Nursing Homes in Pickerington, Ohio

With just three nursing homes in the city, there are only a couple of options to choose from in Pickerington, Ohio. Unfortunately, the nursing homes here received a city grade of D, which is a very poor score at the city level. We also looked at the facilities in the nearby city of Newark, which received an abysmal city grade of F. While neither city comes highly recommended, Pickerington actually looks like a better choice. We really don't have many good things to say about this place's nursing homes, but they did receive surprisingly strong inspection reports.

Pickerington received a terrible overall grade, but we wanted to acknowledge its nursing homes' relatively impressive government inspections the past few years. We awarded it a B+ in this area. Inspection ratings are tied to many pieces of information found on the a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Deficiencies are a key thing to look for on these inspections. Most importantly, you should avoid facilities with severe deficiencies associated with risks to resident well being. Surprisingly, this city performed respectably in our short-term care category as well, where it earned a C for that category. In the last two categories, the city earned a C for nursing and a grade of F in the area of long-term care. In spite of otherwise respectable category grades, this place's weak long-term care score could be concerning for many prospective residents.
