    Enforcement Action

    Civil money penalty, $8,824 imposed March 5, 2024. CMS publishes the fine, not whether it has been paid. CMS does not tie a penalty to a survey; listed with the standard health inspection of January 4, 2024, the nearest before the penalty date.

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.

Context

Patterns Worth Examining

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

  1. 1

    Medical Records, Cited in Three Inspections

    Inspectors cited F842 in January 2024, January 2025 and January 2026. This citation covers whether resident records are complete, accurate and kept confidential. 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.

    24242526F842 across all 4 inspections, oldest to newest
  2. 2

    Care Plans, Cited in Two Inspections

    Inspectors cited F656 in January 2024 and January 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 D (no actual harm, potential for more). Each citation has a recorded correction, and a repeat after correction is worth a direct question.

    Professional Standards, Cited in Two Inspections

    Inspectors cited F658 in January 2024 and January 2025. This citation covers whether the home’s services meet professional standards of quality.

  4. 4

    Infection Control, Cited in Two Inspections

    Inspectors cited F880 in January 2024 and January 2025. This citation covers hand hygiene, isolation practice and the home’s infection-prevention program.

For Your Next Visit

Questions to Ask on Your Visit

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

  1. 01

    How can a family request a resident’s records, and how are they kept accurate?

    Medical Records: cited in three inspections, most seriously at level E.

  2. 02

    How is a care plan written and reviewed here, and how do families take part in it?

    Care Plans: cited in two inspections, most seriously at level D.

  3. 03

    How do you check that nurses and aides follow professional standards, and what happens when they do not?

    Professional Standards: cited in two inspections, most seriously at level E.

  4. 04

    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 E.

  5. 05

    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.

  6. 06

    What led to the 2024 fine, and has it been paid?

    An $8,824 civil money penalty was imposed March 5, 2024. CMS publishes the fine, not whether it has been paid.

Coverage

Record windowJanuary 4, 2024 – October 1, 2026

  • CMS publishes about three inspection cycles; inspections before January 2024 are not in this release.
  • CMS refreshes these files monthly, after statements of deficiencies are processed, so an inspection from the last two months may not appear yet.

What This Report Cannot Tell You

Complaints not investigated onsite
Allegations screened out by the state before an onsite visit are not published.
Complaint allegations
CMS publishes the deficiencies a complaint survey cited, not the allegation itself.
Facility-reported incidents
Self-reported incidents appear only if they led to an inspection.
Follow-up visits
CMS's files list standard, complaint and infection control surveys, not revisits; a correction date is the one CMS records.
Fire safety inspections
Published by CMS separately and not included in this record yet.
Staffing levels and ownership history
Published by CMS separately and not included in this record.
Whether fines were paid
CMS publishes the fines imposed, not whether or when they were paid.

Historical coverage varies by agency and location. Missing records do not mean that no complaint or violation occurred.
