There are only 3 nursing homes in Lexington, Massachusetts, servicing a population of 31,394 people. The nursing homes here received a strong city grade of B+. Even with only a couple of nursing homes, this is still an impressive city grade. This is a better grade than the average city in the United States. We also want to point out that Lexington has a couple of nursing homes that received a grade of A- or better. These nursing homes would be a good fit for most people.
In addition to receiving a favorable overall grade, this city received strong inspection rating. In fact, we awarded it a B+ in this area. Perhaps the most significant factor we consider in computing our inspection scores is deficiencies. Deficiencies are found on a nursing home's inspection reports. Places with better grades in this category most likely avoided the more severe deficiencies involving things like patient abuse. In addition, Lexington received a B+ in our nursing category. Rounding out its quality report card, we gave Lexington strong grades in our long-term care and short-term care areas as well.
