As mentioned above, this city's nursing homes received a great overall grade, but we especially wanted to emphasize that some of the city's facilities received virtually perfect health inspections the past few years. We awarded Waukon an elite grade of A+ for this area. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in determining these inspection scores. One critical 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 are relatively minor. In addition, we also wanted to emphasize that we awarded Waukon an A for our long-term care rating. Wrapping up its first-rate profile, this place were awarded an A for nursing and a B+ for short-term care.
