Nursing Homes in Chesapeake, Virginia

With just four nursing homes in the city, there are only a couple of options to choose from in Chesapeake, Virginia. Unfortunately, the nursing homes here received a city grade of D, which is a very poor score at the city level. In spite of this alarming city grade, Chesapeake still had a couple of facilities that received a grade of C or higher. None of these places were given particularly impressive scores, but they may be worth considering nonetheless. We really don't have too many good things to say about this city's facilities, but their best category was short-term care scores. You can continue reading to find out about this.

While its overall grade was as bad as it gets, we actually gave this city a grade of B- in our short-term care category. Short-term care grades are often employed to judge a nursing home's performance with rehabilitation. In order to have highly scored rehabilitation services, facilities generally need to provide higher levels of skilled nursing. Skilled nursing includes registered nurses, physical therapists, speech therapists and other licensed professionals. Surprisingly, Chesapeake performed decently in our inspection category as well, where it received a grade of B- for that category. Lastly, Chesapeake were awarded a grade of C for its long-term care score and a grade of C in nursing.
