What F151 requires
F151 corresponds to the federal standard: Honor a residents' rights as a residents of the nursing home, free of coercion and reprisal, and as citizens or residents of the United States.. When a surveyor finds that a facility is not meeting this standard, they cite the tag and assign a scope/severity letter (A–L) describing how widespread the issue is and how much harm it caused.
Severity distribution
- Level 2 — No actual harm, potential for more than minimal 2

under federal contract. A citation is not a court judgment or admission of wrongdoing.
Facilities may contest findings through Informal Dispute Resolution (IDR/IIDR).
