Short-term Care Quality
We also want to emphasize the fact that this facility received an impressive grade of A in our short-term care category. In our short-term care score, we seek to create a valuable gauge for rehabilitation services. In this process, we analyze the nursing home's scope of skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as occupational therapy. Fortunately, it looks like this nursing home employs registered nurses. Not every nursing home employs these skilled professionals. However, according to the data they provided, they do not appear to employ physical therapists. The last datapoint we looked at in this area is the percentage of patients who were able to leave the facility and return to the community. We found that 6.3 percent of this facility's patients returned home.

Another quality feature of this nursing home is its inspection grade. In that area, we awarded this facility an A-. Arguably the most significant factor we look at in determining our inspection scores is deficiencies. Deficiencies are found on a facility's inspection reports. Places with better scores in this category most likely avoided the most severe deficiencies involving things like patient abuse. While this facility had a few deficiencies on its report, none of them were severe based on CMS' deficiency scale. The fact that none of the deficiencies were severe made us feel better about this inspection report.
Long-term Care Quality
The final category we scored was this nursing home's weakest area. However, even in its weakest link we still awarded it a decent grade of C for long-term care. For prospective patients in need of a permanent place to live as opposed to rehabilitation, long-term care is a very important category. On top of assessing the volume of care provided by aids and other staff, we also looked at the percentage of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. Thankfully, this facility administered the vaccine to 100 percent of its residents, which is an above average datapoint. Lastly, this place was also able to limit hospitalizations. It had less than one hospitalization per 1,000 long-term resident days, which is an impressively low figure.
