Switching gears to our final category, this nursing home was awarded an excellent short-term care score. In fact, we awarded it a grade of A- in this category, resulting in this facility receiving straight A's. Short-term care grades are commonly used to judge a facility's rehabilitation services. To offer highly scored rehabilitation services, nursing homes generally must feature better levels of highly skilled nursing services. Skilled nursing includes registered nurses, physical therapists, speech therapists and other highly skilled individuals. Fortunately, it appear that this facility employs registered nurses. Not every nursing home employs these skilled professionals. However, according to the information they provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists.
