It should also be noted that this city's nursing grade was superior to its overall grade. In fact, we awarded Dover a B+ in this area, which is one of our higher grades. Cities with these kinds of short-term care grades generally have plenty of nursing homes with physical therapy, occupational therapy and other services related to rehabilitation. The city received good inspection reports this year as well, receiving a B in that category. In the last two categories, the city earned a C for its nursing score and a grade of D for long-term care. Despite an otherwise respectable performance, this city's weak long-term care rating may be concerning for many prospective residents.
