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

1. 01

   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 D.

2. 02

5. 05

   How many nurses and aides are on each shift, including nights and weekends, for the unit we are considering?
