Short-term Care Quality
While we graded this nursing home incredibly poorly overall, it received a fairly respectable short-term care rating this year. We gave it a C in that area, which was the closest thing to a bright spot we can find for this nursing home. Our short-term care ratings are based in part on the nursing home's quantity of skilled skilled healthcare professionals. This means a vast scope of nursing services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and occupational therapists, in addition to other forms of therapy. Unfortunately, we found that this place provided fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than most other nursing homes. The key is determining what effect this had on quality of care. The last measure we considered in this category is the number of residents who were able to leave the nursing home and return home. We discovered that just 5.3 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home, which is below average.
Long-term Care Quality
Remarkably, we awarded this nursing home a C for our long-term care grade, which isn't a bad grade. In the area of long-term care, we focus on the amount of care provided by a nursing home, rather than more medically-intensive services. After assessing the volume of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we turned to the facility's vaccination records. This nursing home vaccinated 95.652176 percent of its patients for pneumonia, which is better than the average nursing home. This place also excelled at keeping its patients out of the hospital. It had only 0.03 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.
