This nursing home was given an impressive long-term care grade as well. We gave it one of our better scores in that area with a score of B. Nursing homes that do well in this category typically provide patients with more supervision and stay on top of routine medical care. After looking at the amount of care provided by aids and other staff, we turned to the nursing home's vaccination statistics. This nursing home vaccinated 96.74797 percent of its patients for pneumonia, which is better than most nursing homes. Finally, this nursing home was able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.
Short-term Care Quality
The final area we looked at is short-term care. We awarded this facility a B- in that area. Short-term care grades are critical for residents needing rehabilitation. Rehabilitation usually utilizes more highly-skilled nursing services. This includes a wide range of services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and speech therapists, as well as other forms of therapy. Fortunately, it appear that this facility employs registered nurses. Not every facility employs these skilled professionals. On the other hand, according to the data this nursing home provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. The last statistic we considered in this area is the number of residents who were able to leave the nursing home and return home. We discovered that just 4 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home, which is below average.
