Context
A repeated citation can merit attention, but context and corrective action must be reviewed before drawing a conclusion.
F603 was cited in April 2026. The agency describes it this way: Protect each resident from separation (from other residents, his/her room, or confinement to his/her room). The most serious was level G (actual harm). The April 2026 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.
What changed after F603 was cited, and how do you check it now?

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