What these words mean4
- 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.
- 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.

The inspectors’ words, 188 words
“When staff are supervising children, they shall always ensure their care, protection, and guidance. The center did not provide care and protection for seven preschool age children (ages 3 years-4 years) while being transported on 8/14/2026. Staff 1 transported the seven preschool children approximately 10 miles in Vehicle 1 (a small SUV). The Code of Virginia requires that any child, up to age eight, shall be properly secured in a child restraint device which meets the standards adopted by the United States Department of Transportation. All seven children would have required a child safety restraint; none of the children were placed in a child safety restraint during transportation. There were not enough seatbelts in Vehicle 1 to accommodate all seven of the children. Four of the seven children rode in the second row of the vehicle, and the other three children rode in the third row; Child 3 and Child 5 were strapped into the same seatbelt on the second row, and Child 2 and Child 4 were strapped into the same seatbelt on the third row. The route has a potential maximum speed limit of 40 MPH.”

What the record doesn’t say
- Virginia doesn’t grade how serious a violation is, so no severity is shown.
- Virginia publishes a complaint’s allegations and findings only when its inspection found a violation and the records are linked.
- Virginia doesn’t publish staffing levels or owners for individual providers.
- A plan of correction sent late, or not at all, isn’t online: Virginia says to ask the inspector.
- Virginia’s pages show about the last five years of inspections; for older ones, Virginia says to contact the licensing inspector.
- Virginia says this information may not be accurate, up to date or complete, and shouldn’t be the only source in choosing care.
