Good Samaritan Society - Socorro has been cited for a total of 82 deficiencies since we began saving each survey. We believe it is worthwhile to show how things are and were. Some improve and some get worse. Rather than a snapshot, we take s longer view than most. A longer view, we believe, paints a better and more worthwhile picture. We start from them most recent and go back as you scroll down.

Tip: Surveys happen throughout the year and you may want to check with the location or here to see if more recent data is available for Good Samaritan Society - Socorro.

Since we bagan longer term (multi year tracking, numbers will naturally be higher than 3 (or so surverys).
There are 74 nursing homes in New Mexico with a total of 5,691 deficiencies resulting in an average of 76.91 deficiencies per nursing home.



The following table describes how deficiencies are scored. An easy way to remember the severity of a deficiency's scope is that the further along in the alphabet (A through L) the scope value is, the more severe the deficiency is.
