Short-term Care Quality
This facility received a favorable short-term care score this year. We gave them a strong score in that category, with a B. Our short-term care grade is generally used to assess a facility's performance with rehabilitation. In order to have high-end rehabilitation services, facilities generally must offer better levels of highly skilled nursing services. These types of services include registered nurses, physical therapists, speech therapists and other types of therapists. Fortunately, it looks like this facility has registered nurses on staff. Not all facilities employs these skilled professionals. On the other hand, according to 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 facility and return home. We found that 0 percent of this facility's residents returned home.
Long-term Care Quality
Another one of this nursing home's more impressive category scores came in the category of long-term care. In that area, we gave this facility a grade of B. It actually outpaced most facilities in this category. Long-term care scores in this range generally require both around the clock care from nurses and aids, as well as quality routine healthcare services. After considering the volume of care provided by nurses, we then analyzed the facility's vaccination statistics. This facility vaccinated 99.54751 percent of its patients against pneumonia, which is an impressive figure. Pneumonia is too frequently a deadly condition for nursing home residents so we strongly prefer when a nursing home does not leave its residents vulnerable. Clearly, this facility is doing something right in this area as it also excelled at keeping its residents out of the hospital. It had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.
