🔍 Areas of Concern (3)

⚠️Had 1 day with zero registered nurse hours this quarter. While below the 4-day threshold for an auto 1-star rating, any zero-RN day is a concern.
⚠️35.59% of nursing hours come from agency/contract workers. High contractor reliance often means less continuity of care — staff who don't know the residents.
📊Staffing levels are highly variable day to day (consistency score: 1.0122). This means the care experience can be very different depending on the day.
