Position within DE
No citations on file — none of the 44 certified nursing homes in DE has fewer. Compared within DE 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 May 2027 — about 6 months from now. This facility’s last Life Safety survey was May 2026. Facilities in DE are typically surveyed 12–13 months after the last one (median 13), measured over 64 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 about three years in Virginia. How the window is measured
A clean record — put the badge on your website
3 Life Safety surveys in CMS's current file, no citations. The badge below is drawn from the CMS file each month and links to this page, so it stays true on its own: it says what the public record says, nothing more. It is offered only while the record has no citations, at least two surveys, and a survey in the last 24 months.

Physical environment (health survey)
8 physical-environment citations on the health survey — nothing on the Life Safety survey itself. Cited by the health surveyors under Appendix PP, not the Life Safety Code surveyor: equipment in safe operating condition, the call system, bed rails, pest control, hazards, the environment. Counted separately from the 0 Life Safety citations above. The Physical Environment Index
How that compares
Compared with the median facility in DE, and nationally. Surveyors differ markedly between states, so the DE figure is the meaningful one.
