What these terms mean
Idaho law: “Core issues” means “abuse, neglect, exploitation, inadequate care, inoperable fire detection or extinguishing systems with no fire watch in place pending the correction of the system, and surveyors denied access to records, residents, or facilities.” A “non-core issue” is “any finding of deficient practice that is not a core issue” (Idaho Code 39-3302).
Facilities “must correct non-core issues within thirty (30) calendar days of the exit conference” (IDAPA 16.03.22.127). Facilities without core issues in two consecutive licensure surveys are inspected at least every 36 months; facilities with core issues at least every 15 months.
“A provisional license may be issued when a facility has one (1) or more core issues, when non-core issues have not been corrected, have become repeat deficiencies, or an acceptable plan of correction is not submitted” (IDAPA 16.03.22.935).
FLARES awards: “Gold Excellence in Care Award - No deficiencies were cited during the survey”; “Silver Excellence in Care Award - No core deficiencies were found and there were three or fewer non-core deficiencies cited during the survey.”
Each cited rule is shown with the heading the State printed in its report. Idaho’s assisted living rules changed on July 1, 2026, and some section numbers now point to different rules, so read each citation with its heading.

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
