In January to March 2026, nursing staff hours per resident were 3.83 on weekdays and 3.07 on weekends, 20% lower on weekends (nationally, weekends ran 15% lower). Contract or agency staff worked 7.0% of nursing hours, against 5.3% nationally. Total nursing hours per resident went from 4.03 in April to June 2025 to 3.61 in January to March 2026.
