Nursing Homes in Kirksville, Missouri

With 21,532 people, Kirksville, Missouri is a relatively small city. There are only 2 nursing homes there, which doesn't offer you too many options. These nursing homes earned on average an overall grade of C. This isn't a bad grade, but it is not quite as strong of a score as we had hoped for either. This score is below average by national standards. The best part of this place's report card was its nursing homes' remarkable inspection reports. Inspection reports are discussed in the next section.

Despite receiving a fairly ordinary overall grade, the nursing homes in Kirksville performed extremely well in our inspections category. In fact, some of the nursing homes in the city received nearly perfect inspection reports this year. Consequently, we awarded Kirksville one of our highest grades in that category with an A-. Arguably the most critical factor we consider in calculating our inspection ratings is deficiencies. These deficiencies can be found on a nursing home's inspection reports. Facilities with better grades in this category typically avoided the more severe deficiencies involving health risks or even death. In addition, the city also earned one of our better scores in our long-term care category, with a B. In the last two categories, this place received a C for its nursing grade and a C in short-term care.
