Most importantly, these places generally do not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with endangerment of patients.

This grade is frequently a useful measure of a facility's rehabilitation services. Fortunately, it appear that this facility has registered nurses on staff. Not every facility employs these types of nurses. On the other hand, according to the data this nursing home provided, it does not look like the facility employs physical therapists. Finally, we considered the number of residents who were able to return to the community from this facility. We found that 5.4 percent of this nursing home's residents returned home.

In fact, it had less than one hospitalization per one thousand long-term resident days, which is an impressively low number.
