Kennett, Missouri offers only two nursing homes to choose from, so you don't have too many options to choose from. This city's nursing homes received a phenomenal city grade of A-, so what this city lacks in quantity, it makes up for by having high quality nursing homes. By way of comparison, we awarded the facilities in the local city of Jonesboro a city grade of C, which is much lower grade. Naturally, we found the facilities in Kennett to be rated much higher than the ones in Jonesboro. This place's impressive profile was highlighted by its nursing homes' inspection ratings, which you can find in the next paragraph.
In addition to performing well in its overall grade, many of the nursing homes in Kennett performed especially well in the area of inspections. In fact, some of its facilities received almost perfect inspection reports this year. Consequently, the city received one of our best ratings in that category with an A+. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in calculating our inspection scores. One critical factor is deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of these deficiencies is usually more important than the number of deficiencies, as some are relatively minor. In addition, the city also performed extremely well in our long-term care category, where we gave it an A- for that area. Finally, this place received a B+ in our short-term care category and a B- in nursing.
