What these staffing numbers mean →

Hours are per resident per day for the most recent quarter of payroll data in this CMS release (2026-08-01) — the same quarter for every facility — case-mix adjusted by CMS so facilities caring for sicker residents can be compared fairly (same basis as the CMS staffing star). "Top X%" means better than most facilities: more staffing hours, or lower turnover. Raw (unadjusted) reported hours: total 4.24, RN 0.89, weekend 3.84.Comparing with Medicare Care Compare? Care Compare shows the raw figure (4.24 here, displayed there as hours and minutes), not the adjusted one above. Both are correct; they answer different questions. Staffing rating: 5/5.

Generated from this facility's actual citation record — bring them to a tour and ask the administrator directly.

• "If my family member falls or their condition changes, exactly when and how will I be notified?"
• "Can you tell me what this citation involved and what steps you took to bring care back up to standard?"
• "How do you make sure each resident's care follows the doctor's orders, and what changed after this citation?"
• "What is your falls rate, and what specific steps do you take to prevent falls and supervise residents at risk?"
• "How do you monitor residents' weight and eating, and what happens when someone starts losing weight?"
• "Walk me through what happens when a resident or family files a grievance — who responds and how fast?"
• "If my family member's health suddenly changes, how quickly do you reassess them and update their care?"
• "Can you give me examples of how your staff protect residents' dignity in everyday care, like bathing and dressing?"

Also worth asking anywhere

• "What is your current ratio of nursing staff to residents on day, evening, and weekend shifts?"
• "Can I see the plan of correction for the findings in your most recent state inspection?"
• "CMS reports 43% total nursing staff turnover here — who on the care team has been with you longest?"
• "The ownership record on file lists 15 owning or managing parties — who makes the decisions about staffing levels?"
• "Can I visit again unannounced, at a mealtime or on a weekend?"
