Nursing Homes in Horseheads, New York

There are two facilities in Horseheads, New York, so at least you have a few options to choose from. This relatively small group of nursing homes here received a city grade of B-. This is right about the middle of the road by national standards, which is nothing to be ashamed of. One of the best aspects of this place's profile is its stellar inspection rating, which we will address in the next section.

Despite receiving a fairly ordinary overall grade, this city's nursing homes performed especially well in the area of inspections. In fact, some of the nursing homes in the city received virtually perfect inspection reports this year. As a result, Horseheads received one of our highest ratings in that category with a grade of A+. Perhaps the most critical factor we look at in determining our inspection ratings is deficiencies. Deficiencies are found on a nursing home's inspection reports. Facilities with better scores in this area most likely avoided the more severe deficiencies involving health risks or even death. In addition, Horseheads received a B in our long-term care category. In the other categories we looked at, this place were awarded a grade of C for its short-term care grade and a grade of D for nursing. In spite of an otherwise respectable profile, a nursing rating this poor may be an ominous sign for nursing staffing levels.
