🚨Does not meet the CMS staffing benchmark of 3.48 HPRD. Current: 3.1672 HPRD — needs 0.31 more hours per resident per day.
⚠️Weekend staffing drops 28.09% — significantly higher than average. Residents receive substantially less care on Saturdays and Sundays.
⚠️43.48% of nursing hours come from agency/contract workers. High contractor reliance often means less continuity of care — staff who don't know the residents.
