Position within Wisconsin

4 citations — more than 69% of the 1,894 licensed assisted living facilities in Wisconsin. Compared only within Wisconsin: a citation from DQA means what it means in Wisconsin, 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

Fire and building code inspection, severity, the surveyor's narrative, and enforcement. The fire and building code inspection of a Wisconsin facility is the local fire department's and the state building authority's, and is not part of DQA's record; what DQA itself cites about the building — its physical environment, building maintenance, building support systems and fire safety rules — is here. DQA assigns no severity on these statements, and the plan of correction is the facility's own text and is not republished. Forfeitures and orders are issued in separate enforcement letters and are not republished, and an owner that is a sole proprietor is not named. Adult family homes, three or four beds, are also assisted living in Wisconsin and are not included.
