Position within New York

15 citations — more than 65% of the 528 licensed assisted living facilities in New York. Compared only within New York: a citation from DOH means what it means in New York, and there is no national assisted living record to compare to. Counted over 4 years, which holds two or three routine inspections. How this is calculated

Not in this record

Fire safety inspection, severity, the regulation text, and enforcement. Fire safety inspections under the state fire code are made by local code enforcement and are not part of DOH's record; what DOH itself cites about the building — its environmental standards and its disaster and emergency planning rules — is here. DOH assigns no severity to a violation and publishes no correction date, only whether the facility's plan of correction was approved, which is not carried here. Violations under dispute through DOH's Inspection Review Process are withheld from its page and so from this one. Civil penalties and other enforcement are published separately and not republished, and an operator that is an individual is not named.

Also on this campus

The same campus holds a Medicare-certified nursing home, with its own federal record on the Life Safety Index: St. John's Health Care Corporation (150 Highland Avenue). Matched by the telephone number the two records share. The records are separate and are never added together.

Building-related citations

The citations about the building itself — physical plant and emergency management. Usually the maintenance side’s to fix.
