🚨Had 16 days with zero RN hours this quarter — CMS automatically assigns a 1-star staffing rating for 4+ days.
⚠️RN staffing (0.2185 HPRD) is below the research-recommended minimum of 0.75 HPRD. This means less clinical oversight per resident.
⚠️24.82% of nursing hours come from agency/contract workers. High contractor reliance often means less continuity of care — staff who don't know the residents.
