Context
Patterns Worth Examining
A repeated citation can merit attention, but context and corrective action must be reviewed before drawing a conclusion.
- 1
Post nurse staffing information every day, Cited in Two Inspections
Inspectors cited F732 in September 2022 and August 2024. The agency describes it this way: Post nurse staffing information every day. None rose above level B (potential for minimal harm). Each citation has a recorded correction, and a repeat after correction is worth a direct question.

Citation F867, Cited in Two Inspections
Inspectors cited F867 in September 2022 and November 2023. The agency describes it this way: Set up an ongoing quality assessment and assurance group to review quality deficiencies and develop corrective plans of action. 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.
22232425F867 across all 4 inspections, oldest to newest - 3
Protection From Abuse and Neglect, No Recorded Correction
F600 was cited in September 2025. This citation covers whether residents are protected from abuse and neglect by anyone. The most serious was level D (no actual harm, potential for more). The September 2025 citation has no recorded correction date; its status reads “Past Non-Compliance.” The record does not show whether the problem was fixed.

Coverage
Record windowSeptember 22, 2022 – October 1, 2026
- CMS publishes about three inspection cycles; inspections before September 2022 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.
