Nursing Homes in Boston, Massachusetts

Boston, Massachusetts offers only three nursing homes to choose from, which is not a ton of options. We awarded the nursing homes in this city a superb city grade of A. Even with a relatively limited selection of nursing homes, this is still quite an accomplishment. In fact, this city's city grade was far better than the city grade of nursing homes in the nearby city of Watertown. While there is nothing wrong with this grade, we found Boston to be in a totally different league. Not surprisingly, this city has 2 nursing homes that were awarded a grade of A- or better. This gives you a couple of first-class nursing homes.

To pair with its strong overall grade, we awarded this city an A for our inspections rating. Our inspection scores are based on many datapoints found on the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Nursing homes that receive favorable grades in this area typically have very few deficiencies on those reports. Most importantly, these facilities generally do not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with endangerment of patients. The city performed especially well in the area of short-term care as well. Consequently, we awarded it a grade of A in that category. Rounding out its quality report card, this place received a B+ for its nursing rating and a B+ in the area of long-term care. This city did not have any weak links as far as we could tell.
