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

1. 1

   Care Plans, Cited in Three Inspections

   Inspectors cited F656 in August 2021, February 2023 and June 2025. This citation covers whether each resident has a written care plan that meets their needs, with goals that can be measured. None rose above level E (no actual harm, potential for more). Each citation has a recorded correction, and a repeat after correction is worth a direct question.

2. 2

   Accident Hazards and Supervision, Cited in Two Inspections

   Inspectors cited F689 in August 2021 and June 2025. This citation covers whether residents are protected from accident hazards and supervised closely enough to prevent accidents, including falls. 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.
