Nursing Homes in Plainview, Texas

With a population of 28,849 people, Plainview, Texas is a relatively small city. There are just 2 nursing homes there, which does not give you too many options to choose from. The small group of nursing homes here received a city grade of C, which is not a strong score at the city level. For comparison's sake, we also assessed the facilities in the nearby city of Lubbock, which received a city grade of D. While neither city comes highly recommended, Plainview looks like the slightly better option. The best part of this city's report card is its nursing homes' stellar inspection scores. Inspection reports are discussed in the next section.

This city received a fairly ordinary overall grade, however, we really want to emphasize that some of the nursing homes in the city nearly perfect health inspections the past few years. We gave them an elite grade of A- in this area. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in determining our inspection ratings. 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 deficiencies can be quite minor. In addition, the city also really excelled in the area of long-term care, where it received a grade of A-. Finally, we gave the city rock bottom grades for our short-term care and nursing areas respectively.
