What the pattern says
Palmelle pattern checks · v1Warehouse warning signs — read the findings below before touring.
- Staffing below the line. Residents get 2 hr 53 min of nursing time a day against a national norm of 3 hr 37 min — thin staffing is the first warehouse warning sign.
- The falls number is the outlier: 2× the national rate. 3.3% of long-stay residents had a fall with major injury vs 1.6% nationally. Combined with the staffing picture, ask hard questions: one bad cluster, a reporting artifact, or a real problem.
- $22,048 in federal fines. 1 penalty in the last 36 months — the citation detail is in the record above.
