Facility Inspections
We want to point out that this facility outperformed its overall grade in the area of inspections. In fact, it received an excellent inspection report this year. As a result, it received one of our best grades in this area with an A. Inspection grades weigh several factors found on a facility's inspection report. One key criteria we rely on is the number and severity of deficiencies. Places with better scores in this category generally have very few of these severe deficiencies. This place was hit with 3 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none of the deficiencies were considered severe. This means that the government inspectors didn't consider any of these deficiencies to create an immediate threat to patient health or safety. We should note that deficiency-free inspection reports are uncommon in this industry.
