While its overall rating was somewhat average, this city performed extremely well in our inspection category. In fact, we awarded Chardon an A for that category, which is one of our best scores. Inspection ratings weigh a host of factors found on a nursing home's inspection report. One of the most important criteria we rely on is the number and severity of deficiencies. Places with higher grades in this category tend to have very few of these severe deficiencies. In addition, Chardon earned a B in our short-term care category. In the other categories we looked at, Chardon received grades of C and F for our nursing and long-term care areas respectively. In spite of an otherwise respectable performance, this city's poor long-term care score may be a concern for many prospective residents.
