Among the reasons we rated this nursing home so well is that it received a strong long-term care grade. Indeed, long-term care is its second best category score. In that category, we gave this facility a score of A. When facilities receive this type of score in this category it is a good sign for resident care and suggests that the facility is well-staffed with nurses aids. In addition to considering the volume of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we also looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. This nursing home administered the vaccine to 100 percent of its patients. Vaccines are vital to keeping patients out of the hospital. Finally, this facility was able to limit hospitalizations.

The final area we looked at is short-term care. This nursing home was given a favorable short-term care score in our assessment, with a grade of C. While this wasn't as good as many of its other grades, this remains a respectable grade for that area. In calculating our short-term care ratings, we quantify the facility's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses, occupational therapists, physical therapists and other types of skilled professionals. The objective is to formulate a scale for sizing up the rehabilitation services of different facilities. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home has registered nurses on staff. Not every facility employs these types of nurses. However, according to the information this nursing home provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. The last item we looked at in this area is the number of patients who were able to return home from the nursing home. We found that just 3.1 percent of this facility's residents returned home. Unfortunately, this was below average.
