What the pattern says
Palmelle pattern checks · v1
Warehouse warning signs — read the findings below before touring.
Staffing below the line. Residents get 3 hr of nursing time a day against a national norm of 3 hr 37 min — thin staffing is the first warehouse warning sign.
A sedation pattern. Antipsychotic use (51%) and sleep-medication use (27%) are BOTH far above national norms — the pattern associated with medicating residents instead of staffing for them.
Clean accountability record. There are no fines, flags, or abuse findings on the federal record.
These checks are computed the same way for every facility. Good patterns and bad ones both print.
