We also wanted to emphasize the fact that this facility earned an impressive grade of B+ in the category of nursing. In computing our nursing grades, we weigh both nursing hours and the levels of licensure of the nurses. This facility provided 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Lastly, we also assessed some nursing quality-based metrics in determining our nursing grades. This facility performed very well when it comes to avoiding pressure ulcers and major falls. We consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.

You can find more information about each of these issues by obtaining copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. Although this facility had a few deficiencies on its inspection report, none were major deficiencies based on CMS' scale. A few relatively minor dings are not necessarily the end of the world.
Long-term Care Quality
Moving on to our final category, we gave this nursing home a D for our long-term care category. This was the nursing home's weakest category score. Unfortunately, this grade hurt the nursing home's overall profile to a certain degree. In a long-term care setting, the nursing home's primary objective is to maintain residents' quality of life and keep them safe. Once we finished looking at the volume of nursing care, we turned to the nursing home's vaccination statistics. We were pleased to discover that this nursing home vaccinates 99.570816 percent of its patients for pneumonia. Surprisingly, this facility also fared well at keeping its patients out of the hospital. It had only 0.02 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days. Sadly, a few of its other scores in this category were not as favorable as these.
