While this city's nursing homes received a middle of the road overall grade, its inspection grade is more impressive than its overall score. Due to some of its nursing homes receiving favorable inspection reports this year, Kokomo received one of our higher scores in this area with a B+. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in determining these inspection scores. One key factor is deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of these deficiencies is usually more meaningful than the number of deficiencies, as some deficiencies can be relatively minor. Inspections is Kokomo's next best feature. We awarded it a grade of B- in this category. Finally, Kokomo received slightly below average grades for our nursing and long-term care categories.
