Facility Inspections
To pair with its relatively modest overall score, we gave this facility an A- for its inspection grade. This grade is far better than the facility's overall grade. Our inspection scores account for a host of factors found on a facility's inspection reports. One key criteria we rely on is the quantity and severity of deficiencies. Places with higher grades in this area generally have very few of these severe deficiencies. This facility was assessed 4 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none were considered to be severe. This indicates that CMS did not deem any of these deficiencies to create an immediate risk to patient health or safety. A couple minor dings aren't necessarily something to panic about.

This facility also was given an impressive short-term care grade. As a matter of fact, we awarded them a B in this category, which happens to be one of our better.

This rating is more often than not a meaningful measure of the facility's rehabilitation services.
