Complete data begins January 2011 (although some earlier inspections do show up). Individual states are provides as CSV files. A very large (4.5GB) national file is also provided as a zipped archive. New data will be updated on a monthly basis. For additional documentation, please see the README.

The facility census was 59. Findings are: A. Observation on 7/29/14 at 9:00 AM revealed RN (Registered Nurse) - C administered an injection for Resident 41 without wearing gloves. B. Observations on 7/29/14 at 8:30 AM and on 7/30/14 at 7:30 AM and at 1:20 PM revealed a soiled and uncovered plastic graduated cylinder, used to measure urinary output, stored on the back of the toilet for Resident 41. C. Observations on 7/29/14 at 8:30 AM and on 7/30/14 at 7:30 AM and 1:20 PM revealed an opened gallon container of distilled water on the bedside table and on the floor under the sink for Resident 6. Further observations revealed no date on the containers when they were opened. Interview on 7/30/14 at 1:20 PM with the Infection Control Coordinator confirmed that the nurses were to wear gloves when administering injections to reduce the risk of cross contamination. Further interview confirmed that the plastic graduate cylinders were to be cleaned after use and stored in a bag in the resident's bathroom. The Infection Control Coordinator also confirmed that the distilled water containers were to be dated when opened and were not to be stored on the floor to reduce the risk of cross contamination.	2018-05-01
