F732: Post nurse staffing information every day
F732 is one of the federal requirements every Medicare and Medicaid certified nursing home must meet. CMS describes it as: Post nurse staffing information every day.
It sits in CMS's nursing and physician services category.
CMS Health Deficiencies file, data as of September 1, 2026. The files hold each home's last three standard inspections and three years of complaint visits.
How seriously inspectors rate it
Every citation gets a letter for how much harm inspectors found and how many residents it touched (how to read the letters). 17.4% of F732 citations came from a complaint visit rather than a routine inspection.
By letter: B 309, C 1,454, D 585, E 285, F 212.

Mini-Cassia Care Center, Burley, ID
Inspectors wrote, July 30, 2026, scope and severity DBased on observation, document review, and interview, the provider failed to ensure the daily posted nurse staffing information reflected the actual resident census and hours worked by registered nurses (RNs), licensed practical nurses (LPNs), certified medication aides (CMAs), and certified nursing assistants (CNAs) per shift, and was posted in a location visible and accessible to the residents, staff, and visitors.
Firesteel Healthcare Center, Mitchell, SD
Inspectors wrote, July 23, 2026, scope and severity DBased on observation, interview, and record review, the facility failed to update and post daily staffing information for three of six sample days (7/18/2026, 7/19/2026, and 7/20/2026).
