Short-term Care Quality
We also wanted to draw your attention to the fact that this nursing home excelled in our short-term care rating. We awarded them an exemplary grade of A+ in this category. Short-term care grades are typically used to gauge a nursing home's performance with rehabilitation. To offer good rehabilitation services, nursing homes generally need to feature better levels of highly skilled nursing. Skilled nursing includes registered nurses, physical therapists, speech therapists and other highly trained professionals. Fortunately, it appear that this nursing home has registered nurses on staff. Not all facilities employs these types of nurses. On the other hand, based on the information they provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. The last metric we looked at in this area is the percentage of patients that ultimately returned home from the nursing home. We found that 6.8 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home as opposed to remaining at the nursing home on a permanent basis.
