What This Means in Plain English

🔍 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.
⚠️RN staffing (0.3756 HPRD) is below the research-recommended minimum of 0.75 HPRD. This means less clinical oversight per resident.
⚠️15.44% of nursing hours come from agency/contract workers. High contractor reliance often means less continuity of care — staff who don't know the residents.
