You should keep in mind that the severity of these deficiencies is usually more important than the number of deficiencies, as some end up being relatively insignificant. This facility was hit with 3 deficiencies on its inspection report, but none were considered to be severe deficiencies. This means that the inspectors didn't deem any of these deficiencies an imminent threat to resident health or safety. Finally, this facility had no substantiated complaints this year from residents, which is an excellent sign.
