In addition to a favorable overall score, this city's nursing homes also received favorable health inspections in recent years. As a result, we gave it one of our higher grades in that category, with a B+. Arguably the most critical factor we look at in calculating our inspection grades is deficiencies. These deficiencies can be found on a facility's inspection reports. Places with higher scores in this category most likely avoided the most severe deficiencies involving things like patient abuse. Chambersburg also excelled in the category of government nursing with a grade of B+. In our final two categories, the city received slightly below average grades in our long-term care and short-term care areas.
