There are two facilities in Wellsville, New York, which at least gives you a few options. We gave this small group of nursing homes a city grade of B-, which is a solid grade. This is just about average by national standards, which is perfectly respectable. The best part of this place's profile was its nursing homes' exemplary inspection scores. Inspection grades are discussed in the next paragraph.
Despite receiving a fairly ordinary overall grade, the nursing homes in Wellsville performed spectacularly well in our inspections category. In fact, some of its facilities received nearly flawless inspection reports this year. Consequently, Wellsville received one of our highest scores in that category with an A+. These inspection grades take several factors into consideration, including deficiencies and federal fines. You can find more information about each of these factors by reviewing copies of nursing homes' inspection reports. In addition, the city also excelled in the category of health long-term care with a B+. In our final two categories, Wellsville received grades of C and D for our short-term care and nursing areas respectively. Despite an otherwise decent profile, a nursing score in this range may be an ominous sign for nursing staffing levels.
