Short-term Care Quality
In addition to performing well overall, this nursing home earned an excellent short-term care score. In fact, we gave it an A in that category. Our short-term care grade is commonly employed to gauge a facility's rehabilitation services. In order to provide quality rehabilitation services, nursing homes generally must feature higher levels of highly skilled nursing services. These types of services include registered nurses, physical therapists, respiratory therapists and other highly skilled individuals. Unfortunately, it does not appear that this facility provided information on registered nurse or physical therapist staffing. The final measure we considered in this area is the percentage of patients who were able to leave the facility and return to the community. We found that 6.5 percent of this nursing home's patients were able to return home.
Facility Inspections
This facility has received near flawless health inspections in recent years. We awarded them an impressive grade of A- in this category.

It should be noted that the severity of deficiencies is arguably more meaningful than the quantity of deficiencies, as some end up being relatively minor. It does not look like we were able to find deficiency data for this nursing home. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

After considering the quantity of nursing care, we then looked at the nursing home's vaccination statistics. This facility vaccinated 100 percent of its patients against pneumonia, which is very impressive.

Indeed, it had only 0 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.
