Quality Outcomes

What the numbers mean

FAIRMOUNT HOMES scored 87 out of 100 — 22 points above the state average of 65.

📋 Inspections: No deficiency citations on record in the last 36 months — a strong indicator of consistent regulatory compliance.

👥 Staffing: Staffing is within an acceptable range but not among the highest-performing facilities. Ask about nurse coverage on evenings, nights, and weekends when you visit.

⚖️ Penalties & enforcement: No significant federal fines or enforcement actions on record — a positive indicator of consistent regulatory compliance.

💬 Complaints: Low complaint activity — few formal complaints from residents or families have triggered inspections. Ask if there is a family council you can speak with.

⚠️ Resident quality outcomes: Some quality measures are below national benchmarks. Areas like fall prevention, pain management, or medication use may warrant closer attention.

Repeat findings

⚖ Penalties & Enforcement

Federal civil monetary penalties (CMPs) are only issued after a facility has failed two levels of regulatory review — meaning problems were found on inspection and the facility could not rebut the findings. This is a serious escalation beyond a standard citation.

✅

No federal penalties on record. CMS has not issued civil monetary penalties or payment denials against this facility in the current reporting period.

📋 Enforcement Context Analysis

📊

Enforcement score: 100/100 — above the state average of 71/100 — relatively better than peer facilities. This is a positive indicator — limited enforcement history compared to peer facilities.

✅ No enforcement actions on record. This facility's enforcement score of 100/100 reflects a clean enforcement history in the current CMS reporting cycle.

📅 Per-action enforcement records (date, fine amount, and penalty type for each individual action) are sourced from a separate CMS enforcement dataset and will be added in a future data update.

Share of long-stay residents given antipsychotic drugs. High use can signal residents being over-medicated rather than receiving attentive care.

28.8% higher is better

Share of long-stay residents vaccinated against the flu this season. Higher is better.

Re-hospitalized after discharge ★

11.7% lower is better

How often short-stay residents who went home ended up back in the hospital within 30 days. Risk-adjusted for resident health.

Hospitalization rate ★

2.5% lower is better
