We assessed the only nursing home in Linden, New Jersey. We gave the city's only nursing home a grade of B-, which is a a solid grade. This is just about average by national standards, which is perfectly respectable. You may be happy with this place. If you're searching for additional options, you're going to have to look in other cities.
This city's only nursing home received a fairly ordinary overall grade, but we really wanted to emphasize its nearly flawless health inspections in recent years. We gave it an elite grade of A in this category. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in calculating our inspection grades. One key factor is deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of deficiencies is arguably more meaningful than the number of deficiencies, as some end up being relatively insignificant. This nursing home also really excelled in the area of long-term care, where we gave it an A-. Finally, Linden were awarded a C for nursing and a grade of D in short-term care. In spite of an otherwise respectable performance, this place's weak short-term care grade may be concerning for people looking for rehabilitation services..
