What stands out

- Weekend staffing drops 15% 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 12 points above the NY averageHigh turnover drives agency spend, onboarding workload and PBJ errors from constant employee changes. Recruiting and onboarding support pays off quickly here.
