Despite receiving a fairly ordinary overall grade, the nursing homes in Shelbyville performed spectacularly well in our inspections category. In fact, some of the nursing homes in the city received virtually flawless inspection reports this year. As a result, Shelbyville received one of our highest scores in that category with an A-. Our inspection grades account for several factors included in a nursing home's inspection report. One of the most important criteria we look at is the number and severity of deficiencies. Places with higher scores in this category tend to have few of these severe deficiencies. Inspections appears to be Shelbyville's next best category. We gave it a grade of B- in this area. Lastly, Shelbyville earned grades of C and F for our nursing and long-term care areas respectively. Even with an otherwise respectable performance, this city's weak long-term care score could be a concern for many prospective residents.
