Position within TN
11 citations — more than 66% of the 303 certified nursing homes in TN. Compared within TN 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 3.3. With 4 surveys on file this is a direction of travel, not a conclusion.
When is the next survey likely?
The window is open now: July 2026 to December 2028. This facility’s last Life Safety survey was April 2025. Facilities in TN are typically surveyed 15–44 months after the last one (median 33), measured over 279 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
1 of the 11 citations on file is 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)
5 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 11 Life Safety citations above. The Physical Environment Index
- F-0880 Provide and implement an infection prevention and control program.
- F-0584 Honor the resident's right to a safe, clean, comfortable and homelike environment, including but not limited to receiving treatment and supports for daily living safely.
- F-0919 Make sure that a working call system is available in each resident's bathroom and bathing area.
How that compares
Compared with the median facility in TN, and nationally. Surveyors differ markedly between states, so the TN figure is the meaningful one.
