With a population of 2,459 people, Hurley, Wisconsin is a relatively small city. There are just 2 nursing homes in the city, which does not offer you too many options to choose from. We awarded the nursing homes here a phenomenal city grade of A. Even with only a couple of facilities, this is still quite an accomplishment. We were so impressed with Hurley that we rated it as one of the 250 best cities in the country. This is impressive given that we ranked thousands of cities around the nation. Lastly, this city's category grades were every bit as strong as its city grade. You can read more about these in the next section.
To pair with its strong overall grade, we awarded this city an A+ for our inspections rating. We take several aspects of a facility's inspection report into consideration in calculating these inspection scores. One key factor is deficiencies. You should keep in mind that the severity of the deficiencies is usually more meaningful than the number of deficiencies, as some deficiencies are quite minor. In addition, Hurley also really excelled in the category of long-term care, where it received a grade of A. Wrapping up its first-rate report card, we gave the city grades of A- and B+ for our nursing and short-term care categories respectively.
