In January to March 2026, nursing staff hours per resident were 3.62 on weekdays and 3.01 on weekends, 17% lower on weekends (nationally, weekends ran 15% lower). Contract or agency staff worked 2.1% of nursing hours, against 5.3% nationally. Total nursing hours per resident went from 3.33 in April to June 2025 to 3.44 in January to March 2026.
