This city's nursing homes received a somewhat average overall grade, however, we really wanted to emphasize that some of its facilities virtually flawless health inspections in recent years. We awarded them an impressive grade of A+ in this area. Our inspection grades weigh a host of factors included in a nursing home's inspection report. One key criteria we consider is the number and severity of deficiencies. Nursing homes with better scores in this category usually have few of these severe deficiencies. Monroe also really excelled in the area of long-term care, where it received an A-. In our final two categories, this place earned grades of C and D for our nursing and short-term care categories respectively. In spite of otherwise strong category grades, this city's weak short-term care grade could be a problem for people who need rehabilitation.
