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

1. 1

   Pressure Injury Care, Cited in Two Inspections

   Inspectors cited F686 in February 2020 and November 2024. This citation covers how the home prevents and treats pressure injuries (bedsores). 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.
