After we finished looking at the quantity of care provided by nurses, we then looked at the nursing home's vaccination record. This nursing home vaccinated 100 percent of its patients for pneumonia, which is very impressive. Pneumonia is too frequently a deadly health condition for nursing home patients so we strongly prefer when a nursing home does not leave this to chance. Lastly, this facility was able to limit hospitalizations. It had only 0 hospitalizations per one thousand long-term resident days, which is a remarkably low figure.

Rehabilitation typically requires additional skilled nursing services.
