There are only 4 nursing homes in Saint Marys, Ohio, servicing a relatively small population of 12,661 people. This place's limited supply of nursing homes were given a good city grade of B. For comparison's sake, we also assessed the facilities in the nearby city of Troy, which received a city grade of D. We found Saint Marys to be a far better option. This city's profile was also very consistent as it did not receive a single poor category grade either. You can find more information about these in the next section.
In addition to performing well in its overall grade, most of the nursing homes in Saint Marys performed extremely well in our inspections category. In fact, some of the nursing homes in the city received virtually perfect inspection reports this year. As a result, we awarded Saint Marys one of our best scores in that area with a grade of A. Arguably the most important factor we look at in calculating our inspection scores is deficiencies. These deficiencies can be found on a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Facilities with better scores in this area most likely avoided the more severe deficiencies involving health risks or even death. The city also fared well in the area of short-term care with a B+. In the other categories we looked at, the city earned middle of the pack grades for our long-term care and nursing areas.
