Long-stay antianxiety / sleep medication rate is 28%. This category often shifts up when antipsychotic prescribing is restricted — different drug class, same effect on the resident. Worth asking the facility's prescribing rate for both classes side by side.

Pressure ulcer rate is 2.4% — under half the national median. Means the floor staff are repositioning residents on schedule and catching skin breakdown early. Hands-on attention shows up in this number.

Flagged by CMS data
Annual nursing staff turnover is 25% — well below the industry average of 50-60%. The same caregivers are coming back week after week, which means residents see familiar faces who know their preferences and history. Continuity of care is one of the biggest invisible quality signals.
