What F757 requires
F757 corresponds to the federal standard: Ensure each resident’s drug regimen must be free from unnecessary drugs.. 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 4 — Immediate jeopardy 28
- Level 3 — Actual harm 21
- Level 2 — No actual harm, potential for more than minimal 3,308
- Level 1 — Potential for minimal harm 3

Methodology F757 counts reflect publicly-filed deficiency findings from state survey teams working
under federal contract. A citation is not a court judgment or admission of wrongdoing.
Facilities may contest findings through Informal Dispute Resolution (IDR/IIDR).
Has a loved one been affected by a F757 violation?
An attorney who focuses on nursing-home abuse and neglect can review the facility's record with you — citation patterns, scope/severity levels, complaint-driven findings — and tell you whether the law recognizes what happened.
