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.

May 20, 2025: complaint inspection1 deficiency
-
The center is required to establish and implement procedures for appropriate supervision of all children in care.
“On 5/14/25, at approximately 11:00am, Staff #1 and Staff #2 transitioned their class outside to the playground where the children played for about 10 minutes. Upon returning to the classroom, the staff members found Child A, five-years-old, in the classroom, and the child stated that they had been left alone. The program’s procedure was to do a headcount prior to leaving the classroom. Staff #1 reported doing a headcount but miscounting due to the children moving around. Staff #2 reported they did not know to do a headcount.”

- 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 says this information may not be accurate, up to date or complete, and shouldn’t be the only source in choosing care.
