We also want to alert you to the fact that this facility was given a top-shelf score of A in our short-term care category. Our short-term care grades are thought to be most critical for patients in need of a nursing home for rehabilitation. Rehabilitation usually utilizes higher levels of skilled nursing. This means not just nursing, but also physical and respiratory therapy, as well as other variations of therapy. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home employs registered nurses. Not all facilities employs these skilled professionals. However, based on the information they provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. The final datapoint we looked at in this area is the number of residents who were able to leave the facility and return home. We found that 6.3 percent of this facility's patients returned home.

In a long-term care environment, the nursing home's primary goal is to keep patients as healthy and safe as possible. This is different than skilled nursing or short-term care where the goal is to rehabilitate patients. Once we assessed the quantity of care provided by nurses, we then analyzed the nursing home's vaccination records. This nursing home vaccinated 74.410774 percent of its patients against pneumonia. While its vaccination rate was a bit lower than we like to see, we were pleased to find facility was able to limit hospitalizations. Indeed, it had only 0.01 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.
