Skilled Nursing Facilities: The Labor Crisis
Skilled Nursing Facilities (SNFs) are currently caught between rising acuity and tightening labor markets. For a typical 100-bed facility, maintaining the necessary clinical and administrative presence is an immense financial burden.
Manual facilities typically require one dedicated manager and 2.5 coordinators to handle the "logistical jigsaw puzzle" of resident movement. At median Arizona wages, this results in an annual administrative labor cost of approximately $221,610. This "coordination tax" forces staff to spend an average of 42 minutes per transfer on manual tasks—diverting hundreds of hours monthly away from direct resident care and regulatory compliance.
