Nursing home inspection records in Oregon
In Oregon, 30.5% of the 128 Medicare-certified nursing homes were cited for harming a resident on two or more separate inspections, against 27.3% nationally, and 12.5% were cited at harm level under the same federal requirement more than once.
These are Oregon's figures from CMS's own files, computed for every certified home in Oregon. Use them to know what is ordinary for a home here — then compare a home only with other homes in Oregon, never with a home in another state, because each state's inspectors cite differently. By the share cited for harm on two or more inspections, Oregon ranks 19th highest of the 51 states and territories with at least 10 homes.

Oregon and the United States
Harm level means scope and severity G or worse. Staffing medians are over the homes that report them; a home that reports none is left out, never counted as zero.

Who owns Oregon's homes
Ownership type as CMS's provider file records it. Shares are of that group's homes in Oregon.
| Ownership | Homes | Share of state's homes | Same requirement twice | Harm on 2+ inspections | Fined |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| For profit | 111 | 86.7% | 12.6% | 30.6% | 50.5% |
| Non profit | 13 | 10.2% | 15.4% | 23.1% | 53.8% |
| Government | 4 | 3.1% | Fewer than 10 homes — no share is printed | ||
A difference between groups is not evidence that ownership causes it; the national study explains why.

What these figures cannot tell you
- They describe Oregon's homes as a group, not the home you are considering. Read that home's own record.
- Inspectors differ between states, so a figure here is comparable with other homes in Oregon, not with homes elsewhere.
- The citation file is a window: surveys from 23 Mar 2017 to 23 Jul 2026. Fines cover 19 Aug 2023 to 29 Jul 2026.
- A citation is not a court finding, and the file records a dispute, not its outcome.
