Facility Inspections
To go along with its strong overall grade, we awarded this nursing home a grade of A+ for our inspections rating. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in determining our inspection grades. One critical factor is deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of these deficiencies is arguably more important than the number of deficiencies, as some of these can be relatively minor. Fortunately, although this place had some minor dings on its government inspection report, it had no severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are ones found in categories G, H, I, J, K and L. This means the inspectors didn't consider any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient safety or health. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.
Long-term Care Quality
This facility was awarded high grades in the category of long-term care as well. In fact, we awarded it one of our most superb grades in that area with a score of A. Nursing homes that excel in long-term care tend to provide residents with better supervision and stay on top of routine medical care. One of the criteria we considered in addition to nursing hours is vaccines. This nursing home provided the pneumonia vaccination to 99.004974 percent of its residents. This is a great way to minimize unnecessary deaths and hospitalizations for the senior population. Finally, this facility was able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had only 0.04 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.

Short-term Care Quality
We also gave this nursing home a middle of the road grade in the area of short-term care, with a B-. Our short-term care grade is generally used to measure a nursing home's rehabilitation services To offer highly scored rehabilitation services, nursing homes generally need to provide higher levels of highly skilled nursing services. These types of services include registered nurses, physical therapists, respiratory therapists and other licensed professionals. We were not able to locate registered nurse or physical therapy staffing data for this nursing home. The final statistic we assessed in this area is the percentage of residents that ultimately were able to return home from the nursing home. We found that just 5.8 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home. Unfortunately, this was below average.
Nurse Quality
This nursing home's least impressive category was nursing, which is the last area we scored. It received an F for this area. Even with a few excellent grades in other categories, this grade is nevertheless a bit alarming so we wanted to make a note of it. When determining a nursing home's nursing rating, we look at the amount of time nurses are seeing residents as well as the level of skill of the nurses. This nursing home offered just 0.4 hours of nursing care per patient daily. Unfortunately, this facility also did not fare as well as we hoped in some of the quality measures we looked at for this category.
