This nursing home actually earned a solid inspection report this year as well, with few major dings from the applicable government inspectors. As a result, it received one of our better grades in that category with a B-. We would argue that one of the most critical factors in assessing an inspection report is deficiencies. In this regard, we especially look at the severity of the deficiencies. Unfortunately, this place was assessed a category L deficiency, which is unexpected based on its inspection rating. This is the worst possible category of deficiencies. This category of deficiency means the government inspectors uncovered a widespread deficiency putting patient safety or health in imminent danger. Even a single serious deficiency of this nature should be taken seriously. While other aspects of this nursing home's inspection report were favorable, we have some reservations.
