In addition to performing well in its overall grade, this city's sole nursing home performed spectacularly well in the area of inspections. In fact, it received a nearly perfect inspection report this year. As a result, we awarded it one of our highest scores in that category with a grade of A. Our inspection grades account for several factors included in a facility's inspection reports. One of the most important criteria we rely on is the quantity and severity of deficiencies. Places with better grades in this category usually have very few severe deficiencies. This place also received an elite grade of A in our long-term care category. In the last two categories, this place earned a B- for its short-term care rating and a grade of B- in nursing.
