Nursing Homes in La Plata, Maryland

La Plata, Maryland offers only two nursing homes to choose from, which is a limited selection. This place's limited supply of nursing homes were given a strong city grade of B. By way of comparison, we awarded the nursing homes in the nearby city of Fort Washington a city grade of B-, which is also a decent grade. Nevertheless, we found the facilities in La Plata to be rated slightly higher than the ones in Fort Washington. The best aspect of this city's strong profile is its nursing homes' inspection reports. Inspection reports are discussed in the next paragraph

In addition to performing well in its overall grade, this city performed extremely well in terms of its inspection grade. In fact, some of the nursing homes in the city received almost flawless inspection reports this year. As a result, La Plata received one of our best ratings in that category with an A. Our inspection grades account for a host of factors found on a facility's inspection report. One of the most important criteria we consider is the number and severity of deficiencies. Places with higher scores in this category tend to have very few severe deficiencies. In addition, La Plata also fared well in the area of short-term care with a B+. In the other categories we looked at, the city received slightly below average grades in our nursing and long-term care areas.
