CMS updated its nursing home staffing rating system July 7 to include four new measures.
In addition to existing measures of registered nurse and total nurse hours per resident per day, the new staffing rating methodology will include:
- Total nurse staffing hours per resident per day on weekends.
- Total nurse staff turnover within a given year.
- Registered nurse turnover within a given year.
- Number of administrators who have left the nursing home within a given year.
