Skilled nursing includes not merely nursing, but also physical and respiratory therapy, as well as other types of therapy. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home has registered nurses on staff. Not every facility employs these types of nurses. However, according to the data they provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. The final datapoint we assessed in this category is the number of residents who were able to leave the nursing home and return home.
