In addition to being a respectable facility overall, this place also excelled in the area of inspections, where it earned a grade of A+. Few nursing homes performed better in this area. Our inspection grades are based on many pieces of information located in the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Places that receive favorable grades in this category tend to have very few deficiencies on those reports. Most importantly, these nursing homes should not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with endangerment of patients.

Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.
Long-term Care Quality
We also would like to point out that this facility was awarded a strong long-term care grade. Indeed, we gave it one of our most favorable scores in that category with a score of A. Long-term care scores of this caliber generally require both 24/7 care from nurses and aids, as well as quality routine medical care.

This facility vaccinated 99.71591 percent of its residents. Vaccines are critical to keeping residents out of the hospital.

Lastly, we also looked at some nursing quality-based metrics in calculating our nursing ratings. This place fared well in terms of minimizing its residents' major falls and pressure ulcers.
Short-term Care Quality
Moving on to our next category, this nursing home didn't perform very well. Due to a poor grade of F in short-term care, this is this nursing home's weakest category. In computing our short-term care scores, we analyze a facility's levels of highly skilled nursing services, which includes registered nurses, physical therapists speech therapists and other types of therapists. This score is often a solid measure of a nursing home's ability to rehabilitate patients. Unfortunately, this nursing home was below average in terms of its quantity of physical therapy and registered nurse hours provided to its residents based on the measures we assessed. Finally, we looked at the percentage of patients that were able to return home from this facility. This facility didn't fare well here either. In fact, we found that just 4.7 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home.
