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 May 2023 and January 2025. This citation covers whether residents are protected from abuse and neglect by anyone. The most serious of these was recorded at level G (actual harm). Each citation has a recorded correction, and a repeat after correction is worth a direct question.

   Citation F659, Cited in Two Inspections

   Inspectors cited F659 in January 2025 and October 2025. The agency describes it this way: Provide care by qualified persons according to each resident's written plan of care.
