Severity levels follow the CMS scope and severity grid. A–C: potential for minimal harm. D–F: no actual harm, potential for more than minimal harm. G–I: actual harm. J–L: immediate jeopardy.

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

1. 1

   Infection Control, Cited in Three Inspections

   Inspectors cited F880 in August 2021, April 2025 and May 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.

2. 2

   Reporting Suspected Abuse, Cited in Two Inspections

   Inspectors cited F609 in August 2021 and May 2026.

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

1. 01

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

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

2. 02

   How are staff trained to report suspected abuse or neglect, and who reports it to the state?

   Reporting Suspected Abuse: cited in two inspections, most seriously at level K.

3. 03

   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.

4. 04

   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.

5. 05

   Has the home been fined or had payments denied before this record begins?

   CMS lists no fines or payment denials in this window. The record starts August 27, 2021; anything earlier is not in it.
