Evidence statusAudited filingWorkforce: 2024Capacity: 2025
What the available records supportA reviewed 2024 nursing snapshot and 2025 capacity record are available. A defensible recent demand trend is not.

What changed?

These are reported hospital-wide measures. The year and comparison period sit beside each number.

Are we busier?Insufficient comparable quarterly data for a meaningful recent demand answer.
UnknownNo reviewed recent same-quarter demand comparison
Did available capacity change?The displayed staffed and licensed counts have a reporting-scope conflict, so no capacity percentage is shown.
Scope conflictReported staffed share of licensed beds · 2025

The reporting scopes conflict, so the percentage is withheld until the records are reconciled.

What did the nursing record show?24.4 RN hours per patient day.
