Position within WA
34 citations — more than 57% of the 193 certified nursing homes in WA. Compared within WA 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 9 citations; the earlier surveys in the window averaged 12.5. With 3 surveys on file this is a direction of travel, not a conclusion.
When is the next survey likely?
Well past the typical window (April 2026 to August 2026), and past the point by which nine in ten WA facilities have been surveyed. This facility’s last Life Safety survey was May 2025. Facilities in WA are typically surveyed 12–15 months after the last one (median 13), measured over 320 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

4 inspection-and-testing tags have been cited here at more than one survey. Nationally, that pattern is common: about three quarters of cited facilities have at least one repeated tag, and half of the facilities ever cited for sprinkler inspection and testing are cited for it again. A repeat is usually a recordkeeping gap rather than a new hazard.
Emergency preparedness
8 of the 34 citations on file are 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)
9 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 34 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.
- 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-0880 Provide and implement an infection prevention and control program.
- F-0921 Make sure that the nursing home area is safe, easy to use, clean and comfortable for residents, staff and the public.
- 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 WA, and nationally. Surveyors differ markedly between states, so the WA figure is the meaningful one.
