This facility was hit with 5 deficiencies on its inspection report, but fortunately none were considered to be severe deficiencies. This tells you that the government inspectors didn't consider any of the deficiencies an immediate threat to patient health or safety. A couple of minor deficiencies should not lead you to cross a nursing home off your list.
