There are just 2 nursing homes located in Streator, Illinois, providing for a relatively small population of 20,133 people. We awarded the nursing homes in this city city grade of C, which isn't quite as strong of a score as we had hoped for. By way of comparison, we awarded the facilities in the local city of Pekin a city grade of D, which is a very poor score. Although neither city received a glowing review, we found the facilities in Streator to be a better option. The best part of this city's profile is is its inspection score. Inspection reports are discussed in the next paragraph.
It should also be noted that this city's inspection rating was superior to its overall grade. In fact, we awarded Streator a B for its inspection score, which is one of our better scores. Our inspection ratings weigh a host of factors found on a nursing home's inspection report. One key criteria we weigh heavily is the number and severity of deficiencies. Facilities with higher scores in this area typically have few of these severe deficiencies. Streator's second best category was short-term care, where it earned a grade of B- in this category. In the last two categories, this place earned grades of C and D for our nursing and long-term care categories respectively. In spite of otherwise respectable category grades, this place's weak long-term care rating may be a concern for many prospective residents.
