Editorial note: a star rating is one signal. CMS itself says ratings can't capture everything, such as specialty care or how easy it is for family to visit.
Staffing
Hours of nursing care per resident per day, as reported by the home to CMS through payroll-based data. Higher is generally better when comparing homes; it is an average, not the number of staff present at any moment.
CMS case-mix adjusted total nurse hours: 4.09. Lower turnover is generally better. Source: CMS Provider Information (Oct 1, 2026). “n/r” = not reported.
