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 5.20, RN 0.95, weekend 4.66.Comparing with Medicare Care Compare? Care Compare shows the raw figure (5.20 here, displayed there as hours and minutes), not the adjusted one above. Both are correct; they answer different questions. Staffing rating: 4/5.

• "Could I join residents for a meal to see the food quality and temperature for myself?"
• "What does the care plan for a brand-new resident cover in the first 48 hours, and who writes it?"
• "How often is each resident's medication list reviewed, and who decides when a drug can be reduced or stopped?"
• "Who completes resident assessments here, and how do you check them for accuracy?"
• "How do you care for residents with incontinence or catheters, and what do you do to prevent urinary tract infections?"
