A note on Alabama’s records
Alabama’s directory numbers its providers afresh as they come and go, so a number can open another provider tomorrow. Each record here is known by its own line in the directory (its name, licensee and city), links Alabama’s directory search rather than a numbered page there, and shows no directory number.
Watch and the shortlist are kept with a free account, on every device. Your watch list. Alabama’s own record is on apps.dhr.alabama.gov.
The short answer
Each figure’s source sits beside it, in its section below.
What these words mean5
- 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.
- Quality rating
- Many states rate child care in a quality rating system that goes past the licensing rules, such as Texas Rising Star or Kentucky All STARS. Taking part is often voluntary, so a program with no rating hasn’t been rated low. Source: Each state’s quality rating system.
- 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 the record doesn’t say
- Alabama publishes what each visit found in its evaluation and deficiency reports, which each visit on this page links; none of what they say is shown or counted here.
- Alabama’s directory gives no county, so providers are placed by city and ZIP code and aren’t compared.
- Alabama’s directory names each provider’s licensee and director; they are people, so they aren’t shown.
- Alabama’s directory carries no subsidy, staffing or ownership information.
- Alabama’s directory gives a provider no lasting number: it numbers its providers by their place in its list, afresh as they come and go, so this page links the directory’s search rather than the provider’s own page there.
