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

1. 1

   Quality of Care, Cited in Two Inspections

   Inspectors cited F684 in December 2023 and January 2026. This citation covers whether residents receive the treatment their orders, preferences and goals call for. 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.

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

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

1. 01

   How do nurses make sure a doctor’s orders are carried out, and how are families told when something is missed?

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

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

   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 December 20, 2023; anything earlier is not in it.

Inspection results and penalties are published by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services from surveys conducted by the Minnesota state survey agency.
