Facility Inspections
While this facility's overall score was not a highlight, it actually received a very good score in the category of inspections. We gave it a B for that category, which is one of our better grades. Inspection scores account for several factors included in a facility's inspection reports. One of the most important criteria we rely on is the quantity and severity of deficiencies. You generally want to avoid nursing homes with too many deficiencies flagged. This nursing home was assessed 3 deficiencies on its inspection report, but we were relieved to see that none were considered to be severe. This tells you that the inspectors did not consider any of these deficiencies to pose an immediate threat to patient health or safety. A couple minor deficiencies are not the end of the world.
