Short-term Care Quality
In addition to being a strong facility overall, this nursing home also excelled in our short-term care category, where it received an A+. Few facilities fared better in this category. In forming our short-term care grades, we assess the nursing home's skilled nursing services, including those performed by registered nurses, speech therapists, physical therapists and other types of skilled professionals. Our objective is to create a barometer for sizing up the rehabilitation services of various nursing homes. Fortunately, it looks like this facility employs registered nurses. Not every facility employs these skilled professionals. On the other hand, according to the data they provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. Finally, we looked at the number of patients who returned home from this nursing home. We found that 6.7 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home.

Our nursing grade consists of quite a few subcategories, but the most important one is the level of nurse hours per patient per week. This nursing home provides 0.5 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, our nursing grades also factor in quality-based assessments, such as avoiding major falls. This nursing home performed well in this area. Avoiding major falls is typically a good indicator that a place has reliable quality controls in place. Major falls can generally be prevented if more nurses aids and better safety protocols are in place.

When facilities receive a grade in this range in this category it generally means it has plenty of staff and is an overall good place to reside on a permanent basis. After we finished looking at the amount of nursing care, we then analyzed the facility's vaccination statistics. This facility vaccinated 98.57143 percent of its patients against pneumonia, which is very impressive. Pneumonia is too frequently a life or death ailment for nursing home patients so we like it when a nursing home does not take any chances. Finally, this nursing home was able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had only 0.04 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.
