What these words mean2
- 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.

This included identifying risks associated with home oxygen therapy and performing/documenting assessment of the patient’s and/or caregiver’s comprehension of risks and compliance with education, training, and recommended interventions during home visits. In RRHV#3, when asked by the surveyor, the hospice RN indicated the oxygen E-tank was being stored in a small closed closet in the patient’s room at the Assisted Living Facility.

- CMS ended its Special Focus Program for hospices with serious problems on Feb 14, 2025, so no hospice is marked as one.
