In addition to receiving a strong overall grade, most of the nursing homes in Brighton performed spectacularly well in our inspection category. In fact, we awarded it an A- for that category, which is one of our best scores. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in determining these inspection grades. One key factor is deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of deficiencies is arguably more meaningful than the number of deficiencies, as some deficiencies end up being quite minor. The city earned a grade of B for our short-term care category. Lastly, we gave Brighton slightly below average grades for our nursing and long-term care areas.
