Grade: B-plus

In addition, this facility also was given favorable short-term care scores in our assessment. Indeed, we awarded them one of our higher grades in that area, with a score of B+.

Skilled nursing means a vast scope of nursing services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and occupational therapists, as well as other variations of therapy. Fortunately, it appear that this nursing home has registered nurses on staff. Not all nursing homes employs these types of nurses. On the other hand, according to the information they provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists.

With less than five percent of its residents sustaining pressure ulcers, it performed as well as any nursing home the country in this category. This is generally a good indicator of quality nursing care. Pressure ulcers can many times be prevented by providing better nursing care, such as by having a protocol of moving a patient even once per day.

Grade: B-minus

Moving on to our last category, this facility received a decent long-term care grade of B-. In a long-term care environment, the nursing home's primary goal is to keep patients as healthy and safe as possible.

This facility provided the pneumonia vaccination to 93.87755 percent of its residents. Nevertheless, this nursing home keeps its patients out of the hospital. It had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.
