Headlining this place's stellar report card is its inspection reports, which we will address in the next section.

In addition to receiving a strong overall grade, most of the nursing homes in Riverside performed spectacularly well in our inspection category. In fact, we awarded the city an A+ for this category, which is one of our highest scores. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in computing these inspection ratings. One of those factors is deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of the deficiencies is usually more meaningful than the number of deficiencies, as some of these can be quite insignificant. Riverside also really excelled in the area of long-term care, where it received a grade of A. Wrapping up its excellent profile, we gave the city grades of A- and B for our short-term care and nursing categories respectively.
