However, according to the data this nursing home provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. Finally, we assessed the percentage of residents who who were able to eventually return home from this nursing home. We found that 0 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home.

This was one of just a few weak points of a strong profile. For residents in need of a permanent residence as opposed to skilled nursing, long-term care is an important category.

We were pleased to find that this facility vaccinated 96.49682 percent of its residents against pneumonia.
