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

1. 1

   Dignity and Resident Rights, Cited in Two Inspections

   Inspectors cited F550 in June 2024 and September 2025. This citation covers residents’ right to dignity, to make their own choices and to communicate. 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.
