Nursing Homes in Bremerton, Washington

With a population of 84,812 people, Bremerton, Washington is an average size city. Surprisingly, there are only 3 nursing homes there, which is not quite as many as we expected in a city of this size. These nursing homes were awarded on average an overall grade of C. This isn't a bad grade, but it is not quite as strong of a grade as we like to see either. For comparison's sake, we also looked at the facilities in the nearby city of Lakewood, which received a city grade of F. While we gave both cites low scores, we found the nursing homes in Bremerton to be slightly better. The best part of this city's profile is is its short-term care score. We discuss short-term care in the following paragraph.

It should also be noted that this city's nursing score was superior to its overall grade. In fact, we gave Bremerton a B in this category, which is one of our better grades. Our short-term care grades are thought to be most meaningful for patients requiring a nursing home for rehabilitation. Rehabilitation typically utilizes higher levels of highly-skilled nursing services. This includes not just nursing services, but also physical and respiratory therapy, as well as other forms of therapy. Bremerton received its next highest score in the area of inspections, where we gave it a B-, which also isn't too bad. Finally, Bremerton received a grade of B- for its nursing grade and a grade of D for long-term care. In spite of an otherwise respectable performance, this place's poor long-term care score may be a concern for many people.
