Severity levels follow the CMS scope and severity grid. A–C: potential for minimal harm. D–F: no actual harm, potential for more than minimal harm. G–I: actual harm. J–L: immediate jeopardy.

A repeated citation can merit attention, but context and corrective action must be reviewed before drawing a conclusion.

1. 1

   Protection From Abuse and Neglect, Cited in Two Inspections

   Inspectors cited F600 in September 2023 and August 2025. This citation covers whether residents are protected from abuse and neglect by anyone. None rose above level D (no actual harm, potential for more). Each citation has a recorded correction, and a repeat after correction is worth a direct question.

   19232425F600 across all 4 inspections, oldest to newest

Bring these to the tour. Each one comes from something in the record; the reason is under the question.

1. 01

   What happened after the abuse or neglect citation, and what changed in training or supervision?

   Protection From Abuse and Neglect: cited in two inspections, most seriously at level D.

2. 02

   How many nurses and aides are on each shift, including nights and weekends, for the unit we are considering?

   No staffing citation appears in this window. Staffing levels are published separately by CMS and are worth asking about directly.

3. 03

   Has the home been fined or had payments denied before this record begins?

   CMS lists no fines or payment denials in this window. The record starts September 11, 2019; anything earlier is not in it.

Inspection results and penalties are published by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services from surveys conducted by the Colorado state survey agency.
