Context

Patterns Worth Examining

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

    Infection Control, Cited in Three Inspections

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.

    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

  3. 03

    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 E.

  4. 04

    When an allegation is made, who investigates it, and how are residents protected in the meantime?

  5. 05

    How often are residents checked for pressure injuries and repositioned, and who is responsible for it?

Coverage

Record windowMay 11, 2022 – October 1, 2026

  • CMS publishes about three inspection cycles; inspections before May 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.
