| Staff type | Hours / Day / Resident | 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.
| 9m per day | ▼ 68% State avg: 28m 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.
| 48m per day | ▲ 17% State avg: 41m 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 55m per day | ▲ 25% State avg: 2h 20m per day · National avg: 2h 21m per day |
|
Weekend Total Nursing
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 38m per day | ▲ 19% State avg: 3h 3m per day · National avg: 3h 26m per day |
|
Weekend RN
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.
| 19m per day | ▼ 5% State avg: 20m per day · National avg: 29m per day |

An editor-reviewed summary of the themes and findings across this facility's recent inspection reports.
The most recent inspection on December 23, 2025, identified deficiencies related to sanitation and food safety in the kitchen, specifically concerning unclean areas and improper food handling. Earlier inspections showed a pattern of issues primarily involving resident dignity and care, fall prevention, staffing adequacy, and timely communication with physicians, with some residents experiencing actual harm. Complaint investigations found one substantiated case of verbal abuse by staff, though physical abuse allegations were inconclusive, and other complaints about fall risk management and condition reporting resulted in findings of actual harm. Enforcement actions such as fines or license suspensions were not listed in the available reports. While deficiencies have appeared consistently over time, the most recent inspection focused on kitchen sanitation rather than resident care, indicating some shifts in areas needing attention.
