| Measure | Monday–Friday | Saturday–Sunday |
|---|---|---|
| Total nursing | 3.515 | 3.114 |
| RN categories | 0.41 | 0.262 |
Contract staff accounted for 16% of reported nursing hours included in this quarter calculation.
Reported RN-category hours per resident day were 0.031 higher than the prior loaded quarter.

Hours-per-resident-day values are calculated by this platform from CMS-published daily PBJ hours and MDS census. For each displayed period, included hours are summed and divided by the summed census for days with a positive census. They are not CMS case-mix-adjusted staffing measures or a staffing rating.
