While its overall score was not elite, this city's nursing homes performed extremely well in our inspection category. In fact, we awarded Newburgh an A- for that category, which is one of our best scores. Inspection grades weigh several factors found on a nursing home's inspection reports. One key criteria we rely on is the quantity and severity of deficiencies. Places with better scores in this category generally have few severe deficiencies. Newburgh's next highest grade came in our nursing category, where Newburgh received a B-. In our final two categories, we awarded the city grades of C and D for our short-term care and long-term care areas respectively. Despite an otherwise respectable profile, a long-term care rating in this range may be a problem for some people.
