This facility provided the vaccine to 56.655293 percent of its patients. This is a bit lower than we anticipated. Finally, we looked at the nursing home's number of hospitalizations. Here we found that this facility had 2.87 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days. Although this admittedly wasn't as impressive as some of its other scores in this category, this statistic can be skewed for some nursing homes due to the medical complexity of patients.
