Reading these results
CMS's overall star rating combines health inspections, staffing and quality measures. Inspection citations are sorted by severity, from “potential for minimal harm” up to “immediate jeopardy”, the most serious. Inspections happen roughly once a year, plus extra visits when someone files a complaint, so a facility's citations reflect what inspectors saw on those days.
