Short-term Care Quality
Even though we didn't give this facility a good overall grade, we gave it a very strong score for short-term care, where it earned a B. This is better than many nursing homes in this category. To some degree, this propped up an otherwise abysmal profile. In our short-term care score, we seek to craft a valuable gauge for rehabilitation. In this process, we assess a nursing home's scope of highly-skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as speech therapy. Fortunately, it looks like this facility has registered nurses on staff. Not every nursing home employs these types of nurses. However, based on the data they provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. The last measure we assessed in this category is the number of patients who were able to leave the nursing home and return to the community. We found that 5.7 percent of this nursing home's residents were able to return home.
Facility Inspections
We also awarded this nursing home a grade of B- for our inspections rating. This score is a more impressive than the facility's overall grade. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in computing these inspection ratings. One critical factor is deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of these deficiencies is arguably more meaningful than the number of deficiencies, as some of these are quite insignificant. Amazingly, this was one of the few nursing homes in the country that had no deficiencies whatsoever on its inspection report. This is very impressive. Not having any deficiencies proved to be this place's best achievement.

Nurse Quality
Unfortunately, we gave this facility an F for its nursing grade. Our nursing grade is mostly associated with the nursing home's nurse staffing. This particular place averaged just 0.4 hours of nursing care per patient daily. This figure is far below the national average. Lastly, we also assessed some nursing quality-based metrics in computing our nursing grades. This facility performed well in terms of avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers.
Long-term Care Quality
The last area we looked at was long-term care. This facility was given a rock bottom grade of F in that category. For prospective residents looking for a permanent place to live as opposed to rehabilitation, long-term care is a very important category. In addition to considering the volume of care provided by aids and other staff, we looked at the number of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This facility vaccinated 97.85479 percent of its patients. Surprisingly, this facility was able to limit hospitalizations. With only 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, this facility had fewer hospitalizations than most nursing homes. Unfortunately, a few of its other scores in this category weren't as favorable as these.
