What stands out
- Staffing rating is 2 of 5 starsStaffing is weighted heavily in the overall rating. Missing agency hours, job code mapping errors or excluded staff in PBJ can understate the hours you actually provide.
- Reported nurse hours are 17% below the VT 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.
- Nursing turnover is 24 points above the VT averageHigh turnover drives agency spend, onboarding workload and PBJ errors from constant employee changes. Recruiting and onboarding support pays off quickly here.
- $142,045 in federal fines on recordFines are tied to survey findings. Staffing documentation, training records and personnel files are frequently part of the review.
