Long-term Care Quality
This facility really excelled in the area of long-term care, where we awarded it a score of A-. Not many nursing homes performed more favorably in this category. Long-term care ratings of this caliber generally require both around the clock care from nurses and aids, as well as quality routine healthcare services. On top of considering the amount of care provided by aids and other staff, we also looked at the number of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This nursing home vaccinated 99.65753 percent of its patients, which is very impressive. Pneumonia sadly can be a dangerous health condition for nursing home patients so we prefer when a facility doesn't roll the dice on this issue. Finally, we looked at its number of hospitalizations. Although it had 2.13 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, its risk adjusted statistic was close to the national average due to it having some more complex patients.

This facility received its next highest category grade in the category of short-term care. We awarded this facility a grade of C in this category, which is a decent grade. Short-term care grades are often employed to score a facility's rehabilitation services In order to provide good rehabilitation services, nursing homes generally need to provide better levels of skilled nursing services. Skilled nursing includes registered nurses, physical therapists, respiratory therapists and other types of therapists. This nursing home employs both physical therapists and registered nurses. Not all facilities employ these skilled professionals. Lastly, we looked at the number of patients who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. It performed decently in this area, with 48.6 percent of its patients returning home.
