On the list of its many high-end scores, this facility was awarded a top-shelf long-term care score. In fact, we gave it a score of A in this category. When facilities receive a grade in this range in this category it generally means it has plenty of staff and is a quality place to live on a permanent basis. After assessing the quantity of care provided by nurses and other staff, we then looked at the nursing home's vaccination data. This nursing home vaccinated 99.27007 percent of its patients for pneumonia, which is much higher than the majority of nursing homes. Finally, this nursing home was able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Adding to its profile, this facility also earned a grade of B+ for its nursing rating. This is a well above average score in this category. Our nursing grade is largely tied to the facility's level of nurse staffing. This nursing home provides 0.3 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Lastly, we also assessed some nursing quality measures in determining our nursing grades. This nursing home performed very well in the area of avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers. We consider these areas to be good indicators of the quality of nursing care.

The last area we analyzed is short-term care. This facility received a strong nursing rating this year, with a B. While this is not as elite as some of its other grades, this is still one of our stronger grades for that area. In our short-term care rating, we seek to forge a fair gauge for rehabilitation. In doing so, we assess a nursing home's offerings of highly-skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as speech therapy. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home has registered nurses on staff. Not every facility employs these types of nurses. On the other hand, based on the data they provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. The last metric we looked at in this area is the number of residents who were able to leave the facility and return to the community. We found that 0 percent of this facility's residents were able to return home.
