Turning to another strength for this facility, we awarded them one of our higher scores in our short-term care category as well, with a B. In our short-term care score, we seek to forge a sound measure for rehabilitation. In doing so, we look at a facility's levels of skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as speech therapy. Unfortunately, it does not look like this nursing home provided registered nurse or physical therapist staffing data. The last measure we considered in this area is the percentage of patients who were able to leave the facility and return home. We found that 0 percent of this facility's patients returned home.
Long-term Care Quality
The next category we analyzed was long-term care, in which this facility was awarded a grade of B-. Although this turned out to be its weakest category grade, this is nevertheless not a bad grade. Our long-term care ratings are vital for prospective residents requiring non-healthcare services such as personal care. After looking at the quantity of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we turned to the nursing home's vaccination record. We were disappointed to learn that this nursing home vaccinated a relatively low 86.995514 percent of its residents against pneumonia. On a more positive note, this place was able to limit hospitalizations. It had only 0 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.
