The objective is to devise a measure for sizing up the rehabilitation services of different facilities. Fortunately, it appear that this facility has registered nurses on staff. Not every facility employs these types of nurses. On the other hand, based on the information they provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. The last item we assessed in this area is the number of residents who were able to leave the nursing home and return home. We found that 0 percent of this nursing home's patients were able to return home.
