Severity levels follow the CMS scope and severity grid. A–C: potential for minimal harm. D–F: no actual harm, potential for more than minimal harm. G–I: actual harm. J–L: immediate jeopardy.

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

1. 1

   Food Quality and Temperature, Cited in Two Inspections

   Inspectors cited F804 in November 2024 and December 2025. This citation covers whether food and drink are palatable, attractive and served at a safe temperature. 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.

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

1. 01

   May we try a meal, and how do you check food temperature by the time it reaches residents?

   Food Quality and Temperature: cited in two inspections, most seriously at level D.

2. 02

   May we see the kitchen, and what do your own sanitation checks look like week to week?

   Kitchen and Food Safety: cited in two inspections, most seriously at level E.

3. 03

   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.

4. 04

   Has the home been fined or had payments denied before this record begins?

   CMS lists no fines or payment denials in this window. The record starts January 11, 2024; anything earlier is not in it.

Inspection results and penalties are published by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services from surveys conducted by the Pennsylvania state survey agency.
