Position within KY
2 citations — more than 6% of the 266 certified nursing homes in KY. Compared within KY 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 on file averaged 0.5. With 3 surveys on file this is a direction of travel, not a conclusion.
When is the next survey likely?
The window opens July 2027 — about 8 months from now. This facility’s last Life Safety survey was June 2026. Facilities in KY are typically surveyed 13–49 months after the last one (median 16), measured over 414 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
