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.
Context
A repeated citation can merit attention, but context and corrective action must be reviewed before drawing a conclusion.
No citation repeats across the 3 inspections in this window, and no finding is waiting on a verified correction. That is what the record shows; it is not a judgment of care. The questions that follow still apply.
For Your Next Visit
Bring these to the tour. Each one comes from something in the record; the reason is under the question.
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.
What led to the 2026 fine, and has it been paid?
An $8,788 civil money penalty was imposed February 7, 2026. CMS publishes the fine, not whether it has been paid. The record holds two enforcement actions in the window.
