Short-term Care Quality
We also gave this nursing home a middle of the road score in the area of short-term care, where we awarded it a grade of B-. Our short-term care ratings are likely more meaningful for residents requiring a nursing home for rehabilitation. Rehabilitation generally mandates higher levels of highly-skilled nursing. Skilled nursing includes not just nursing services, but also physical and occupational therapy, as well as other forms of therapy. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home has registered nurses on staff. Not every facility employs these types of nurses. However, based on the data they provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. The final statistic we considered in this area is the percentage of residents who were able to leave the nursing home and return to the community. We discovered that just 4.6 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home, which is actually below average.
Long-term Care Quality
The next category we looked at was long-term care. We gave this nursing home a grade of D in the area of long-term care, leaving this as its worst category grade. Nursing homes that receive this type of grade in long-term care may not provide the kind of consistent around the clock care that some other nursing homes offer. In addition to looking at the volume of care provided by nurses and other staff, we also looked at the number of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This nursing home administered the vaccine to a relatively low 85.04672 percent of its residents, which is a bit of a concern. To our surprise, this nursing home was actually able to limit hospitalizations. With just 0.02 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, this facility had fewer hospitalizations than the majority of nursing homes. This is its best feature in this category.
