Additionally, this nursing home also was given favorable short-term care scores this year. In fact, we gave them one of our better scores in that area, with a score of B+. Our short-term care grades are likely more meaningful for residents needing a nursing home for rehabilitation. Rehabilitation usually utilizes more skilled nursing services. Skilled nursing means not only nursing, but also physical and speech therapy, as well as other variations of therapy. This nursing home provides more services with physical therapists and registered nurses than most nursing homes we looked at. This is usually a favorable sign. Finally, we looked at the number of residents who ultimately were able to return home from this nursing home. We found that 0 percent of this facility's patients were able to return home.

Turning to the next area, this facility also received a score of B+ for its long-term care rating. This is a well above average score in this area. For prospective patients looking for a permanent place to live as opposed to rehabilitation, long-term care grades are an important measure. In addition to considering the amount of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we analyzed the percentage of residents vaccinated against pneumonia. This nursing home provided the vaccine to 92.30769 percent of its residents, which is a bit lower than we were hoping for. Fortunately, this place excelled at keeping its residents out of the hospital. While it had 3.35 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, its risk adjusted statistic was better than most nursing homes due to it having some more complex patients.

Historical

The next area we looked at is nursing, where this nursing home received a B. This actually was this facility's least impressive category. A facility is doing something right when their poorest grade still is superior to most other nursing homes. Our nursing category weighs quite a few components, most of which are associated with nursing hours. This nursing home averages 3.7 hours of nursing care per resident per day. Finally, we also assessed certain nursing quality-based metrics in computing our nursing grades. These include minimizing residents' pressure ulcers and major falls. We look at these metrics as reliable indicators of the caliber of nursing care offered, since better care tends to reduce these problems.
