Tujunga, California offers only two nursing homes to choose from, so you have relatively limited options. We awarded the nursing homes in this city city grade of C, which isn't quite as strong of a score as we like. We also assessed the nursing homes in the nearby city of Sun Valley. While we aren't raving about either city, we found the facilities in Tujunga to be a bit better. You can continue reading to find more information about how this city's nursing homes were rated in our category grades.
This city's most impressive category grade was in the area of health inspections. In that category, we gave the city a grade of B. Arguably the most important factor we consider in calculating our inspection grades is deficiencies. These deficiencies can be found on a facility's inspection reports. Nursing homes with higher scores in this category typically avoided the more severe deficiencies involving things like patient abuse. In addition, the city received a grade of B in the area of short-term care. Finally, the city earned grades of B- and D for our nursing and long-term care areas respectively. Despite otherwise respectable category grades, this city's weak long-term care score could be concerning for many prospective residents.
