Despite receiving a somewhat average overall grade, this city performed extremely well in our inspections category. In fact, some of its facilities received virtually flawless inspection reports this year. Consequently, De Soto received one of our highest ratings in that category with an A. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in determining these inspection ratings. One critical factor is deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of these deficiencies is arguably more important than the quantity of deficiencies, as some can be relatively minor. In addition, the city earned a B for the city's long-term care rating. In the last two categories, this place were awarded a C in our nursing category and a grade of D in short-term care. Despite otherwise respectable category grades, this city's poor short-term care rating may be an issue for prospective residents who need rehabilitation services..
