Context
A repeated citation can merit attention, but context and corrective action must be reviewed before drawing a conclusion.
Inspectors cited F684 in November 2023, April 2024, June 2024, December 2024, February 2025 and May 2025. This citation covers whether residents receive the treatment their orders, preferences and goals call for. The most serious of these was recorded at level J (immediate jeopardy).

The agency describes it this way: Ensure residents do not lose the ability to perform activities of daily living unless there is a medical reason.

The agency describes it this way: Provide rooms that are at least 80 square feet per resident in multiple rooms and 100 square feet for single resident rooms.
