Even with a few decent grades in other areas, this grade is nevertheless alarming so we felt obligated to draw your attention to it. Short-term care ratings are based on a facility's quantity of highly-skilled skilled healthcare professionals. This includes a wide scope of services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and occupational therapists, in addition to other types of therapy. As you might expect, we discovered that this nursing home offers significantly less physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than the typical facility. The last datapoint we considered in this category is the number of residents who were able to leave the facility and return to the community. We discovered that just 4.5 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home, which is well below average. The combination of these poor statistics was damning for this nursing home's short-term care score.
