Facility Inspections
In addition to being a respectable nursing home overall, this facility really excelled in the area of inspections, where it received an A+. Few facilities performed better in this category. These inspection ratings weigh several factors, including deficiencies, substantiated complaints and federal fines. You can find more information about each of these items by reviewing copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. While this facility had a few deficiencies on its inspection report, none were severe based on CMS' scale. The fact that none of the deficiencies were severe made us feel better about this inspection report.
Long-term Care Quality
This nursing home's next best area was its long-term care grade, where it was awarded a grade of B-. For prospective residents seeking a permanent residence rather than skilled nursing, long-term care is a very important category. On top of assessing the quantity of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we also looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. Frankly, we were a bit bothered by the fact that this facility administered the vaccine to just 77.37226 percent of its residents. Nevertheless, this place excelled at keeping its residents out of the hospital. It had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Short-term Care Quality
We also gave this facility a solid score in the category of short-term care, where we awarded it a B-. Our short-term care grades are thought to be more meaningful for those requiring a nursing home for rehabilitation. Rehabilitation typically requires additional skilled nursing. Skilled nursing includes not just nursing services, but also physical and respiratory therapy, as well as other variations of therapy. Fortunately, it appear that this facility employs registered nurses. 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. Lastly, we looked at the number of patients who were able to return to the community from this facility. We found that 5.1 percent of this facility's residents returned home. At most nursing homes, closer to half of their residents are able to return home so this figure is below average.
Nurse Quality
The last category we analyzed was nursing. Unfortunately, we gave it an abysmal F in this area, which is a very poor score. This is clearly a significant disappointment. Our nursing rating includes a handful of subcategories, many of which are based on levels of nurse staffing. This facility provided just 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a very low total compared to most nursing homes. To go along with its low totals in the area of nursing hours per patient, this nursing home also did not fare as well in the quality-based measures we looked at in determining our nursing grades. We looked at the percentage of residents sustaining pressure ulcers and major falls. This facility had more falls and pressure ulcers than the average nursing home.
