This city received a strong overall grade, but we especially wanted to emphasize that some of its facilities received virtually flawless health inspections in recent years. We gave Port Washington an impressive grade of A+ for this category. Our inspection scores weigh a host of factors found on a nursing home's inspection reports. One key criteria we consider is the number and severity of deficiencies. Nursing homes with better scores in this area generally have very few of these severe deficiencies. Port Washington also performed extremely well in the area of short-term care, where we gave it an A for that area. Rounding out its first-rate report card, the city earned an A- for its long-term care grade and a B+ for nursing.
