Most importantly, these places should not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with endangerment of patients. This particular nursing home had just a single deficiency on its inspection report and it was not one deemed to pose a threat to patient health or safety.

Our short-term care scores are thought to be more important for those in need of rehabilitation services. Rehabilitation generally requires additional skilled nursing services. This means not merely nursing services, but also physical and occupational therapy, as well as other types of therapy. Unfortunately, we weren't able to locate registered nurse or physical therapy staffing data for this place. The final statistic we considered in this area is the percentage of residents who were able to leave the nursing home and return home. We discovered that just 5.8 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home, which is below average.
