This nursing home's second most favorable category is long-term care. We awarded it a grade of B- in this area. This is essentially a slightly below average score in this category. If you are looking for services other than short-term rehabilitation, you should take a close look at long-term care ratings. In addition to assessing the amount of care provided by nurses and other staff, we also looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. Thankfully, this nursing home vaccinated 98.68914 percent of its residents, which is an above average figure. This place also excelled at keeping its residents out of the hospital. It had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low number.

Nurse Quality
The next highest grade we gave this nursing home in any area came in the category of nursing, where we gave it a grade of C. Nursing scores are based largely on quality and quantity of nursing care. This nursing home provides 0.3 hours of nursing care per patient each day. This is a lower figure than we were hoping for. Despite having low quantities of nursing care, this nursing home fared better in some of the quality-based metrics we looked at. In fact, it scored well in terms of avoiding major falls and pressure ulcers.
Short-term Care Quality
Our last area is short-term care, where we gave this nursing home a grade of C in that area. In our short-term care grade, we seek to forge a sound measure for rehabilitation. In doing so, we analyze a facility's scope of highly-skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as respiratory therapy. Unfortunately, we were not able to find information on registered nurse or physical therapy staffing for this nursing home. The last item we looked at in this area is the number of patients that eventually returned home from the nursing home. We found that just 4.3 percent of this facility's residents returned home.
