Sadly, these nursing homes did not excel from a quality standpoint. Its nursing homes were awarded a city grade of D, which is an abysmal grade at the city level.

We would advise you to tread carefully in either city. If you aren't deterred by this city's report card, you can continue reading to learn more about its nursing homes' category grades. This city's nursing homes actually fared decently in inspections for example.
Despite receiving a terrible overall grade, this city performed respectably in our inspections category. In fact, it received a relatively impressive inspection report this year. We awarded it a B- in this area. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in calculating these inspection scores. One key factor is deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of the deficiencies is arguably more important than the number of deficiencies, as some of these end up being quite minor. We also wanted to point out that we gave this place a C in the area of long-term care. In the other categories we looked at, the city earned abysmal grades for our nursing and short-term care categories respectively.
