Standout metric
LPN / LVN is +30% above state avg
| 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.
| 16m per day | ▼ 16% State avg: 19m 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 32m per day | ▲ 30% State avg: 1h 11m 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 12m per day | ▼ 6% 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 16m per day | ■ Avg State avg: 3h 16m 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.
| 10m per day | ▼ 23% State avg: 13m per day · National avg: 29m per day |

Inspection Reports Summary
An editor-reviewed summary of the themes and findings across this facility's recent inspection reports.
The most recent inspection on December 22, 2025, identified deficiencies related to medical record accuracy for enteral feeding, infection prevention practices including signage and PPE use, and privacy curtain provision in semi-private rooms. Earlier inspections showed a pattern of issues with documentation accuracy, infection control, resident assessments, and discharge procedures. Complaint investigations substantiated problems with timely notifications to responsible parties, abuse reporting, and discharge planning, though enforcement actions such as fines or license suspensions were not listed in the available reports. Prior inspections also noted an Immediate Jeopardy situation in July 2024 involving defective mechanical lift slings that caused resident injury, which was resolved after corrective action. The facility’s inspection history indicates ongoing challenges with documentation and infection control, with some improvement in addressing safety concerns since the Immediate Jeopardy was removed.
