Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

This is different than skilled nursing or short-term care where the goal is to rehabilitate residents.

This facility administered the vaccine to 84.9345 percent of its residents. This is a bit below what we expected but still a respectable percentage.
