Violations
Text reproduced verbatim · NYC Department of Health and Mental HygieneNearly every licensed provider accumulates some. A missing signature and an unlocked medicine cabinet are both “violations”, and they are not the same thing. Look at the class, the pattern over time and how quickly it was corrected — not the count alone.
Class is our grouping of the state’s own weights, reviewed per state. The agency’s own label is always shown beside it.

“Services fail to install interior fire alarms and/or sprinklers where required.”
“Staff and volunteers obtain documentation showing immunization with 2 doses measles/mumps, 1 dose rubella, 2 doses varicella and 1 dose Tdap. Medical exemptions only. History of measles, mumps or rubella shall Not replace MMR vaccine except in presence of MMR varicella antibodies.”
