Position within SD
No citations on file — none of the 96 certified nursing homes in SD has fewer. Compared within SD 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?
Well past the typical window (April 2025 to June 2025), and past the point by which nine in ten SD facilities have been surveyed. This facility’s last Life Safety survey was February 2024. Facilities in SD are typically surveyed 15–16 months after the last one (median 16), measured over 136 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)
2 physical-environment citations on the health survey — nothing on the Life Safety survey itself. 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 0 Life Safety citations above. The Physical Environment Index
How that compares
Compared with the median facility in SD, and nationally. Surveyors differ markedly between states, so the SD figure is the meaningful one.
