Position within VT

1 citations — more than 22% of the 33 certified nursing homes in VT. Compared within VT 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 March 2027 — about 5 months from now. This facility’s last Life Safety survey was February 2026. Nursing homes nationally are typically surveyed 12–17 months after the last one (median 14), measured over 19,385 consecutive surveys in the last two years of CMS records. VT has too few recent surveys to measure on its own, so the national interval is used.

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
