This means a broad spectrum of services, spanning from registered nurses to physical and occupational therapists, as well as other types of therapy. Fortunately, it appear that this nursing home has registered nurses on staff. Not all facilities employs these types of nurses.

This facility gave the vaccine to 100 percent of its patients. Surprisingly, this place was able to limit hospitalizations.
