While its overall rating was abysmal, this city's nursing home performed favorably in the area of short-term care. In fact, we awarded it a B for that category, which is one of our better scores. In computing our short-term care grades, we assess the nursing home's skilled nursing services, such as those performed by registered nurses, speech therapists, physical therapists and other types of skilled professionals. The purpose is to devise a tool for comparing the rehabilitation services of different nursing homes. This city's second best category was its inspection rating, where we gave it a B-. In the other categories we looked at, Jacksonville earned a grade of C for nursing and a grade of F for long-term care. Even with otherwise respectable category grades, this city's poor long-term care score could be an issue for many people.
