There are three facilities in Livingston, New Jersey, so at least you have a few options to choose from. We awarded the nursing homes here a superb city grade of A. Even with just a few nursing homes, this is still quite an accomplishment. By way of comparison, we awarded the nursing homes in the nearby city of Clifton a city grade of B, which is also an impressive grade. However, we found the nursing homes in Livingston to be in a totally different league than the ones in Clifton. On top of this, Livingston is also one of the top 250 cities in the entire nation.
To pair with its great overall grade, we awarded Livingston a grade of A+ for our inspections category. Arguably the most critical factor we consider in calculating our inspection ratings is deficiencies. Deficiencies are found on a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Places with better scores in this area typically avoided the most severe deficiencies involving health risks or even death. Livingston also performed extremely well in the area of short-term care, where we gave it an A for that category. Rounding out its profile, this place received favorable grades for our nursing and long-term care areas as well.
