In that category, we gave this nursing home an A. Short-term care grades are crucial for patients needing rehabilitation. Rehabilitation generally utilizes higher levels of skilled nursing services. Skilled nursing includes a wide spectrum of services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and occupational therapists, as well as other variations of therapy. Fortunately, it looks like this facility employs registered nurses. Not all nursing homes employs these skilled professionals. On the other hand, according to the data they provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. Lastly, we assessed the percentage of residents who were able to return to the community from this facility. We found that 7.1 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home.

This wasn't quite as good as some of its other scores, but a grade in this range is not the end of the world. Our nursing rating consists of many datapoints, however, the paramount consideration is the level of nurse hours per patient per week. This nursing home provides 0.4 hours of nursing care per resident per day. This is a much lower figure than we are used to seeing. Lastly, despite not having the highest total nursing hours, this place performed admirably in the area of preventing major falls. This is often an indicator that a place has sufficient quality controls in place.
Long-term Care Quality
Switching gears to our fourth category, we gave this facility a D in the area of long-term care. This was the facility's worst category score. Naturally, this score pulled down the nursing home's overall grade a bit. Long-term care scores in this range generally are a bad sign for the quantity and quality of care provided by nurses and aids. One of the data points we considered after nursing hours is vaccinations. We were a bit concerned this facility provided the pneumonia vaccine to only 72.58883 percent of its patients. Surprisingly, this facility was actually able to limit hospitalizations. With just 0.02 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, this nursing home had less hospitalizations than the majority of nursing homes. This was its best feature in this category.
