What these terms mean
Delaware’s Division of Health Care Quality inspects each assisted living facility at an annual visit and investigates complaints; a follow-up survey checks that cited problems were fixed. Each deficiency names the rule in Delaware’s assisted living regulations (16 Del. Admin. Code 3225) that was not met, and DHCQ’s statement of how it was not met.
Reports from 2024 on print a scope and severity code beside each deficiency. Delaware does not publish what these codes mean for assisted living, so we show the letter as printed.
The completion date is the date the facility gave in its plan of correction for being back in compliance with the rule.
The reports are scanned PDFs; rule numbers, codes and quoted statements were read from the scans and may contain reading errors, so check the report itself. Older reports may carry the facility’s earlier name; DHCQ files them under the same license number. Rule names are the section headings of the current regulations. This community is licensed for 44 residents; larger communities are inspected and reported on more often, so read counts with size in mind.

How Lilisity works. The only scores or rankings Lilisity publishes are the Top Communities list and the Excellence Awards, both built from phone-verified resident and family interviews. Communities can pay Lilisity a flat monthly fee to manage their own listing: photos, prices, contact details, and receiving the inquiries families choose to send them. The fee is the same no matter how many families contact them or move in. Senior Living Alliance, which runs Lilisity, offers the same listing to its member communities as part of their membership; members pay SLA for its resident and family interview program. No community pays Lilisity per inquiry, per referral or per move-in. Payment never changes a testimonial, a rating, or the order of search results. The "Nearby Senior Living Alliance communities" box shows member communities only. How we verify testimonials · How we are paid
