Standout metric
LPN / LVN is +21% above state avg
| Staff type | Hours / day | vs state avg |
|---|---|---|
|
Registered Nurse (RN)
RNs hold the highest nursing license and can assess residents, interpret test results, and direct care plans. More RN hours per day often signals stronger clinical oversight and faster response to health changes.
| 21m per day | ▼ 57% State avg: 49m per day · National avg: 41m per day |
|
LPN / LVN
Licensed Practical Nurses (LPNs) or Licensed Vocational Nurses (LVNs) deliver routine hands-on care — medication administration, wound dressing, and monitoring vital signs. They work under RN supervision and make up a large share of daily bedside care.
| 1h 4m per day | ▲ 21% State avg: 53m per day · National avg: 52m per day |
|
Nurse Aide
Certified Nurse Aides (CNAs) provide the most direct day-to-day assistance: bathing, dressing, feeding, and mobility. Nurse aide hours are typically the largest staffing category and directly affect residents' quality of life.
| 2h 7m per day | ▼ 18% State avg: 2h 35m per day · National avg: 2h 21m per day |
|
Total Nursing (Weekend)
Combined nursing hours (RN + LPN + Nurse Aide) per resident per day on weekends. Staffing often drops on weekends — this figure reveals whether the facility maintains adequate coverage outside of weekday hours.
| 3h 13m per day | ▼ 13% State avg: 3h 41m per day · National avg: 3h 26m per day |
|
Physical Therapist
Hours per resident per day provided by licensed Physical Therapists (PTs) or PT Assistants. PT services help residents recover mobility after injury or illness and are especially important for post-acute (short-stay) rehabilitation.
| 3m per day | ▼ 50% State avg: 6m per day · National avg: 4m per day |
|
RN (Weekend)
Registered nurse hours specifically on weekends. Facilities sometimes reduce RN presence on Saturdays and Sundays — a low weekend RN figure compared to weekday hours can indicate reduced clinical oversight when most administrative staff are absent.
| 10m per day | ▼ 69% State avg: 32m per day · National avg: 29m per day |

Christian Triana
I have been an LNA at Barre Gardens on prospect street for 8 months.Today I was fired. Here is why.To begin with, this facility is facing huge troubles with staffing of all departments. Housekeeping, laundry, nursing/lnas, cooks. Everything.They are on the short list to be a "Special Focus" facility which is a designation meaning they have messed up so bad they have to be watched and investigated very closely by state and Medicare officials.Starting last week a resident in the dementia wing flushed incontinence wipes and hurt the plumbing badly. In a knee-jerk reaction, they decided to eliminate wet wipes for the entire facility over night and move to washcloths. This in itself is not uncommon. Some facilities only use washcloths.The problem is that the facility did not have the washcloths to accommodate 90 residents daily needs. Quickly the situation became so dire that LNAs were forced to use bed flat/fitted sheets, pillow cases and basically anything available to take care of residents incontinence needs.Last Friday the night shift situation was so dire that there were a total of 15 washcloths for 90 residents at the start of the 11pm shift. There were virtually no other linens as well as the laundry team is short staffed and we had been using them as well.I contacted the director of nursing to report the issue and was told there were wipes available. I had to go down into the supply and a lock that was poorly rigged to a previous fix came undone. I found no wipes. I then had to push open a door to the laundry room that was marked "do not enter" and the Director of nursing did not know the code for and all nurses keys in the building did not open. The door was marked because it had a folding table against it inside. I pushed my way inside and retrieved 70 or so washcloths. Barely enough for the entire building to provide care for your loved ones.The next day shift would have basically nothing again until almost noon to care for patients.What do you like most about living here?
