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 4.55, RN 0.76, weekend 4.01.Comparing with Medicare Care Compare? Care Compare shows the raw figure (4.55 here, displayed there as hours and minutes), not the adjusted one above. Both are correct; they answer different questions. Staffing rating: 4/5.

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

• "What is your falls rate, and what specific steps do you take to prevent falls and supervise residents at risk?"
• "What did your most recent kitchen inspection find, and can I see how food is stored and prepared?"
• "What safeguards do you have to protect residents' money and belongings, and what happens when something goes missing?"
• "Does a pharmacist review every resident's medications and chart monthly, and how are their concerns acted on?"
• "What is your approach to psychiatric medications — how do you try non-drug options first and work to reduce doses over time?"
• "How do you make sure each resident's care follows the doctor's orders, and what changed after this citation?"
• "How does your quality committee work, and can you give an example of a problem it recently identified and fixed?"
• "How do you record and honor each resident's treatment wishes and advance directives, and how do staff know about them?"

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 28% total nursing staff turnover here — who on the care team has been with you longest?"
• "Can I visit again unannounced, at a mealtime or on a weekend?"
