Kyle, Texas is a small city with 42,954 people. The city has just one nursing home, which is fewer than we were hoping for. This facility earned an overall grade of B, which is a perfectly respectable rating. Kyle turns out to be one of the fifteen highest rated cities in all of Texas. The best part of this facility's strong profile is its inspection reports. We discuss inspections in the next section
This city's only nursing home received a strong overall grade, but we especially wanted to emphasize its nearly perfect health inspections the past few years. We awarded them an impressive grade of A- in this category. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in calculating our inspection scores. One critical factor is deficiencies. It should be noted that the severity of the deficiencies is usually more important than the quantity of deficiencies, as some end up being quite insignificant. This facility also earned a grade of B for our long-term care category. In the other categories we looked at, we gave the city a grade of B for its short-term care rating and a B- in the area of nursing.
