As mentioned above, this city received a great overall grade, but we especially wanted to emphasize that some of its nursing homes received nearly perfect health inspections in recent years. We awarded Morristown an impressive grade of A+ in this category. We weigh several aspects of a nursing home's inspection report in determining these inspection scores. One of those factors is deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of the deficiencies is arguably more meaningful than the quantity of deficiencies, as some of these end up being relatively minor. In addition, the city earned a B+ for our long-term care category. Wrapping up its impressive profile, we gave Morristown a B for short-term care and a B in the area of nursing. We truly found Morristown to be strong in each category we assessed.
