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.
F757 was cited in May 2026. The agency describes it this way: Ensure each resident’s drug regimen must be free from unnecessary drugs. The most serious was level D (no actual harm, potential for more). The May 2026 citation has no recorded correction date; its status reads “Deficient, Provider has no plan of correction.” The record does not show whether the problem was fixed.
For Your Next Visit
Bring these to the tour. Each one comes from something in the record; the reason is under the question.
What changed after F757 was cited, and how do you check it now?
Citation F757: cited in one inspections, most seriously at level D. The May 14, 2026 citation has no recorded correction date.
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 2024 fine, and has it been paid?
A $36,400 civil money penalty was imposed October 16, 2024. CMS publishes the fine, not whether it has been paid. The record holds two enforcement actions in the window.
