After considering the quantity of care provided by aids and other staff, we turned to the facility's vaccination data. This nursing home vaccinated 92.975975 percent of its patients for pneumonia, which is a bit lower than we were hoping for but still a decent figure. Clearly, this nursing home is doing something right in this area as it was able to keep its patients out of the hospital.

Finally, our nursing grades also factor in quality-based assessments, such as avoiding major falls. This facility performed well in this area. Avoiding major falls is typically a good indicator that a facility has reliable quality controls in place. Major falls can many times be prevented if more nurses aids and better safety protocols are in place.

In the last category we analyzed, this nursing home was given a very favorable grade of A- in our short-term care category. With this grade, the nursing home wrapped up a straight A report card.

This score is frequently a reliable measure of a facility's ability to rehabilitate patients. Fortunately, it looks like this facility has registered nurses on staff. Not all facilities employs these types of nurses. On the other hand, according to the data this nursing home provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. The last statistic we considered in this category is the percentage of patients who were able to leave the facility and return to the community.
