In this process, we assess the facility's levels of highly-skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as occupational therapy.

However, according to the data this nursing home provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists.

In that area, we gave this nursing home an B+. Inspection grades are based on pieces of information located in the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Places that receive favorable grades in this area have very few deficiencies on those reports. Most importantly, these facilities should not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with endangerment of patients. This nursing home was assessed 4 deficiencies on its inspection report, but we were relieved to see that none were considered to be severe deficiencies. This tells you that CMS did not deem any of these deficiencies to be an imminent threat to patient health or safety. Remember that deficiency-free inspections are uncommon in the industry.
