Hours per resident per day — compared to California state averages

Staff typeHours / Day / Residentvs state avg

LPN / LVN Info Licensed Practical Nurses (LPNs) or Licensed Vocational Nurses (LVNs) deliver routine hands-on care — medication administration, wound dressing, and monitoring vital signs.
