Registered Staff Hours
Short-term Care Quality
This nursing home excelled in the category of short-term care, with an A- in this area. Our short-term care grades are meaningful for patients looking for rehabilitation. Rehabilitation usually mandates additional highly-skilled nursing. Skilled nursing means a wide scope of services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and respiratory therapists, as well as other forms of therapy. Fortunately, it looks like this facility employs registered nurses. Not every facility employs these types of nurses. However, based on the information they provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. The final metric we looked at in this category is the percentage of residents who were able to leave the nursing home and return home. We discovered that 5.1 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home.
Facility Inspections
Inspections is another category where this facility excelled. We gave this facility an B+ for our inspections rating. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in computing these inspection scores. One key factor is health deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of these deficiencies is arguably more important than the quantity of deficiencies, as some of these are relatively insignificant. While this facility had some minor dings on its inspection report, it had no severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are found in categories G, H, I, J, K and L. This means that the inspectors didn't deem any of the deficiencies on this facility's report to pose an imminent threat to patient health or safety. We should note that deficiency-free inspections are rare in this industry.

Nurse Quality
This nursing home also received a strong nursing grade. In fact, we awarded it a grade of B in that category, which is one of our better scores. The nursing score includes a host of datapoints. The most heavily weighted one is the amount of time nurses spend with residents. This facility provided 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, our nursing grades also factor in quality-based assessments, such as avoiding major falls. This facility performed well in this area. Avoiding major falls is typically a good indicator that a facility has reliable quality controls in place. Major falls can frequently be avoided if more nurses aids and better safety protocols are in place.
Long-term Care Quality
The final area we analyzed was long-term care, which proved to be this facility's weakest category. We awarded this facility a grade of D in this category. Of course, this grade hurt the facility's overall grade a bit. Long-term care grades of this caliber generally are a bad sign for the quantity and quality of care provided by nurses and aids, as well as the levels of routine medical care available. After assessing the quantity of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we turned to the nursing home's vaccination data. We were somewhat surprised to discover that this facility vaccinated only 51.912567 percent of its residents against pneumonia. To our surprise, this nursing home was actually decent at keeping its patients out of the hospital. It had only 0.03 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days. This was its best feature in this category.
