Position within ME

5 citations — more than 5% of the 78 certified nursing homes in ME. Compared within ME 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 July 2027 — about 8 months from now. This facility’s last Life Safety survey was July 2026. Facilities in ME are typically surveyed 13–15 months after the last one (median 14), measured over 113 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
