Nursing Homes in Du Bois, Pennsylvania

There are only 2 nursing homes in Du Bois, Pennsylvania, servicing a relatively small population of 19,270 people. The small number of nursing homes here received a city grade of C, which is not a strong grade at the city level. As bad as this grade is, we actually found gave the nearby city of Altoona an even worse grade. With Altoona receiving such an awful grade, we would advise you to tread carefully in either city. In particular, we wanted to make you aware that there is one above average facility in the city. This is most likely where we would begin our search in this city.

It should also be noted that this city's inspection grade was superior to its overall grade. In fact, we awarded Du Bois a B+ for its inspection score, which is one of our better scores. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in computing these inspection scores. One critical factor is deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of these deficiencies is arguably more meaningful than the number of deficiencies, as some are quite insignificant. Du Bois's next best category is long-term care, where it received a B- in this category. In the last two categories, this place received middle of the pack grades in our nursing and short-term care areas.
