Marblehead, Massachusetts offers only two nursing homes to choose from, so you don't have too many options to choose from. We awarded the nursing homes in this city a superb city grade of A-. Even with just a few facilities, this is still quite an accomplishment. We also assessed the nursing homes in the nearby city of Boston, which received an impressive city grade in its own right. However, we found the facilities in Marblehead to be even better than the ones in Boston. This city's profile was also consistent as it didn't receive a single weak category grade either. You can read more about these in the next paragraph.
On top of having excellent nursing homes overall, this city really excelled in the area of inspections, where it received an A. Not many cities performed better in this area. Arguably the most significant factor we look at in computing our inspection scores is deficiencies. These deficiencies can be found on a facility's inspection reports. Facilities with higher scores in this area typically avoided the more severe deficiencies involving things like patient abuse. We also awarded this city an A- in our nursing category. Wrapping up its report card, this place earned a B+ in our short-term care category and a grade of B in long-term care. We found Marblehead to be very competent in every category.
