Nursing Homes in Shenandoah, Pennsylvania

Unfortunately, these nursing homes didn't excel from a quality standpoint. Its nursing homes were given a city grade of D, which is one of our worst grade at the city level. For comparison's sake, we also looked at the nursing homes in the nearby city of Hazleton, which received a terrible city grade of F. While neither city comes highly recommended, Shenandoah surprisingly looks like a slightly better option. Despite all of its shortcomings, one of the few highlights of this place's profile is its strong inspection score. You can scroll down to learn more about inspections and other category scores

This city's nursing homes received an awful overall grade, but we really wanted to emphasize that some of its facilities almost perfect health inspections the past few years. We awarded them an elite grade of A- in this category. Our inspection grades account for a host of factors included in a nursing home's inspection report. One key criteria we consider is the number and severity of deficiencies. You should avoid nursing homes with a bunch of severe deficiencies flagged. Surprisingly, this city also performed respectably in the area of long-term care, where we gave it a grade of B- in this category. In our final two categories, Shenandoah received rock bottom grades for our nursing and short-term care categories respectively.
