Position within AZ

No citations on file — none of the 140 certified nursing homes in AZ has fewer. Compared within AZ rather than nationally because which state a facility is in explains about 30% of the variation in citation counts between facilities, while bed count explains under 1%. State survey agencies differ far more than the buildings do. How this is calculated

When is the next survey likely?

Well past the typical window (October 2025 to June 2026), and past the point by which nine in ten AZ facilities have been surveyed. This facility’s last Life Safety survey was August 2024. Facilities in AZ are typically surveyed 14–22 months after the last one (median 18), measured over 143 consecutive surveys in the last two years of CMS records.

A range the record supports, not a prediction of a date. State agencies vary widely — from about 11 months in Pennsylvania to three years in Maryland. How the window is measured
