Position within MI
10 citations — more than 32% of the 422 certified nursing homes in MI. Compared within MI 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 2 citations; the earlier surveys in the window averaged 4. With 3 surveys on file this is a direction of travel, not a conclusion.
When is the next survey likely?
The window opens January 2027 — about 3 months from now. This facility’s last Life Safety survey was January 2026. Facilities in MI are typically surveyed 12–14 months after the last one (median 13), measured over 723 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

Emergency preparedness
3 of the 10 citations on file are Emergency Preparedness E-tags. E-tags are cited under 42 CFR §483.73 and concern the emergency plan, training, drills, communications and supplies. Nationally about half of certified facilities have at least one. The Emergency Preparedness Index
Physical environment (health survey)
6 physical-environment citations on the health survey. 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 10 Life Safety citations above. The Physical Environment Index
How that compares
Compared with the median facility in MI, and nationally. Surveyors differ markedly between states, so the MI figure is the meaningful one.
