[Audio Blog] Common Citations in Nursing Homes and Their Underlying Risks

Qsource Podcasts

Recurring nursing home citations often point to deeper systemic issues, not individual errors. This blog explores five of the most frequently cited F-tags: F880 (infection control), F689 (accident hazards), F684 (quality of care), F812 (food safety), and F600 (abuse prevention), highlighting how staffing challenges, inconsistent protocols, and leadership turnover contribute to repeat deficiencies. Qsource supports facilities in recognizing these high-risk areas early and implementing proactive, sustainable strategies to maintain compliance and improve care outcomes.
