FTE (as of 6/29)9.0 FTE hired to start 7/7 (included in 23.1 fill
rate); expected to be productive 10/5/2025. , vacancies are being
mitigated by contracted labor. To eliminate contract labor needs
for both RNs, 10.8 vacant budgeted positions are posted. In the
interim while hiring and training is in process, gaps are mitigated
with staff working over scheduled and incentivized hours, floats
are being utilized from other departments, and leadership is pulled
into staffing. Nursing Supervisors are also capping census given
most recent staffing constraints, limiting the number of R1 s
staffed beds and capacity. Assessment: Per Strata, PI YTD is 88%,
and PP17 is 83%. Investigation has revealed the following: As
stated above, Nursing Supervisors have capped census based on
staffing limitations. The ADC for R1 for PP17 was 18.2 (max 36
beds). This is down from 24.1 in PP14 due to significant staffing
restrictions.Of the 14 days the last PP, 2 were within targeted
budgeted productive WHPUOS identified by the FY 25 staffing grid.
For a census of 18, projected WHPUOS is 12.27, WHPUOS in Strata for
PP 17 is 12.25. Ongoing work to improve productivity includes the
following: Reducing cancelled meal deductionsReducing early
clock-ins and late clock outsWorking with Nursing Supervisors to
limit the number of staffed, unoccupied beds to 4 per shiftWorking

FTE. As in interim solution until hiring and onboarding is
