There are only 2 nursing homes located in Beeville, Texas, servicing a relatively small population of 27,768 people. We awarded this relatively small group of nursing homes a city grade of B, which is a good rating. By way of comparison, we awarded the nursing homes in the nearby city of Corpus Christi a city grade of B-, which is also a solid score. Looking at them side by side though, we found the facilities in Beeville to be a bit better than those in Corpus Christi. This city's strong report card was highlighted by its nursing homes' inspection scores, which we will address in the next section.
In addition to having quality nursing homes on the whole, this city really excelled in the category of inspections, where it received a grade of A+. Not many cities earned a better grade in this category. Our inspection scores account for several factors included in a nursing home's inspection reports. One of the most important criteria we rely on is the number and severity of deficiencies. Nursing homes with higher grades in this area usually have few severe deficiencies. The city earned a grade of B+ for the city's long-term care rating. In our final two categories, this place received a B- for its short-term care score and a grade of F in nursing. Clearly, nursing proved to be its weakest category, but one poor category grade shouldn't be over emphasized in your assessment.
