This city's overall grade was propped up by its favorable government inspections in recent years. We awarded the city one of our higher grades in that area, 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 the deficiencies is usually more important than the number of deficiencies, as some deficiencies end up being relatively minor. Jackson earned a B in the area of long-term care. Finally, Jackson were awarded a C for nursing and a C in short-term care.
