There are six nursing homes in Salem, Oregon, which provides you with a decent number of options to choose from. These facilities received on average an overall grade of C. This isn't a terrible grade, but it is not quite as high of a grade as we had hoped for either. This score unfortunately ended up on the wrong side of the national average. One of the better aspects of this city's profile is its nursing homes' impressive short-term care grades, which you can find in the next paragraph.
This city's nursing homes' best category grade was in short-term care. In that category, we gave Salem a B. In our short-term care score, we attempt to create a valuable measure for rehabilitation services. In this process, we look at a facility's level of skilled nursing services, including both registered nurses and physical therapy, as well as occupational therapy. The city also excelled in the area of government inspections with a grade of B. Finally, this place received a B- in our nursing category and a grade of D for long-term care. Despite otherwise respectable category grades, this city's weak long-term care rating may be an issue for many people.
