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

   Citation F602, Cited in Two Inspections

   Inspectors cited F602 in July 2023 and May 2025. The agency describes it this way: Protect each resident from the wrongful use of the resident's belongings or money.
