Nursing Homes in Rockaway Park, New York

With a population of 20,408 people, Rockaway Park, New York is a relatively small city. There are only 3 nursing homes in the city, which doesn't give you too many options to choose from. This relatively small group of nursing homes were awarded on average an overall grade of B-, which a decent grade for the city. For comparison's sake, we also assessed the facilities in the nearby city of Fresh Meadows. While we aren't writing glowing reviews about either city, we found the facilities in Rockaway Park to be a better bet. Looking at the individual nursing homes in the city, none of them really stood out. Nevertheless, we were still able to find a couple of decent nursing homes here.

Despite receiving a fairly ordinary overall grade, this city performed extremely well in our inspections category. In fact, some of its facilities received virtually perfect inspection reports this year. Consequently, Rockaway Park received one of our best scores in that category with an A+. These inspection grades take several factors into consideration, including deficiencies and federal fines. You can learn more about each of these factors by reviewing copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. We also awarded Rockaway Park a grade of A- in our long-term care rating. In the other categories we looked at, we gave Rockaway Park alarmingly low grades for our nursing and short-term care areas respectively.
