Levindale Hebrew: Abuse Reporting Failures - MD

Healthcare Facility
Levindale Hebrew Ger Ctr & Hsp
Baltimore, MD  ·  2/5 stars

The inspection, completed November 18, 2025, documented a violation under F0578, the federal tag covering resident rights related to records access and notification. Inspectors rated the harm level as minimal, with a few residents affected.

The finding turned on an interview conducted two days after the initial survey visit. On November 20, an ombudsman identified in the report as Ombudsman #25 told the surveyor that a staff member identified as SWD #24 had previously told them she was the social worker for residents at the facility. The nature of the problem with that representation, and what it meant for the residents involved, is documented elsewhere in the full inspection report, which runs 23 pages.

Inspectors raised the issue directly with facility leadership on the afternoon of November 18, sharing their concerns with both the administrator and the director of nursing at 2:23 p.m.

The violation carried no immediate jeopardy designation. Federal inspectors classified it at the lower end of the harm scale, meaning the conduct had not caused serious injury but created the potential for it. For the residents whose records and rights sat at the center of the question, the distinction between potential harm and actual harm is the difference the facility will now have to account for in its plan of correction.

Levindale Hebrew Ger Ctr & Hsp operates at 2434 West Belvedere Avenue in Baltimore.
