No

The Special Focus Facility program identifies facilities for additional oversight because of a history of quality issues. A candidate is not the same as a selected program participant. Status is shown as reported in this release.

The CMS abuse icon flags a facility cited for abuse. Check current Care Compare inspection details and dates for context. An absent icon does not establish the absence of all concerns.

Reported staffing hours are unadjusted hours per resident per day. Comparisons are arithmetic means of reporting facilities, not resident-weighted averages. Fines reflect CMS enforcement amounts in this release; they are not a lifetime total.
