Nurse staffing at Vermont nursing homes

31 nursing homes in Vermont report staffing to Medicare. The typical home reports 4.11 nursing hours per resident per day, including 0.74 hours from registered nurses.

CMS data as of August 1, 2026. Nursing homes only; assisted living is not covered by Medicare ratings. Homes averaging under 20 residents a day, such as short-stay hospital units, are left out because their numbers swing widely.

Fewest reported nursing hours in Vermont

A low figure is a reason to ask about staffing on nights and weekends. It does not by itself show poor care.
