This facility vaccinated 100 percent of its residents against pneumonia, which is significantly higher than the vast majority of nursing homes. Clearly, this nursing home is doing something right in this area as it was able to keep its residents out of the hospital.

Not every facility employs these skilled professionals. However, according to the information this nursing home provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists.
