Clearly, this place is doing something right in this area as it also excelled at keeping its residents out of the hospital. It had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.

Short-term Care Quality

Grade: B

The next category we analyzed was short-term care. This facility was given a very positive short-term care score, with a grade of B in this category. Our short-term care grade is generally employed to assess a facility's performance with rehabilitation In order to have quality rehabilitation services, nursing homes generally need to provide better levels of skilled nursing.

We were not able to locate registered nurse or physical therapy staffing data for this facility. The final datapoint we considered in this area is the number of residents who were able to leave the nursing home and return to the community. We discovered that 6 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home.

Grade: C

The last category we graded was nursing. This facility was given a C for this area. There are a variety of criteria within this category. Many of these criteria are tied to nurse staffing. This facility provided just 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient daily. This is a low total compared to most other nursing homes. Lastly, despite not having the highest total nursing hours per resident, this nursing home performed admirably in the area of preventing major falls. This is generally a good indicator that a facility has sufficient quality controls in place.
