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 5.37, RN 1.21, weekend 4.83.Comparing with Medicare Care Compare? Care Compare shows the raw figure (5.37 here, displayed there as hours and minutes), not the adjusted one above. Both are correct; they answer different questions. Staffing rating: 5/5.

• "What did your most recent kitchen inspection find, and can I see how food is stored and prepared?"
• "Who leads your infection prevention program, and how do you make sure staff follow practices like hand hygiene every day?"
• "Who owns and governs this facility, and how long has the current administrator been here?"
