Red flags
1 immediate-jeopardy citation in the most recent inspection cycle
Immediate jeopardy is the most serious finding an inspector can make: a situation likely to cause serious injury, harm, or death.
Cited under the freedom-from-abuse rule
Cited 1 time under F600 (freedom from abuse/neglect) below the actual-harm level — worth asking about on a tour.
$212,476 in federal fines in the last 24 months
3 fines — CMS fines are reserved for verified, serious non-compliance.
Total nurse staffing below 3.0 hours per resident-day
2.38 reported hours vs the 3.48 minimum CMS's own staffing study recommends.
60% of nursing staff left within a year
High turnover disrupts continuity of care; the national median is 45%.
