In Newark

How to read this table: "Overall" is the CMS star rating, which combines inspections, staffing, and quality measures from resident assessments and claims; "Inspection" is the on-site health inspection rating — the most independent signal, and the one CMS grades on a curve against other facilities in the same state. Flags are federal abuse citations and Special Focus status.

All bars start at zero. Exact values and supporting details remain below.

Both averages use the same 5 facilities, with equal weight per facility. 0 facilities are excluded because one or both values are unavailable. These are CMS case-mix-adjusted measures, not the hours any individual resident is guaranteed to receive.

Weekend staffing is lower than the all-week figure at 5 of these 5. Ask how weekend coverage and response times are maintained. This difference alone does not establish unsafe care.
