With 107,957 people, Fargo, North Dakota is a moderately populated city. There are 6 nursing homes in the city, which gives you some options. The nursing homes here received a top-notch city grade of A-. We also assessed the nursing homes in the nearby city of Moorhead, which received a city grade of B-. While there is nothing wrong with this grade, we found Fargo to be in a totally different league. This is also one of the ten highest rated cities in the state of North Dakota.
This city received a great overall grade, but we especially wanted to emphasize that some of its facilities received almost perfect health inspections in recent years. We gave Fargo an impressive grade of A for this area. Our inspection grades weigh a host of factors found on a facility's inspection report. One of the most important criteria we consider is the number and severity of deficiencies. Nursing homes with higher scores in this category typically have few of these severe deficiencies. In addition, Fargo also performed extremely well in the area of nursing, where we gave it an A- for this area. Wrapping up its excellent report card, we awarded the city grades of A- and B for our long-term care and short-term care categories respectively.
