In addition to having quality nursing homes on the whole, this city really excelled in the area of inspections, where we gave it an A. Very few cities performed better in this category. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in computing these inspection ratings. One key factor is deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of deficiencies is usually more meaningful than the quantity of deficiencies, as some deficiencies end up being quite insignificant. The city earned a B+ for our long-term care category. Finally, this place received a B for its nursing score and a B- in short-term care.
