You should keep in mind that the severity of the deficiencies is arguably more important than the quantity of deficiencies, as some end up being quite insignificant. This particular nursing home had just a single deficiency on its inspection report and it was not one deemed to pose a threat to patient health or safety. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.

Major falls can many times be avoided if more nurses aids and better safety protocols are in place.
