The short answer

The last 24 months 7 deficiencies in 1 month of the last 36. Last cited Mar 2025. Most serious: Standard-level. Every month

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.

Mar 6, 2025: reaccreditation inspection by The Joint Commission7 deficiencies
  • Plan Based on All Hazards Risk Assessment (42 CFR 418.113(a)(1))

    “Observed in Emergency Management Session. On review of the organization’s emergency plan the Hazardous vulnerability assessment did not address specific areas of risk for their area and cover all areas of risk. Examples include no emerging infections identified, no natural hazards such as flooding, and no technology hazards. This finding was reviewed with the Administrator Designee.”

    Rule E0006. Standard-level.

  • Plan Based on All Hazards Risk Assessment (42 CFR 418.113(a)(2))

    The inspectors’ words, 124 words

    “Observed in Emergency Management Session. The organization could not evaluate and prioritize findings from an HVA, because that had not conducted a comprehensive HVA covering all area of potential vulnerability. This was reviewed with the Administrator Designee Observed in Emergency Management Session. The organization conducted a HVA but it did cover all areas of risk so that priority of highest likelihood for occurrence could be put in their Emergency plan. On the agency’s HVA plan the each area was not calculated on the plan to put in a priority in the Emergency plan. While the actual Emergency plan covered COVID, terrorism, fires and earthquakes, this was not based on the prioritized risks from the HVA. This finding was reviewed and discussed with Administrator Designee.”

    Rule E0006. Standard-level.

  • Content of comprehensive assessment (42 CFR 418.54(c)(7))

    “Observed in Record Review. On 1 of 2 bereavement records reviewed, the organization did not complete a bereavement risk assessment per the organizations policy. Agency Bereavement policy (2-010.1) states that a bereavement risk assessment will be completed by the social worker at time of admission. On RRBR #2, it was noted that there was no bereavement assessment completed on admission. This finding was reviewed with Hospice leadership.”

    Rule L0531. Standard-level.

  • Content of plan of care (42 CFR 418.56(c)(2))

    The inspectors’ words, 117 words

    “Observed in Record Review. On 4 of 10 active patient records reviewed, the plan of care did not reflect the scope and frequency of services for the patient. On RRHV #1, RRHV #2 and RRHV #3, it was noted that the chaplain had made telephone visits with the caregiver, two phone call visits had been made and the frequency of these visits were not reflected on the plan of care. On RRNHV #4, it was noted that the chaplain has been making monthly telephone visits to the patient since admission 10 months ago and the visit frequency is not reflected on the POC.This finding was reviewed with hospice leadership. This finding was reviewed with the hospice leadership.”

    Rule L0547. Standard-level.

  • Content of plan of care (42 CFR 418.56(c)(3))

    The inspectors’ words, 101 words

    “Observed in Record Review. In 7 of 10 active patient records reviewed, the organization failed to ensure the plan of care was updated based on the patient’s reassessment and progress toward goals. In RRNHV #1, RRNHV #2, RRNHV #3, RRNHV #4, RRNHV #5, RRNHV #6 and RRNHV #7, the plans of care had not been updated to reflect the current assessment, achieving goals that had been achieved. For example, every chart had teaching goals that were unaltered for IDG to IDG since admission 9-11 months ago with no change or update to their progress. This finding was reviewed with hospice leadership.”

    Rule L0548. Standard-level.

  • Counseling services (42 CFR 418.64(d)(1)(iii))

    “Observed in Record Review. On 1 of 2 bereaved records reviewed, the organization did not reflect the needs of the bereaved. On RRBR #2, the organization did not reflect the needs of the bereaved because there was no bereaved person identified on the assessment. This finding was reviewed with Hospice Leadership.”

    Rule L0596. Standard-level.

  • Training (42 CFR 418.100(g)(3))

    “Observed in HR File Review. On 3 of 3 HR records reviewed of employees hired over 1 year ago, the organization did not complete an yearly competency assessment of the employee. Agency HR Competency Assessment policy (1.008) states that a competency assessment using the hire skills list will be done every year. On HR #1 and HR #6 and Volunteer #1, it was noted that the employee did not have a yearly competency documented for 2023 and 2022. This finding was reviewed with the Administrator Designee.”

    Rule L0663. Standard-level.

What the record doesn’t say

  • CMS doesn’t publish fines or other penalties for hospices, so none are shown.
  • Only complaints that led to a citation appear; complaints that didn’t aren’t published.
  • CMS ended its Special Focus Program for hospices with serious problems on Feb 14, 2025, so no hospice is marked as one.
  • Hospice quality measures have a gap from October 2025: CMS replaced its patient assessment then, and public results from the new one (HOPE) are expected around November 2027.
