Begin with the state record itself: ask what was changed after the level A1 fine under .0901(c) Personal Care and Supervision, and who now checks that it holds.
- Ask for a copy of the December 18, 2025 statement of deficiencies and the plan of correction that answered it.
- Ask to see last month's night and weekend schedules instead of an average staffing figure.
- Ask for the special care unit's disclosure statement and the number of staff posted inside the unit on each shift.
- Ask whether Special Assistance and Medicaid personal care services are accepted before you count on either.
- Read the residency agreement at home first: fees, the notice required before a rate increase, and discharge terms.
