Staffing & Workforce

Direct-care staffing is the strongest operational driver of quality in nursing homes. Values are hours per resident per day, derived from payroll-based journal (PBJ) submissions. "Case-mix" adjusts for resident acuity; "Adjusted" is the CMS rating-input value.

Health Inspections

CMS weights three inspection cycles to compute the Health Inspection rating: the most recent (50%), the second most recent (33%), and the oldest (17%). Each standard-survey deficiency is assigned a score based on scope and severity; complaint-survey findings and revisit scores are added to produce the cycle total.

Cycle Date Total defs. Standard Complaint Deficiency score Revisits Total score
Cycle 1 (most recent) 2025-06-12 10 10 0 84 1 84
Cycle 2/3 (prior) 2023-10-19 7 6 1 72 1 72
Total weighted health score

Deficiencies (22)

Individual survey findings. Scope/severity uses the CMS A–L matrix: letters further down the alphabet indicate greater harm and wider scope, up through J–L (immediate jeopardy).
