As a result, it received one of our highest grades in that category with a score of A. Inspection scores account for a host of factors included in a facility's inspection reports. One key criteria we weigh heavily is the quantity and severity of deficiencies. Facilities with better scores in this category generally have few of these severe deficiencies.
