Red flags
6 immediate-jeopardy citations in prior inspection cycles
Serious past findings — check whether the underlying problems were fixed and stayed fixed.
Cited under the freedom-from-abuse rule
Cited 3 times under F600 (freedom from abuse/neglect) below the actual-harm level — worth asking about on a tour.
Medicare/Medicaid payments were denied
CMS refused payment for new admissions for a period — one of its strongest enforcement tools.
RN staffing in the bottom 10% nationally
0.29 registered-nurse hours per resident per day, vs a 0.58 national median and 0.75 benchmark.
66% of nursing staff left within a year
High turnover disrupts continuity of care; the national median is 45%.
