Position within North Carolina

4 citations — more than 31% of the 568 licensed assisted living facilities in North Carolina. Compared only within North Carolina: a citation from DHSR means what it means in North Carolina, and there is no national assisted living record to compare to. Counted over 3 years, which holds two or three routine inspections. How this is calculated

Not in this record

Severity, the regulation text, the surveyor's narrative, the star rating, and penalties. DHSR assigns no severity on these statements; the plan of correction is the facility's own text and is not republished, and the star rating and the penalties DHSR lists on the same page are not republished. What is here is unusual among states: DHSR's Construction Section inspects the building and its fire safety itself and posts those statements per home, so this record carries a real life safety section. Family care homes, two to six beds, are also licensed by DHSR and are not included.

Also on this campus

The same campus holds a Medicare-certified nursing home, with its own federal record on the Life Safety Index: Compass Healthcare and Rehab Rowan, LLC (1404 S Salisbury Avenue). Matched by the street address the two records share. The records are separate and are never added together.
