This nursing home provides 3.8 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also considered some quality-based measures.

Short-term Care Quality

The next category we rated is short-term care. We awarded this nursing home an acceptable grade in this category, with a grade of C. Although this was not as strong as a few of this nursing home's other grades, it is nevertheless not a major area of concern.

We analyze the nursing home's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses and physical, occupational and other therapists. This place is above the national average in terms of its level of both physical therapy and registered nurse hours provided to its residents. The final statistic we considered in this area is the number of patients who were able to leave the facility and return to the community.
