Places with higher grades in this area usually have few severe deficiencies. This facility was hit with 3 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none of the deficiencies were considered to be severe deficiencies. This means that the inspectors didn't deem any of the deficiencies to create an immediate threat to patient safety or health. A few minor deficiencies shouldn't stop you from considering a nursing home.
