Staffing hours breakdown
Daily nursing hours per resident by staff type, reported to CMS. Higher is generally better — compare this facility to state and national averages to see where staffing stands.
| 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.
| 25m per day | ▼ 40% State avg: 42m 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 14m per day | ▲ 48% State avg: 50m 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 | ▼ 7% State avg: 2h 17m 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.

|
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 | ▼ 20% State avg: 5m per day · National avg: 4m 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.
| 13m per day | ▼ 54% State avg: 28m per day · National avg: 29m per day |

D
My experience at Wilton Meadows has revealed serious and ongoing problems that put residents at risk and create an unfair, unsafe environment for staff. The chain of command does not follow through on their responsibilities, and management shows very little concern for employees or residents. The only time leadership becomes attentive is when the state is expected to visit. Staff are told to “do what you need to do because the state is coming,” instead of maintaining proper standards every day.Resident care is deeply inconsistent and often unsafe. Many residents are not fed on time, and it is not unusual for someone to reach lunchtime without having eaten breakfast. Feeding is done randomly by whoever decides to do it, rather than by assigned staff. Night shift employees have been seen sleeping on the job and double‑diapering residents so they do not have to change them as required. These practices violate basic care standards and put vulnerable people at risk.Staffing and workload issues are severe. New CNAs hired through the facility’s training class are taken advantage of by older CNAs who have been there 15+ years. Some CNAs clock in at the glass door, return to their cars, and come inside 15–20 minutes later while already on the clock. Certain employees are allowed to do very little work with no consequences. Pregnant employees are excused from most tasks, and younger CNAs are told to do their work for them, even when the tasks are essential to resident care.Many employees work full 8‑hour shifts without receiving a break. Management does not address these issues and appears more focused on funding than on resident care or staff support.What makes this even more heartbreaking is that families trust Wilton Meadows with their loved ones, believing they are receiving proper care. If families truly knew what was happening behind closed doors, they would be shocked. The management does not run Wilton Meadows — the senior CNAs do — and many of them take advantageWhat do you like most about living here?
