With just two nursing homes in the city, you only have a few options in Clermont, Florida. We awarded the nursing homes in this city a superb city grade of A-. Even with only a couple of facilities, this is still a great achievement. For comparison's sake, we also looked at the facilities in the nearby city of Davenport, which received an impressive city grade in its own right. Nevertheless, we found the facilities in Clermont to be rated even higher than the ones in Davenport. Finally, Clermont is also one of the top 500 cities in the entire country.
In addition to performing well in its overall grade, many of the nursing homes in Clermont performed spectacularly well in the area of inspections.

Our inspection grades are based on several datapoints located in the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Nursing homes that score well in this category typically have few deficiencies on those reports. Most importantly, these facilities should not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with risks to patient safety. We also awarded Clermont an A in our short-term care category. Rounding out its profile, the city were awarded an A- in our long-term care category and a C for nursing. Outside of its nursing rating, this place's three other categories were remarkably strong.
