Deficiencies are found on a nursing home's recent inspection reports. Facilities with better grades in this category typically dodged the more severe deficiencies involving health risks or even death. While this place had some deficiencies on its report, none of them were major deficiencies based on CMS' deficiency scale. Keep in mind that deficiency-free inspections are rare in this industry.
