Position within TN
No citations on file — none of the 303 certified nursing homes in TN has fewer. 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
When is the next survey likely?
The window opens June 2027 — about 8 months from now. This facility’s last Life Safety survey was March 2026. 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
A clean record — put the badge on your website
3 Life Safety surveys in the CMS window, no citations. The badge below is drawn from the CMS file each month and links to this page, so it stays true on its own: it says what the public record says, nothing more. It is offered only while the record has no citations, at least two surveys, and a survey in the last 24 months.
