With a population of 50,944 , Peabody, Massachusetts is a relatively small city. There are 5 nursing homes there, which should give you multiple options to choose from. The nursing homes in this city received a phenomenal city grade of A-. Even with just a couple of facilities, this is still quite an achievement. By way of comparison, we gave the nursing homes in the local city of Andover a city grade of B, which is also a good grade. Nevertheless, we found the facilities in Peabody to be rated slightly higher than the ones in Andover. The best aspect of this city's impressive report card is its nursing homes' short-term care ratings. Short-term care grades are discussed in the next paragraph.
This city received a great overall grade, but we especially wanted to point out that we gave Peabody an impressive grade of A- in short-term care. Cities with these kinds of short-term care grades usually have plenty of facilities offering physical therapy, occupational therapy and other services related to rehabilitation. In addition, we also wanted to point out that some of its nursing homes received virtually perfect health inspections in recent years. For this reason, we gave Peabody a grade of A- for this area. Wrapping up its impressive profile, the city earned a grade of B+ for its nursing rating and a B+ in long-term care. We truly found this place to be very strong in every category.
