In determining our short-term care ratings, we analyze the nursing home's skilled nursing services, including those performed by registered nurses, occupational therapists, physical therapists and other types of therapists. Our objective is to create a scale for sizing up the rehabilitation services of different facilities. Fortunately, it looks like this facility employs registered nurses. Not every nursing home employs these skilled professionals. On the other hand, based on the information this nursing home provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. Finally, we assessed the number of patients that ultimately were able to return home from this facility. We found that 6.8 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home.

Finally, our nursing grades also factor in quality-based assessments, such as avoiding major falls. This facility performed well in this area.

For patients seeking a permanent residence rather than rehabilitation, long-term care grades are a key measure. One of the data points we considered after nurse's aid hours is vaccines. Fortunately, this nursing home provided the pneumonia vaccination to 100 percent of its patients. This place also excelled at keeping its patients out of the hospital. It had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.
