Facility Inspections
To go along with its strong overall grade, we awarded this nursing home a grade of A+ for our inspections rating. Arguably 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 higher scores in this category typically avoided the most severe deficiencies involving health risks or even death. Unfortunately, it does not look like we have deficiency counts for this nursing home. We would like to have more data for this facility. Without having access to the information regarding deficiencies, it is difficult to really grade this facility in the inspections category.
Short-term Care Quality
This facility is also above average in the category of short-term care, where it received a grade of B+. It performed more favorably than most nursing homes in this category. In computing these short-term care ratings, we look at the nursing home's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses, speech therapists, physical therapists and other types of skilled professionals. Our purpose is to formulate a barometer for comparing the rehabilitation services of nursing homes. Fortunately, it looks like this facility has registered nurses on staff. Not all facilities employs these types of nurses. On the other hand, based on the information this nursing home provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. The last item we considered in this category is the percentage of patients who were able to leave the nursing home and return to the community. We found that 6 percent of this facility's patients returned home.

Nurse Quality
Next, we looked at the nursing category where we awarded this nursing home a grade of B-. This facility didn't perform quite as well in this category as it did in some other categories. Nevertheless, this is still a respectable score. In computing our nursing scores, we analyze both the number of hours nurses spend with residents and the training levels of those nurses. 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. Finally, although this nursing home got dinged a bit for its nursing hours, it excelled in some of our quality measures. With fewer than five percent of its residents sustaining pressure ulcers, it performed very well in this metric.
Long-term Care Quality
Turning to our final category, this nursing home didn't perform very well. With a very poor grade of F in that category, this is notably this nursing home's worst category. Nursing homes that do not fare well in long-term care typically are not as well-staffed and are lagging in some of the areas of routine medical care we looked at. One of the statistics we considered after nurse's aid hours is vaccinations. We were a bit concerned this facility provided the pneumonia vaccine to just 54.545456 percent of its residents. Surprisingly, this place was actually able to limit hospitalizations. With just 0 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, this facility has less hospitalizations than many nursing homes. This is its best score in this category.
