Position within FL
4 citations — more than 27% of the 694 certified nursing homes in FL. Compared within FL 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
The latest survey found 1 citation; the earlier surveys in the window averaged 1.5. With 3 surveys on file this is a direction of travel, not a conclusion.
When is the next survey likely?
The window is open now: April 2026 to November 2026. This facility’s last Life Safety survey was December 2024. Facilities in FL are typically surveyed 15–23 months after the last one (median 17), measured over 729 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

7 physical-environment citations on the health survey.

How that compares
Compared with the median facility in FL, and nationally. Surveyors differ markedly between states, so the FL figure is the meaningful one.
