The most persistent problems involve resident safety and accident prevention, medication management, and protection from abuse and neglect, with these same issues appearing repeatedly from 2023 through 2025 despite corrections. While all violations have correction dates, the pattern of recurring deficiencies in critical care areas suggests ongoing systemic challenges that families should carefully consider.
