Context
A repeated citation can merit attention, but context and corrective action must be reviewed before drawing a conclusion.
Inspectors cited F812 in April 2022 and May 2026. This citation covers how food is stored, prepared and served. None rose above level F (no actual harm, potential for more). Each citation has a recorded correction, and a repeat after correction is worth a direct question.
F600 was cited in July 2025. This citation covers whether residents are protected from abuse and neglect by anyone. The most serious was level J (immediate jeopardy). The July 2025 citation has no recorded correction date; its status reads “Past Non-Compliance.” The record does not show whether the problem was fixed.
F689 was cited in July 2025. This citation covers whether residents are protected from accident hazards and supervised closely enough to prevent accidents, including falls. The most serious was level J (immediate jeopardy). The July 2025 citation has no recorded correction date; its status reads “Past Non-Compliance.” The record does not show whether the problem was fixed.
For Your Next Visit
Bring these to the tour. Each one comes from something in the record; the reason is under the question.
May we see the kitchen, and what do your own sanitation checks look like week to week?
Kitchen and Food Safety: cited in two inspections, most seriously at level F.
What happened after the abuse or neglect citation, and what changed in training or supervision?
Protection From Abuse and Neglect: cited in one inspections, most seriously at level J. The July 10, 2025 citation has no recorded correction date.
What changed in fall prevention and supervision after the last citation, and how do you check that it is still working?
Accident Hazards and Supervision: cited in one inspections, most seriously at level J. The July 10, 2025 citation has no recorded correction date.
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.
What led to the 2025 fine, and has it been paid?
An $8,492 civil money penalty was imposed July 10, 2025. CMS publishes the fine, not whether it has been paid. The record holds two enforcement actions in the window.
