Perhaps the most important factor we consider in calculating our inspection scores is deficiencies. These deficiencies can be found on a facility's inspection reports. Places with higher scores in this category most likely avoided the most severe deficiencies involving things like patient abuse. Fortunately, although this place had a few minor dings on its inspection report, it had no severe deficiencies. Severe deficiencies are found in categories G through L.

A few relatively minor dings aren't necessarily something to panic about.
