What the pattern says

Palmelle pattern checks · v1

Mixed — worth touring with these questions in hand.

  • The falls number is the outlier: 2× the national rate. 3.8% 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.
  • $22,562 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.
