Hilton Head Island, South Carolina has just four nursing homes to choose from, so you don't have too many options to choose from. The nursing homes here received a superb city grade of A+. Even with just a couple of facilities, this is still quite an achievement. We found this city grade to be considerably better than the city grade of B- received by the nearby city of Savannah. Both cities received decent grades, but Hilton Head Island appears to be in a totally different league. Topping off a great profile, Hilton Head Island is one of the three highest rated cities in all of South Carolina.
In addition to performing well in its overall grade, this city performed especially well in terms of its inspection grade. In fact, some of its facilities received nearly flawless inspection reports this year. Consequently, Hilton Head Island received one of our best scores in that area with an A+. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in computing these inspection grades. One critical factor is deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of these deficiencies is arguably more important than the number of deficiencies, as some deficiencies are quite insignificant. In addition, we also awarded this city an A for our nursing rating. Wrapping up its straight A report card, this place received a grade of A for its short-term care score and a grade of A in long-term care.
