What these words mean3
- Star ratings
- CMS rates some kinds of place from 1 to 5 stars, more stars meaning better on CMS’s own measures for that kind: for a nursing home, its health inspections, staffing and quality measures. A rating is CMS’s summary of those measures; it doesn’t promise good care. Source: CMS, Care Compare and the Five-Star Quality Rating System.
- 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.

Review of the medical record showed no skilled nursing visits between 9/29/25 and 10/14/25. Review of the communication notes showed no notes regarding missed skilled nursing visits between those dates. Interview with the administrator on 5/7/26 at 12:56 PM confirmed no skilled nursing visits occurred between 9/29/25 and 10/14/25 and verified there were no notes regarding why the visits were missed. 6. Review of the facility’s policy “Patient Bill of Rights,” policy 2-002.1, revised July 2025 showed “...F. The organization shall ensure that the patient receives all services outlined in the plan of care.” Review of the plan of care for the certification period 10/27/25 through 4/30/26 showed patient #16 was supposed to receive skilled nursing one time per week. Review of the medical record showed no skilled nursing visits for the weeks of 2/1/26 or 2/8/26. Review of communication notes showed no notes regarding a missed nurse visit for those dates. Interview with the administrator on 5/7/26 at 1:46 PM revealed the calendar showed missed nursing visits for those two weeks, but there was no narrative note to show why the visits were missed. 2. Review of the plan of care for the certification period 10/27/25 through 3/25/26 showed patient #17 was supposed to receive home health aide services five times per week. Review of the medical record showed only four home health aide visits the week of 2/8/26. Review of communication notes showed no notes regarding a missed home health aide visit that week. Interview with the administrator on 5/7/26 at 1:46 PM revealed the calendar showed a missed visit on 2/11/26 but there was no narrative note to show why the visit was missed. 3. Review of the plan of care for the certification period 6/1/25 through 3/31/26 showed patient #20 was supposed to receive home health aide services five times per week. Review of the medical record showed only four home health aide visits the week of 2/15/26. Review of communication notes showed no notes regarding a missed home health aide visit that week. Interview with the administrator on 5/7/26 at 1:46 PM revealed the calendar showed a missed visit for 2/17/26 but there was no narrative note to show why the visit was missed. 4. Review of the plan of care for the certification period 11/1/25 through 8/31/26 showed patient #32 was supposed to receive skilled nursing every two weeks. Review of the medical record showed a skilled nurse visit on 12/4/25, a narrative note dated 12/26/25 which showed the patient did not answer the door, and then a note dated 1/22/26 which showed the patient was requesting discharge. Interview with the administrator on 5/7/26 at 1:46 PM revealed the calendar showed no answer at the door on 12/19/25 and 1/2/26. He stated the 1/15/26 visit was marked as “declined and not reassigned” which meant the staff declined the visit and it was not reassigned to another staff.”

What the record doesn’t say
- CMS doesn’t publish fines or other penalties for home health agencies, so none are shown.
- Only complaints that led to a citation appear; complaints that didn’t aren’t published.
- QCOR says some of its home health reports are accurate or available only through May 19, 2021, because of a systems migration.
- Many home health agencies are inspected by a private accrediting organisation instead of the state, and QCOR’s home health file doesn’t appear to include those inspections: no inspection on record here doesn’t mean none took place.
