This facility vaccinated 68.27731 percent of its residents. This is a few points lower than we anticipated but still a decent figure. While its vaccination rate was a bit lower than we hoped for, at least this facility was able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.

Turning to another strength for this nursing home, we awarded them one of our more positive grades in our short-term care category as well, with a grade of B.

These types of services include registered nurses, physical therapists, occupational therapists and other highly trained professionals. It does not look like this nursing home provided information about its staffing of registered nurses or physical therapists. Finally, we assessed the percentage of patients who were able to return to the community from this nursing home. We found that 6.4 percent of this facility's residents returned home.
