Finally, our nursing grades also factor in quality-based assessments, such as avoiding major falls. This facility performed well in this area. Avoiding major falls is typically a good indicator that a nursing home has reliable quality controls in place. Major falls can often be prevented if more nurses aids and better safety protocols are in place.
Short-term Care Quality
The final category we scored was short-term care. For this category, we gave this facility a B-. Our short-term care ratings are vital for patients seeking rehabilitation. Rehabilitation usually requires higher levels of skilled nursing services. This means a wide range of nursing services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and speech therapists, as well as other variations of therapy. Fortunately, it appear that this facility has registered nurses on staff. Not every nursing home employs these skilled professionals. On the other hand, 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 ultimately were able to return home from this facility. We found that 4.2 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home. This figure was actually quite a bit below the national average.
