Each figure’s source sits beside it, in its section below.
What these words mean6
- Not read
- The file this site reads doesn’t carry what inspectors found, so nothing is counted here. It doesn’t mean the place has a clean record: the state’s own site may have its reports. Source: How this site reads each source.
- Inspection (survey)
- A visit by state inspectors, often unannounced, who check a place against the rules it must meet. For nursing homes and other places Medicare pays, CMS calls these visits surveys: a standard survey of a nursing home comes at least every 15 months, and a complaint survey whenever a complaint calls for one. Source: CMS; 42 CFR 488.308.
- Deficiency, citation, violation
- What inspectors write up when a place didn’t meet a rule: the rule, what they saw, and when. CMS calls it a deficiency; states may say citation or violation. It is the inspectors’ finding, not a court’s, and the place is usually asked for a plan to correct it. Source: CMS, statement of deficiencies (Form CMS-2567); each state’s licensing agency.
- Memory care
- Care for people living with dementia. Some states license a separate dementia or Alzheimer’s unit; others ask a facility to say what dementia care it gives. This record uses the state’s own field. Source: Each state’s list.
- Licence status
- Whether the state’s licence lets the place operate now, in the state’s own words: licensed, on probation (allowed to keep operating on conditions, after problems), provisional, pending or expired. Source: Each state’s licensing agency.
- Capacity
- The most people the licence or certification lets the place care for at once: residents, children, beds or apartments, as the state counts them. It isn’t how many are there now. Source: Each state’s licensing agency.
What did inspectors find?
Alabama’s directory carries no inspection results, so this page can’t say what inspectors found. The Department of Public Health says: “The division conducts surveys of health care facilities. When facilities are found to be noncompliant with federal and state regulations a corrective action plan is required of the facility. Follow-up visits verify that corrective actions have been implemented to rectify cited deficiencies,” and posts deficiency reports in its Health Care Facilities Deficiencies search.
Is it licensed?
