There are two facilities in California, Missouri, so at least you have a few choices. While it only has a couple of nursing homes, this city received a first-rate city grade of A-. In fact, this is one of the top 500 cities in the country. This is impressive considering we assessed thousands of cities around the nation. The best part of California's strong profile is its nursing homes' inspection ratings. Inspection reports are discussed in the next paragraph
In addition to receiving a strong overall grade, most of the facilities in California performed extremely well in our inspection category. In fact, we awarded the city a grade of A+ for that category, which is one of our highest scores. Perhaps the most critical factor we look at in determining our inspection scores is deficiencies. These deficiencies are found on a nursing home's inspection reports. Facilities with higher scores in this area most likely dodged the more severe deficiencies involving health risks or even death. California also received strong long-term care rating where it received a grade of B+ in this category. Rounding out its profile, California were awarded a B+ in our nursing category and a B+ for short-term care. California really did not have any weak links based on our assessment.
