Turning to another strength for this nursing home, we gave them one of our higher grades in our short-term care category as well, with a grade of B. Our short-term care grades are likely most important for folks in need of rehabilitation from their nursing home. Rehabilitation typically requires more highly-skilled nursing. Skilled nursing means not just nursing, but also physical and occupational therapy, as well as other types of therapy. It does not appear that this nursing home provided data regarding its registered nurse or physical therapy staffing. Finally, we considered the percentage of residents that were able to return home from this facility. We found that 5.5 percent of this nursing home's patients were able to return home.
Long-term Care Quality
Our next category is long-term care, in which we gave this nursing home a B- in that category. If you are looking for services other than rehabilitation, you should take a close look at each facility's long-term care scores. In addition to considering the quantity of care provided by aids and other staff, we analyzed the percentage of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This facility vaccinated 100 percent of its patients. This nursing home was able to keep its patients out of the hospital. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.
