Context
Patterns Worth Examining
A repeated citation can merit attention, but context and corrective action must be reviewed before drawing a conclusion.
- 1
Accident Hazards and Supervision, Cited in Three Inspections
Inspectors cited F689 in November 2022, September 2024 and March 2026. This citation covers whether residents are protected from accident hazards and supervised closely enough to prevent accidents, including falls. The most serious of these was recorded at level L (immediate jeopardy). Each citation has a recorded correction, and a repeat after correction is worth a direct question.

Reporting Suspected Abuse, Cited in Two Inspections
Inspectors cited F609 in November 2022 and December 2023. This citation covers whether suspected abuse, neglect or theft is reported to the authorities on time, with the results of the home’s investigation. The most serious of these was recorded at level J (immediate jeopardy). Each citation has a recorded correction, and a repeat after correction is worth a direct question.

Investigating Alleged Violations, Cited in Two Inspections
Inspectors cited F610 in November 2022 and December 2023. This citation covers how the home responds to and investigates an allegation of abuse, neglect or mistreatment.

Coverage
Record windowNovember 23, 2022 – October 1, 2026
- CMS publishes about three inspection cycles; inspections before November 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.
