CMS has turned on the abuse icon. The September 2026 Technical Users' Guide applies that icon for abuse tags F600, F602, or F603: a citation at scope and severity G or higher on the most recent standard survey or on a complaint or focused infection-control survey in the past 12 months, or a repeat citation at D or higher across the recent windows described in the guide. While the icon is on, the health inspection rating is capped at two stars.
Reported hours per resident per day come from the Payroll-Based Journal figures in the Provider Information file. Case-mix and adjusted hours account for how much care CMS expects given the residents’ needs. State and U.S. figures are averages from the same release.
Adjusted total nurse hours: 3.46. Adjusted RN hours: 0.67. Case-mix total: 3.82. Case-mix index: 1.398.
Total nursing staff turnover: 57.5%. RN turnover: 57.1%. Administrators who left: 1.
