Facility Inspections
Finally, turning to our inspection category, we gave this facility a C. Our inspection grade is based on the nursing home's government inspection reports. While this is not a terrible grade, it is this nursing home's weakest link. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in determining these inspection ratings. One of those factors is health deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of deficiencies is arguably more important than the number of deficiencies, as some deficiencies can be relatively minor. This facility had 4 deficiencies on its government inspection report, but none were category G through L deficiencies. This indicates this facility avoided the more ominous classes of deficiencies. We really didn't consider anything on this facility's inspection reports to be overly alarming.
