Position within NM
10 citations — more than 30% of the 68 certified nursing homes in NM. Compared within NM 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?
Well past the typical window (January 2026 to March 2026), and past the point by which nine in ten NM facilities have been surveyed. This facility’s last Life Safety survey was December 2024. Facilities in NM are typically surveyed 13–15 months after the last one (median 14), measured over 65 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

Physical environment (health survey)
9 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 NM, and nationally. Surveyors differ markedly between states, so the NM figure is the meaningful one.
