Most importantly, these places should not have any severe deficiencies which are associated with endangerment of patients. This facility was hit with 7 deficiencies on its inspection report, but none were considered to be severe. This indicates that the government inspectors didn't deem any of these deficiencies to cause an imminent threat to patient safety or health.
