You should keep in mind that the severity of the deficiencies is usually more meaningful than the number of deficiencies, as some of these are quite insignificant. While this place had a few minor dings on its government inspection report, it had zero severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are found in categories G, H, I, J, K and L.
