While we aren't writing glowing reviews about either city, we found the facilities in Anderson to be slightly better. One of the better aspects of this city's report card is its nursing homes' impressive inspection reports, which we will address in the following section.
This city's overall grade was propped up by its health inspections in recent years. We gave them one of our better grades in that category, with a B+. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in determining our inspection scores. One key factor is deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of deficiencies is usually more important than the number of deficiencies, as some end up being relatively insignificant.
