With just two nursing homes in the city, you only have a few options in Cranford, New Jersey. We awarded the nursing homes here city grade of C, which is not quite as high of a grade as we had hoped for. This grade is not necessarily the end of the world, but it is well below average by national standards. Finally, this place's nursing homes were consistent in all four of the major categories we assessed. Additional information about these categories is available in the next section.
It should also be noted that this city's inspection rating outpaced its overall grade. In fact, we gave Cranford a grade of B for its inspection score, which is one of our higher scores. These inspection grades take several factors into consideration, including deficiencies and federal fines. You can learn more about each of these factors by obtaining copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. Cranford received its next highest score in the area of nursing, where we awarded it a B-, which is also a respectable grade. In the last two categories, Cranford earned a B- for its long-term care grade and a C in short-term care.
