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 3.04, RN 0.83, weekend 2.63.Comparing with Medicare Care Compare? Care Compare shows the raw figure (3.04 here, displayed there as hours and minutes), not the adjusted one above. Both are correct; they answer different questions. Staffing rating: 3/5.

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

• "Who leads your infection prevention program, and how do you make sure staff follow practices like hand hygiene every day?"
• "How do you make sure each resident's care follows the doctor's orders, and what changed after this citation?"
• "What did your most recent kitchen inspection find, and can I see how food is stored and prepared?"
• "When abuse or theft is suspected, who do you notify, how fast, and how do you inform the family?"
• "What specific training do your nurse aides complete in dementia care and abuse prevention, and how often is it refreshed?"
• "What is your current policy for testing residents and staff when someone shows symptoms or there's an outbreak?"
• "If you ever planned to discharge or transfer my family member, how much written notice would we receive and how could we appeal?"
• "How do you assess and manage residents' pain, especially for those who have trouble communicating?"

Also worth asking anywhere

• "Your weekend nurse staffing is reported below the Nebraska 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 39% total nursing staff turnover here — who on the care team has been with you longest?"
• "The ownership record on file lists 19 owning or managing parties — who makes the decisions about staffing levels?"
• "Can I visit again unannounced, at a mealtime or on a weekend?"
