Context
A repeated citation can merit attention, but context and corrective action must be reviewed before drawing a conclusion.
Inspectors cited F689 in January 2025, June 2025, December 2025 and March 2026. This citation covers whether residents are protected from accident hazards and supervised closely enough to prevent accidents, including falls.

This citation covers whether suspected abuse, neglect or theft is reported to the authorities on time, with the results of the home’s investigation.

Inspectors cited F600 in October 2023 and August 2024. This citation covers whether residents are protected from abuse and neglect by anyone. The most serious of these was recorded at level H (actual harm). Each citation has a recorded correction, and a repeat after correction is worth a direct question.
Inspectors cited F684 in January 2024 and June 2025. This citation covers whether residents receive the treatment their orders, preferences and goals call for.

Inspectors cited F755 in August 2024 and December 2025. This citation covers pharmacy services and the licensed pharmacist who oversees them. None rose above level E (no actual harm, potential for more). Each citation has a recorded correction, and a repeat after correction is worth a direct question.
