Standout metric

| 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.
| 54m per day | ▼ 4% State avg: 56m per day · National avg: 41m 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.
| 3h 4m per day | ▲ 21% State avg: 2h 32m 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 56m per day | ▲ 13% State avg: 3h 29m 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.
| 4m per day | ■ Avg State avg: 4m 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.

Montana average: 21 deficiencies
Inspection Report Summary for Gallatin Rest Home
The most recent inspection on June 5, 2025, found deficiencies related to incomplete investigation of a resident theft allegation and several other issues including psychotropic medication consent, care plan updates, pressure ulcer care, fall prevention, dialysis policies, and infection control. Earlier inspections showed a pattern of deficiencies involving resident care, safety, infection control, and meal service, as well as substantiated complaints of staff verbal abuse and inadequate abuse investigations. Inspectors cited failures to protect residents from verbal abuse, incomplete investigations of abuse and theft allegations, and lapses in infection prevention and quality assurance practices. Complaint investigations were substantiated in cases of verbal abuse, resulting in staff termination, but most other complaints were unsubstantiated or lacked thorough follow-up. The facility’s recent inspection results indicate ongoing challenges with resident care and investigation processes, with no clear improvement trend evident.
