In addition to being a respectable facility overall, this facility also excelled in the category of inspections, where it earned an A-. Few nursing homes performed better in this area.

Facilities with higher scores in this area typically dodged the more severe deficiencies involving health risks or even death. This place was assessed 2 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none were considered to be severe.

A couple minor deficiencies shouldn't stop you from considering a nursing home.
