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 3.27, RN 0.46, weekend 2.96.Comparing with Medicare Care Compare? Care Compare shows the raw figure (3.27 here, displayed there as hours and minutes), not the adjusted one above. Both are correct; they answer different questions. Staffing rating: 2/5.

• "What safeguards do you have to protect residents' money and belongings, and what happens when something goes missing?"
• "How do you screen new residents for mental health and disability-related needs, and how do you provide the specialized services they require?"
• "How do you prevent bedsores for residents who can't move themselves, and how often are at-risk residents repositioned?"
• "How many residents here use oxygen or breathing equipment, and who checks that equipment each shift?"
• "Can you show me how medications are stored and secured on the units, including controlled drugs?"
• "How do you care for residents with incontinence or catheters, and what do you do to prevent urinary tract infections?"
• "Can we tour the resident rooms, bathrooms, and common areas today, including areas not on the usual tour route?"
• "Who is on the team that builds each resident's care plan, and how quickly is it in place after admission?"

Also worth asking anywhere

• "Your weekend nurse staffing is reported below the North Carolina midpoint — how does the weekend schedule differ from a weekday?"
• "Can I see the plan of correction for the findings in your most recent state inspection?"
• "CMS reports 55% total nursing staff turnover here — who on the care team has been with you longest?"
• "The ownership record on file lists 26 owning or managing parties — who makes the decisions about staffing levels?"
• "Can I visit again unannounced, at a mealtime or on a weekend?"
