Please continue reading to find more information about how this city's nursing homes were rated in our category grades.
While this city's nursing homes received a decent overall grade, its short-term care rating is notably more impressive than its overall grade. We gave Freeport one of our better scores in this category with a B. In forming our short-term care ratings, we look at the facility's skilled nursing services, including those performed by registered nurses, speech therapists, physical therapists and other types of therapists. Our objective is to devise a scale for comparing the rehabilitation services of different facilities. The second highest score we gave this place in any area was its nursing grade, where we awarded it a B-. In the other categories we looked at, Freeport earned grades of C and D for our inspections and long-term care categories respectively. As you can see, this city's long-term care grade really pulled down its overall score.
