With nine nursing homes to choose from in Canton, Ohio, you should look at multiple options before choosing a facility. We gave this city a city grade of C based on its overall nursing home quality. This is not a strong city score. This city looks to be comparable to the local city of North Royalton, which received a city grade of C. Frankly, neither city received elite marks in our assessment. One of the highlights of this city's profile is its nursing homes' strong inspection grades, which is addressed in the following paragraph.
This city's most impressive category grade was in the area of inspections. In that area, we gave Canton a B+. Our inspection grades weigh a host of factors found on a facility's inspection report. One of the most important criteria we look at is the number and severity of deficiencies. Facilities with better grades in this category usually have very few severe deficiencies. This city earned its second best grade in the category of short-term care, where we awarded it a B-, which also isn't a bad grade. In our final two categories, Canton earned grades of C and D for our nursing and long-term care areas respectively. Even with otherwise respectable category grades, this place's weak long-term care grade may be an issue for many prospective residents.
