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 5.25, RN 1.10, weekend 4.67.Comparing with Medicare Care Compare? Care Compare shows the raw figure (5.25 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.

• "What did your most recent kitchen inspection find, and can I see how food is stored and prepared?"
• "Can you tell me what this citation involved and what steps you took to bring care back up to standard?"
• "What exactly do you hand off to the next provider when a resident is discharged, and how do you confirm they received it?"
• "Who completes resident assessments here, and how do you check them for accuracy?"
• "How do you make sure each resident's care follows the doctor's orders, and what changed after this citation?"
• "Who leads your infection prevention program, and how do you make sure staff follow practices like hand hygiene every day?"

Also worth asking anywhere

• "Your weekend nurse staffing is reported below the California 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 29% total nursing staff turnover here — who on the care team has been with you longest?"
• "The ownership record on file lists 14 owning or managing parties — who makes the decisions about staffing levels?"
• "Can I visit again unannounced, at a mealtime or on a weekend?"
