Questions to take to Weston County Health Services

  • The snapshot includes a CMS abuse citation icon. Ask which inspection it relates to, what corrective action followed, and whether CMS has updated the designation.
  • The published staff-turnover figure is 58.9%. Ask which reporting period it covers and how the current staffing team compares.
  • Check the source date and the latest official record before deciding. Bring the issues above to a visit or call rather than treating the profile as a recommendation.
