Also, pay attention to the types of deficiencies that are documented in" rel="nofollow">in the survey. How many people are likely to be affected by the problem, i.e. would it impact many of the residents or few? What are the likely consequences of the deficiency? Are they serious?

Does that change your analysis of how serious the deficiencies are?

Does the Quality Measures Ratin" rel="nofollow">ing seem consistent with the in" rel="nofollow">inspection report?
