High-Staffing Nursing Homes in New Mexico
12 of 67 Medicare-certified nursing homes in New Mexico meet or exceed the CMS minimum of 4.1 total nurse hours per resident per day. Staffing levels are the strongest predictor of care quality.
Why staffing matters: CMS research shows facilities in the bottom quartile for staffing have 22% higher rates of serious deficiency citations. Higher nurse hours mean residents receive more attention, faster response to health changes, and better outcomes.
