While this isn't nearly as dominant as several of its other scores, this is truly not the end of the world. Short-term care grades are typically employed to score a facility's rehabilitation services. In order to provide good rehabilitation services, facilities generally need to have better levels of highly skilled nursing services. These types of services include registered nurses, physical therapists, respiratory therapists and other highly trained professionals. Fortunately, it looks like this facility employs registered nurses. Not all facilities employs these types of nurses. On the other hand, based on the information they provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists.

At most facilities, closer to half of their patients are able to return home so this figure is below average.
