Position within CT
5 citations — more than 25% of the 191 certified nursing homes in CT. Compared within CT 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?
The window opens June 2027 — about 9 months from now. This facility’s last Life Safety survey was September 2025. Facilities in CT are typically surveyed 21–28 months after the last one (median 24), measured over 181 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

Physical environment (health survey)
4 physical-environment citations on the health survey.

Counted separately from the 5 Life Safety citations above. The Physical Environment Index
- F-0689 Ensure that a nursing home area is free from accident hazards and provides adequate supervision to prevent accidents.
- F-0880 Provide and implement an infection prevention and control program.
- F-0584 Honor the resident's right to a safe, clean, comfortable and homelike environment, including but not limited to receiving treatment and supports for daily living safely.
How that compares
Compared with the median facility in CT, and nationally. Surveyors differ markedly between states, so the CT figure is the meaningful one.
