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

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

1. 01

   How do nurses make sure a doctor’s orders are carried out, and how are families told when something is missed?

   Quality of Care: cited in three inspections, most seriously at level E.

2. 02

   Who completes resident assessments, and how are they checked for accuracy?

   Accurate Assessments: cited in two inspections, most seriously at level D.

3. 03

   How is a care plan written and reviewed here, and how do families take part in it?

   Care Plans: cited in two inspections, most seriously at level E.

4. 04

   What changed in fall prevention and supervision after the last citation, and how do you check that it is still working?

   Accident Hazards and Supervision: cited in two inspections, most seriously at level E.

5. 05

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

   No staffing citation appears in this window. Staffing levels are published separately by CMS and are worth asking about directly.

6. 06

   What led to the 2025 fine, and has it been paid?

   A $38,445 civil money penalty was imposed April 8, 2025. CMS publishes the fine, not whether it has been paid.
