We looked at the only nursing home in Menlo Park, California. Sadly, this nursing home did not fare well in our assessment. We awarded it a grade of D, which is a very weak score. This score is rock bottom by national standards. We don't have too many good things to say about this place, but it did receive a surprisingly strong long-term care report.

Despite receiving an abysmal overall grade, this city's nursing home performed favorably in the area of long-term care. Indeed, we awarded it one of our higher ratings in that area with a B. For long-term care residents, the nursing home's primary goal is to keep patients as healthy and safe as possible. This is different than skilled nursing or short-term care where the goal is to rehabilitate patients. This city's second best category was its nursing rating, where we gave it a C. Lastly, we gave Menlo Park grades of C and F for our short-term care and inspections categories respectively. Even with an otherwise respectable profile, we find an inspections grade this low to be concerning.
