At Charlestown Community Inc, inspectors found that wasn't reliably happening.

But the classification does carry a formal finding of potential for more than minimal harm.

That finding, cited under a category covering resident rights, is one that nursing home regulators treat as foundational.

Inspectors classified the harm level as minimal harm or potential for actual harm, and noted that some residents were affected.

Inspectors found no documented evidence that anyone tracked the resident's condition during the course of treatment.

One of those citations addressed something fundamental to nursing home care: whether residents were being accurately assessed at all.

At Complete Care at Hyattsville, inspectors found it didn't.

The citation fell under the category of resident rights deficiencies.

The deficiency falls under a category inspectors use to flag breakdowns in nursing and physician services, the operational core of any long-term care facility.

The administrator acknowledged the gap directly: residents were at risk of bug bites if pest activity increased inside the building, she said.

The violation was one of 23 deficiencies inspectors cited during the visit, which was triggered by a complaint.

Resident 46 had been at the facility since at least June 30, 2025, when a Medicare Part A skilled services episode began.
