What these terms mean
DQA: “A survey can take place for many reasons: To recertify or renew a facility's license. This is called a standard survey. To make sure a provider has fixed any issues found in a past survey. This is called a verification (follow-up) visit survey. To look at a complaint or incident. This is called an investigation visit survey.” VV in a survey type means a verification visit.
“The surveyor notes any violations of laws or requirements on a Statement of Deficiency (SOD) form.” “A deficiency is something that goes against a state or federal regulation. It's also called a violation.”
“Enforcement includes actions or penalties (also called remedies) for the provider. They may apply to the provider based on how serious their deficiency/violation is or how long it takes them to fix it. If a provider gets a penalty, you'll see a document under Enforcement.”
“For registered (not certified) residential care apartment complexes, surveys only happen if there's a complaint. If the surveyor finds problems, they issue a Notice of Non-Compliance letter instead of an SOD form.”
Rule numbers refer to Wisconsin Administrative Code chapter DHS 83 (community-based residential facilities) and DHS 89 (residential care apartment complexes). The short rule titles are the ones DQA prints in each statement; quoted findings are the report’s own words.
DQA posts surveys from the last three years. DHS says posting may be delayed and Provider Search is updated weekly. This community is licensed for 40 residents; larger communities are surveyed 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
