Context

Patterns Worth Examining

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

    Needs and Preferences, Cited in Two Inspections

    Inspectors cited F558 in September 2023 and October 2024. This citation covers whether the home reasonably accommodates each resident’s needs and preferences.

For Your Next Visit

Questions to Ask on Your Visit

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

    Needs and Preferences: 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?

  4. 04

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

  6. 06

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

Coverage

Record windowSeptember 13, 2023 – October 1, 2026

  • CMS publishes about three inspection cycles; inspections before September 2023 are not in this release.
  • CMS refreshes these files monthly, after statements of deficiencies are processed, so an inspection from the last two months may not appear yet.

What This Report Cannot Tell You

Complaints not investigated onsite
Allegations screened out by the state before an onsite visit are not published.
Complaint allegations
CMS publishes the deficiencies a complaint survey cited, not the allegation itself.
Facility-reported incidents
Self-reported incidents appear only if they led to an inspection.
Follow-up visits
CMS's files list standard, complaint and infection control surveys, not revisits; a correction date is the one CMS records.
Fire safety inspections
Published by CMS separately and not included in this record yet.
Staffing levels and ownership history
Published by CMS separately and not included in this record.
Whether fines were paid
CMS publishes the fines imposed, not whether or when they were paid.

Historical coverage varies by agency and location. Missing records do not mean that no complaint or violation occurred.
