There are 7 nursing homes in Marietta, Georgia, providing for a population of 302,309 people. The nursing homes in this city received a city grade of C, which is not a great grade at the city level. This grade is not necessarily the end of the world, but it is well below average by national standards. One of the better aspects of this place's report card is its nursing homes' strong inspection ratings, which we will address in the next section.
This city's nursing homes' most impressive category grade came in the area of inspections. In this area, we gave the city a B+. Arguably the most important factor we look at in calculating our inspection ratings is deficiencies. Deficiencies are found on a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Facilities with higher grades in this category typically avoided the most severe deficiencies involving things like patient abuse. This city's second best category is short-term care, where we gave it a grade of B- in this area. Lastly, we gave the city a grade of C for its long-term care rating and a C in nursing.
