Whitefish Care and Rehab: 11 Deficiencies, No Fix Plan - MT
The citation, tagged F0887, references CDC guidance on routine vaccine considerations for healthcare settings. Inspectors completed their review on October 22, 2025.
The deficiency report, which runs to 22 pages, does not detail in its available summary what specific vaccine practices were found lacking, or how many residents were involved beyond the characterization of "few." The harm level assigned, the lowest tier in the federal deficiency scale, indicates inspectors did not find evidence that residents had been injured, only that conditions existed where harm could have occurred.
Whitefish Care and Rehabilitation operates at 1305 E 7th St in Whitefish, a small city in northwestern Montana. The inspection was triggered by a complaint, meaning someone, whether a resident, family member, or staff, contacted regulators before inspectors arrived.
The facility's plan of correction was not included in the portion of the inspection record made available. Residents or family members seeking details about how the facility intends to address the finding were directed to contact the nursing home or the Montana state survey agency directly.
What the record leaves unanswered is whose complaint set the inspection in motion, and whether the residents affected received the vaccinations they were owed before inspectors closed out their visit.
