Short-term care grades are commonly used to grade a facility's rehabilitation services In order to have highly rated rehabilitation services, facilities generally must offer higher levels of highly skilled nursing services. These types of services include registered nurses, physical therapists, speech therapists and other types of therapists. Fortunately, it appear that this facility employs registered nurses. Not every facility employs these types of nurses. However, based on the information they provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. The final statistic we considered in this area is the number of residents who ultimately returned home from the nursing home. We found that 5.7 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home as opposed to remaining at the nursing home on a permanent basis.

In the category of long-term care, we focus on the quantity of care offered by a nursing home, as opposed to more sophisticated services. After looking at the quantity of care provided by aids and other staff, we then analyzed the facility's vaccination statistics. We were optimistic to find that this facility vaccinated 94.520546 percent of its patients against pneumonia. This nursing home was able to keep its patients out of the hospital. It had only 0.02 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.
