Long-term Care Quality
This facility's best category grade came in long-term care. In that category, we gave this nursing home a B+. Nursing homes that do well in this category tend to provide residents with closer supervision and stay on top of routine healthcare services. On top of assessing the quantity of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we also looked at the number of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This nursing home gave the vaccine to 98.50746 percent of its patients, which is very impressive. Pneumonia is too frequently a dangerous ailment for nursing home residents so we prefer when a facility doesn't take any chances. Finally, this nursing home was able to limit hospitalizations. In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.
Short-term Care Quality
Additionally, we also wanted to point out that this nursing home was given positive short-term care marks this year. We awarded them one of our more favorable scores in this category, with a B. This proved to be the nursing home's second best grade. Our short-term care ratings are believed to be most important for folks in need of rehabilitation from their nursing home. Rehabilitation typically requires additional highly-skilled nursing services. Skilled nursing includes not merely nursing services, but also physical and occupational therapy, as well as other variations of therapy. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home employs registered nurses. Not every facility employs these skilled professionals. However, based on the information they provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. Lastly, we considered the number of patients that eventually returned home from this facility. We found that 5.3 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home.
