There are two nursing homes in Wellston, Ohio, so at least you have a few options. This city's limited supply of nursing homes were given a quality city grade of B. By way of comparison, we awarded the nursing homes in the local city of Grove City a city grade of C, which is a well below average score. Although the two cities were relatively close, we found the facilities in Wellston to be a slightly better option. The best part of Wellston's impressive report card was its nursing homes' inspection reports. Inspection grades are discussed in the next section
To pair with its strong overall grade, we awarded the nursing homes in Wellston an A+ for our inspections category. Our inspection ratings weigh a host of factors included in a nursing home's inspection report. One of the most important criteria we rely on is the number and severity of deficiencies. Facilities with better scores in this area generally have few severe deficiencies. Wellston earned a grade of B for the city's long-term care rating. In the other categories we looked at, this place were awarded a grade of B- in our nursing category and a grade of D in the area of short-term care. Clearly, short-term care proved to be this city's weakest category, but a single poor category grade shouldn't shape your entire perception of the city.
