What the pattern says
Palmelle pattern checks · v1
Mixed — a strong record with one number that needs an answer.
Staffed like a place that cares. Nurses spend 2.3× the national RN time with each resident — the opposite of the churn you see in warehouse facilities.
No sedation pattern. Sleep-medication use is below national norms. Antipsychotic use is elevated, but paired with high staffing this reads clinical, not custodial — ask the medical director about their reduction program.
$10,117 in federal fines. 1 penalty in the last 36 months — the citation detail is in the record above.
These checks are computed the same way for every facility. Good patterns and bad ones both print.
