With 5,475 people, Aurora, Nebraska is a relatively small city. There are only 2 nursing homes in the city, which does not offer you too many options. This city's nursing homes received a very good city grade of B+, so what this place lacks in quantity, it makes up for in quality. We also assessed the nursing homes in the nearby city of Grand Island, which has some good nursing homes of its own. However, we found the nursing homes in Aurora to be rated even higher than the ones in Grand Island. This city's report card was also consistent as it did not receive a single poor category grade either. You can read more about these in the next paragraph.
To pair with its great overall grade, we awarded this city an A- for our inspections category. Arguably the most significant factor we look at in calculating our inspection scores is deficiencies. These deficiencies can be found on a facility's inspection reports. Places with higher scores in this area most likely dodged the most severe deficiencies involving health risks or even death. Aurora also performed spectacularly well in our long-term care category, with a grade of A- for that category. Rounding out its excellent report card, Aurora earned grades of A- and B for our nursing and short-term care areas respectively.
