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

1. 1

   Pressure Injury Care, Cited in Two Inspections

   Inspectors cited F686 in January 2024 and May 2025. This citation covers how the home prevents and treats pressure injuries (bedsores). 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.

2. 2

   Infection Control, Cited in Two Inspections

   Inspectors cited F880 in January 2024 and July 2026. This citation covers hand hygiene, isolation practice and the home’s infection-prevention program. 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.

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

1. 01

   How often are residents checked for pressure injuries and repositioned, and who is responsible for it?

   Pressure Injury Care: cited in two inspections, most seriously at level G.

2. 02

   Who leads infection control here, and how often are hand-hygiene and isolation practices audited?

   Infection Control: cited in two inspections, most seriously at level F.

3. 03

   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.

4. 04

   What led to the 2025 fine, and has it been paid?

   A $33,430 civil money penalty was imposed August 17, 2025. CMS publishes the fine, not whether it has been paid. The record holds four enforcement actions in the window.
