Registered Staff Hours
Short-term Care Quality
We also wanted to emphasize the fact that this nursing home received an impressive grade of A in our short-term care category. Our short-term care grades are thought to be most meaningful for those in need of rehabilitation services. Rehabilitation generally utilizes additional highly-skilled nursing. Skilled nursing means not just nursing, but also physical and occupational therapy, as well as other variations of therapy. Fortunately, it appear that this nursing home has registered nurses on staff. Not every facility employs these skilled professionals. However, based on the data this nursing home provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. Lastly, we considered the number of patients who were able to return to the community from this facility. We found that 7 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home.
