Red Oak, Texas is a relatively small city with 36,041 people. The city has just one nursing home, which is not the selection we were hoping for. Unfortunately, this nursing home didn't fare well in our assessment. We gave it a grade of F, which is a very poor score. Nationally, most nursing homes received a much higher grade than this place. We really don't have many good things to say about this place, but it did receive a surprisingly impressive long-term care rating. You can scroll down to find out about this.
While its overall score was as bad as it gets, we awarded this city's lone nursing home a B for our long-term care rating. This category clearly is not the reason for this nursing home's concerning overall grade. In a long-term care environment, the nursing home's primary goal is to keep patients healthy and safe. This is different than skilled nursing or short-term care where the goal is to rehabilitate patients. This city's nursing grade is its next best attribute. It received a C in that area. Lastly, we gave the city extremely bad scores for our inspections and short-term care categories.
