Alamo, Texas is a relatively small city with 33,722 people. The city has only one nursing home, which is less than we were hoping for. We awarded the city's only nursing home a grade of B, which is a quality rating. This should provide you with at least one decent option. We also looked at the nursing homes in the nearby city of Brownsville. We found the nursing home in Alamo to be a bit better than most of the nursing homes in Brownsville. This nursing home's impressive report card was highlighted by its inspection rating, which is addressed in the next section.
To pair with its great overall grade, we awarded this city's sole nursing home a grade of A+ for our inspections rating. Inspection scores weigh several factors included in a nursing home's inspection report. One key criteria we consider is the number and severity of deficiencies. Nursing homes with higher scores in this area tend to have very few severe deficiencies. This nursing home also earned one of our better scores in the area of long-term care, where we awarded it a B+ for the category. Finally, the city earned a B- for its short-term care rating and a grade of F in the area of nursing. Clearly, nursing proved to be its weakest category, but a single bad category score shouldn't shape your entire perception of the city.
