Position within NY
7 citations — more than 17% of the 593 certified nursing homes in NY. Compared within NY 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 3. With 3 surveys on file this is a direction of travel, not a conclusion.
When is the next survey likely?
The window opens February 2027 — about 4 months from now. This facility’s last Life Safety survey was August 2025. Facilities in NY are typically surveyed 18–25 months after the last one (median 22), measured over 523 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)
3 physical-environment citations on the health survey.

How that compares
