This nursing home provided more physical therapist and registered nurse hours per resident than most facilities. This is what we like to find when assessing a nursing home in this category. The last item we assessed in this area is the percentage of residents who were able to return home from the facility.

The last category we scored was long-term care, which is this nursing home's weakest area. We gave this facility a grade of D in that area. Of course, this grade hurt the facility's overall grade a bit. For prospective patients looking for a permanent place to live rather than rehabilitation, long-term care is an important category. After assessing the volume of care provided by aids and other staff, we then analyzed the facility's vaccination data. We were pleased to find that this facility vaccinated 95.02487 percent of its residents for pneumonia. Surprisingly, this facility also wasn't as bad as we expected at keeping its residents out of the hospital. Although it had 2.8 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, its risk adjusted score was not bad since it had some more complicated patients.
