Short-term Care Quality
To pair with its strong overall score, we gave this facility an impressive grade of A for short-term care. With our short-term care score, we attempt to create a meaningful measure for rehabilitation. In doing so, we analyze a facility's level of skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as occupational therapy. Fortunately, it appear that this facility employs registered nurses. Not all nursing homes employs these types of nurses. However, according to the information they provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. Lastly, we looked at the number of patients who eventually returned home from this nursing home. We found that 6.4 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home.

Nurse Quality
Another one of this facility's impressive category grades came in the area of nursing care. We awarded them one of our better scores in that area, with a grade of B+. The nursing score features numerous factors. The most heavily weighted one is the number of hours nurses spent with residents. This nursing home provides 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also looked at several nursing quality measures and this place 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 state in this category. This is generally a good indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can typically be prevented by providing better nursing care, such as by having a protocol of moving residents even once per day.
Long-term Care Quality
The final area we assessed was long-term care. In this category, we gave this nursing home an acceptable grade of C. This proved to be this facility's worst area. Long-term care grades focus on a nursing home's assistance with daily living rather than the highly skilled nursing and healthcare services that are critical to a rehabilitation facility. One of the factors we considered after nurse's aid hours was vaccines. Thankfully, this facility provided the pneumonia vaccine to 100 percent of its residents. Lastly, this place was also able to limit hospitalizations. It had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.
