Nursing Homes in Homewood, Illinois

With a population of 20,094 people, Homewood, Illinois is a relatively small city. There are only 2 nursing homes there, which doesn't provide you with too many options to choose from. These nursing homes earned on average an overall grade of C. This isn't a bad grade, but it isn't quite as high of a grade as we like to see either. We also looked at the facilities in the nearby city of Cicero, which received a city grade of F. While we gave both cites low grades, we found the nursing homes in Homewood to be a better bet. The best part of this city's profile was its nursing homes' remarkable inspection scores. Inspection grades are discussed in the following paragraph.

While its overall rating was not elite, this city's nursing homes performed spectacularly well in our inspection category. In fact, we awarded the city an A- for that category, which is one of our highest scores. Our inspection ratings are based on datapoints found on the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Places that score well in this area tend to have few deficiencies on their reports. Most importantly, these places should not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with endangerment of patients. This city earned its second best score in the category of short-term care, where we gave it a B-, which also isn't too bad. In our final two categories, we awarded the city grades of C and F for our nursing and long-term care areas respectively. Despite otherwise respectable category grades, this city's poor long-term care rating may be a concern for many people.
