Red flags
Medicare/Medicaid payments were denied
CMS refused payment for new admissions for a period — one of its strongest enforcement tools.
Total nurse staffing below 3.0 hours per resident-day
2.84 reported hours vs the 3.48 minimum CMS's own staffing study recommends.
64% of nursing staff left within a year
High turnover disrupts continuity of care; the national median is 45%.
