This is a Fire Safety survey. CMS cites these findings under the Life Safety Code and Emergency Preparedness rules, a separate set from the health (F-tag) deficiencies. The codes and grading differ, so these do not link to the health violation pages.

What do CMS severity letters mean?

Serious (G-L). Actual harm to a resident, or immediate jeopardy. Codes G through I indicate actual harm; J through L indicate immediate jeopardy to resident health or safety.

General (A-F). No actual harm found, or harm that is minimal. The facility must still submit a Plan of Correction. Most CMS citations land here.

Each letter combines severity with scope: how many residents the deficiency affected.
