Short-term Care Quality
One of the many reasons this turned out to be a great facility is that it received a very impressive short-term care grade. In that category, we gave this nursing home a grade of A. Our short-term care grade is typically used to measure a facility's performance with rehabilitation. In order to provide highly scored rehabilitation services, facilities generally must have higher levels of highly skilled nursing services. These types of services include registered nurses, physical therapists, occupational therapists and other highly skilled individuals. Fortunately, it looks like this facility has registered nurses on staff. Not every facility employs these types of nurses. However, based on the information they provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. The final measure we looked at in this area is the percentage of residents who were able to return home from the nursing home. We found that 0 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home as opposed to remaining at the facility on a permanent basis.

This nursing home vaccinated 100 percent of its residents against pneumonia, which is far higher than most nursing homes. Clearly, this facility is doing something right in this area as it was able to keep its patients out of the hospital.
