With a population of 37,999 , Southampton, Pennsylvania is a relatively small city. There are only 2 nursing homes there, which doesn't provide you with too many options. The nursing homes here received a top-notch city grade of A-. Even with just a few facilities, this is still quite an accomplishment. We were impressed enough with this city to rank it as one of the top twenty five rated cities in the state of Pennsylvania. This is also a reminder that this state has plenty of cities with great nursing homes. The best part of this city's strong profile was its nursing homes' short-term care scores. Short-term care grades are discussed in the next section.
As mentioned above, this city received a great overall grade, but we also wanted to emphasize that we awarded Southampton an elite grade of A in the category of short-term care. High end grades in this category typically mean a city's nursing homes have favorable levels of physical therapy staffing. We also awarded this city an A in our inspections category. Rounding out its quality report card, we awarded the city favorable grades for our nursing and long-term care categories as well.
