Short-term Care Quality
This nursing home's least impressive category is short-term care, which is the final category we assessed. We gave it a lowly F in this category. Despite some favorable grades in other areas, this score is still somewhat of a concern so we would like to to draw your attention to it. In crafting these short-term care scores, we analyze the facility's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses, speech therapists, physical therapists and other types of therapists. Our goal is to formulate a scale for comparing the rehabilitation services of various facilities. Unfortunately, we learned that this facility offers less physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than most other nursing homes. Lastly, we considered the number of patients that ultimately returned home from this facility. This facility didn't fare well here either. In fact, we found that just 4.8 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home.
