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 3.97, RN 0.76, weekend 3.63.Comparing with Medicare Care Compare? Care Compare shows the raw figure (3.97 here, displayed there as hours and minutes), not the adjusted one above. Both are correct; they answer different questions. Staffing rating: 4/5.

• "What does the care plan for a brand-new resident cover in the first 48 hours, and who writes it?"
• "Before any service that isn't covered by Medicare or Medicaid, how will you notify us and get our agreement?"
• "If my family member goes to the hospital, how long will you hold their bed, and will we get that in writing?"
• "Who completes resident assessments here, and how do you check them for accuracy?"
• "Can you tell me what this citation involved and what steps you took to bring care back up to standard?"
• "How many residents here use oxygen or breathing equipment, and who checks that equipment each shift?"
