Long-term Care Quality
Although we did not have many favorable things to say about this facility's overall score, it did receive a better long-term care rating of B-. This enhanced its profile to a degree. For long-term care residents, the facility's primary goal is to keep patients as healthy and safe as possible. This is different than skilled nursing or short-term care where the goal is to rehabilitate residents. Once we looked at the volume of care provided by nurses and other staff, we then analyzed the nursing home's vaccination statistics. This facility vaccinated 99.7555 percent of its residents for pneumonia, which is more than the average nursing home. This facility keeps its residents out of the hospital. Indeed, it had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

This facility's short-term care rating ended up being one of its higher scores. The facility received a B- in this area. Short-term care grades are commonly used to measure a nursing home's rehabilitation services.

These types of services include registered nurses, physical therapists, respiratory therapists and other highly trained professionals. We found that this facility was below average in the two key staffing areas we focus on. The facility offered fewer registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than most other facilities. It is important to determine whether this also correlates to a lower quality of care.
