There are two facilities in Charleston, Illinois, so at least you have a few options. Sadly, this city received a city grade of D, which reflects the fact that these nursing homes generally did not receive good grades in our assessment. For comparison's sake, we also assessed the nursing homes in the nearby city of Decatur, which received a city grade of F. While we gave both cites weak scores, we found the nursing homes in Charleston to be a better bet. The best thing we can say about this city is that it didn't receive any F's in any of the categories we assessed. Additional information about these categories is available below.
While its overall rating was as bad as it gets, this city's nursing homes performed better in our inspection category. We awarded the city a B- for this category. These inspection grades weigh several factors, including deficiencies and federal fines. You can find more information about each of these issues by reviewing copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. Surprisingly, Charleston performed decently in the area of nursing as well, where it earned a C for that category. Finally, the city received middle of the pack grades for our short-term care and long-term care categories.
