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

1. 1

   Medication Error Rate, Cited in Two Inspections

   Inspectors cited F759 in June 2023 and January 2026. This citation covers whether medication errors stayed under 5 percent when inspectors watched medications being given. 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.
