Position within TN
4 citations — more than 19% 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
When is the next survey likely?
The window opens May 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

Physical environment (health survey)
1 physical-environment citation 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 4 Life Safety citations above. The Physical Environment Index
- F-0689 Ensure that a nursing home area is free from accident hazards and provides adequate supervision to prevent accidents.
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.
