Due to a strong government inspection report this year, it received a strong score in that area with a grade of B+.

Nursing homes with higher grades in this area most likely avoided the more severe deficiencies involving patient abuse or death. This nursing home was hit with 6 deficiencies on its inspection report, but we were relieved to see that none of the deficiencies were considered to be severe deficiencies. This tells you that the inspectors did not deem any of the deficiencies to be an imminent threat to patient safety or health. The fact that the deficiencies were relatively minor leaves us less concerned with this inspection report.
