# Atlas Commons research objects — nursing-home safety for El Paso Rehabilitation and Health Care Center

El Paso Rehabilitation and Health Care Center (EL PASO, IL) from CMS Nursing Home Care Compare, with each figure's status labeled: the CMS Five-Star ratings (overall/health-inspection/staffing/QM) are a model CMS computes, not a direct measurement; the reported nurse-staffing hours, abuse / Special-Focus flags, and identity are measured, published facts; the boundary note is context — CMS data, not a recommendation for your relative.

## Claims

### El Paso Rehabilitation and Health Care Center reports 2.80964 total nurse staffing hours per resident per day

**RECORDED.** El Paso Rehabilitation and Health Care Center reports 2.80964 total nurse staffing hours per resident per day (RN 0.29584, nurse aide 1.9702), from payroll-based journal (PBJ) data — a MEASURED, payroll-auditable record, not a rating. For context, expert/CMS guidance points to ~4.1 total nurse hours/resident/day as a staffing adequacy benchmark.

Source: CMS Nursing Home Care Compare — PBJ payroll-based staffing — https://www.medicare.gov/care-compare/
Falsifier: A RECORD of measured/reported events (occurred=true) from CMS Nursing Home Care Compare — PBJ payroll-based staffing; superseded when CMS Nursing Home Care Compare — PBJ payroll-based staffing publishes its next release.

### El Paso Rehabilitation and Health Care Center carries the CMS abuse icon (a recent abuse/neglect citation)

**RECORDED.** CMS flags El Paso Rehabilitation and Health Care Center with the abuse icon — it was cited for abuse, neglect, or exploitation where a resident was harmed (or potentially harmed) on its most recent inspections. A recorded enforcement fact.

Falsifier: A RECORD of measured/reported events (occurred=true) from CMS Nursing Home Care Compare; superseded when CMS Nursing Home Care Compare publishes its next release.

### El Paso Rehabilitation and Health Care Center has CMS Special Focus status: SFF

**RECORDED.** CMS designates El Paso Rehabilitation and Health Care Center as a Special Focus Facility (or candidate) — a persistently low-performing nursing home subject to heightened oversight. A recorded CMS designation.

Falsifier: A RECORD of measured/reported events (occurred=true) from CMS Nursing Home Care Compare; superseded when CMS Nursing Home Care Compare publishes its next release.

### What this is — and is NOT — for El Paso Rehabilitation and Health Care Center (the epistemic boundary)

**INTERPRETATION.** Every figure here is published CMS Nursing Home Care Compare data, the same facts CMS shows the public. The star ratings are CMS's MODEL; the staffing hours are a MEASURED record. This page INFORMS and COMPARES — it does NOT recommend whether El Paso Rehabilitation and Health Care Center is right for your specific relative's needs, and a high or low rating is not a guarantee. Visit in person, ask about recent inspections, and contact your state Long-Term Care Ombudsman. Verify everything at medicare.gov/care-compare.

Source: Care Atlas framing (over the CMS Care Compare facts above) — https://care-atlas.ryanjhunter.workers.dev/
Falsifier: occurred=FALSE (a framing, not an event) and adjudged=FALSE (the atlas's reading, not a CMS verdict) — the LOWEST-warrant claim here. The CMS ratings (modeled) and staffing hours (recorded) above are CMS's own; this is the only interpretation, and the four-status says so.

Every claim above carries a four-status warrant (RECORDED / MODELED / DERIVED / INTERPRETATION) and a named source you can re-fetch — this is a research object, not a flat fact. Structured: `https://care-atlas.ryanjhunter.workers.dev/care/nursing-homes/146097.jsonld`
