Adding to its impressive resume, this nursing home also excelled in our nursing category. In fact, we awarded it a grade of A for that category. Nursing ratings are based largely on levels of nurse staffing. This nursing home averages 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also assessed several nursing quality measures and this nursing home excelled in some of these areas. With less than five percent of its residents sustaining pressure ulcers, it performed as well as any nursing home the country in this category. This is generally a good indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can generally be prevented by offering better nursing care, such as by employing a protocol of moving a patient more often.

Short-term Care Quality

The last category we assessed is short-term care. This facility received a favorable nursing rating in our assessment, with a grade of B. Even though this wasn't nearly as dominant as several of its other category grades, this is still one of the more impressive grades for this area. With our short-term care grade, we try to craft a sound measure for rehabilitation services. In this process, we analyze the nursing home's offerings of highly-skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as occupational therapy. Fortunately, it appear that this facility has registered nurses on staff. Not every nursing home employs these skilled professionals. On the other hand, based on the information they provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. The final item we looked at in this area is the percentage of patients who were able to leave the nursing home and return home. We discovered that 5.1 percent of this facility's residents returned home.
