What stands out
- Reported nurse hours are 6% below the MA averageIf the building is staffed better than this, hours may be missing from the PBJ file. Agency staff, contract nurses and salaried nurse managers are the most common gaps.
- Weekend staffing drops 14% from the weekly averageCMS reports weekend staffing separately and surveyors look at it. Check whether weekend agency and per diem hours are making it into PBJ.
- Nursing turnover is 6 points above the MA averageHigh turnover drives agency spend, onboarding workload and PBJ errors from constant employee changes. Recruiting and onboarding support pays off quickly here.
