Facility Inspections
Although we were not high on this nursing home overall, we awarded it a B for our inspections rating. This score is much better than the nursing home's overall score. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in determining our inspection ratings. One critical factor is health deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of the deficiencies is arguably more meaningful than the number of deficiencies, as some deficiencies can be quite insignificant. This nursing home received 3 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none of the deficiencies were considered to be severe. This means that the inspectors did not consider any of these deficiencies to cause an immediate threat to patient health or safety. A few minor deficiencies aren't the end of the world.
Long-term Care Quality
One of this nursing home's more respectable category grades came in the category of long-term care. This turned out to be its second most favorable category. In that category, we awarded this nursing home a B-. Our long-term care grade assesses a nursing home's personal care rather than the skilled nursing or medical services that are critical to a skilled nursing facility. On top of looking at the amount of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we analyzed the number of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. As it turns out, this facility provided the vaccine to just 90.12346 percent of its residents, which is several points lower than we expected. Nevertheless, this place was able to keep its residents out of the hospital. Indeed, it had only 0.01 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.

Nurse Quality
This nursing home actually received a decent grade in the area of nursing as well. We awarded it a grade of C for that category, which is not a bad score. There are several subcategories within this category. Most of the subcategories relate to nurse staffing. This nursing home provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident each day. This is a low total compared with most facilities. Finally, while this place got docked a bit for its nursing hours, it excelled in a few of our quality-based metrics. With less than five percent of its patients suffering from pressure ulcers, it performed remarkably well in this area.
Short-term Care Quality
This facility's least impressive category was short-term care, which is the final area we assessed. For this area, we gave this nursing home a D. Our short-term care scores are believed to be most meaningful for residents in need of rehabilitation services. Rehabilitation usually mandates more highly-skilled nursing services. Skilled nursing means not only nursing services, but also physical and occupational therapy, as well as other forms of therapy. As you might expect, we found that this nursing home offers significantly less physical therapist and registered nurse hours per patient than the average facility. Lastly, we assessed the number of residents who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. This definitely was not a strength for this nursing home. We found that just 4.8 percent of this facility's residents returned home. At most facilities, around half of their residents are able to return home so this is well below average.
