An A+ in this category is one of the highest complements we can pay to a nursing home. Inspection ratings weigh several factors included in a nursing home's inspection reports. One key criteria we rely on is the quantity and severity of deficiencies. Nursing homes with better grades in this area usually have few of these severe deficiencies. While this place had some deficiencies on its report, none were severe based on CMS' scale.

Short-term care grades are commonly used to grade a nursing home's performance with rehabilitation. To provide good rehabilitation services, facilities generally must offer higher levels of highly skilled nursing. These types of services include registered nurses, physical therapists, occupational therapists and other licensed professionals. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home has registered nurses on staff. Not every facility employs these skilled professionals. However, according to the data this nursing home provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists.
