The purpose is to formulate a barometer for comparing the rehabilitation services of different facilities. Fortunately, it appear that this nursing home has registered nurses on staff. Not all nursing homes employs these types of nurses. On the other hand, according to the data they provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. Lastly, we assessed the number of patients who returned home from this facility. We found that 6.8 percent of this facility's residents returned home.

We gave it a grade of B+ for that category, which is among our highest scores. Inspection grades are based on several pieces of information found on the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Facilities that score well in this category typically have very few deficiencies on their reports. Most importantly, these facilities generally do not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with risks to patient safety. This particular nursing home had just a single deficiency on its inspection report and it was not one deemed to pose a threat to patient health or safety. Even some of the best nursing homes receive an occasional ding on their inspection report.

Long-term Care Quality

Grade: C

The final area we scored was long-term care, in which this nursing home was given a grade of C. While this wound up being its least impressive category grade, this is nevertheless nothing to be ashamed of. For residents seeking a permanent residence as opposed to rehabilitation, long-term care is an important category. On top of considering the quantity of care provided by nurses and other staff, we analyzed the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. We found that this nursing home vaccinated only 48.60558 percent of its residents, which is several points lower than we expected. Nevertheless, this nursing home was able to keep its patients out of the hospital. Indeed, it had only 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.
