    • Payroll Based Journal Daily Nurse Staffing

    Metadata Updated: April 25, 2024

    The Payroll Based Journal (PBJ) Nurse Staffing and Non-Nurse Staffing datasets provide information submitted by nursing homes including rehabilitation services on a quarterly basis. The View Data link above includes the hours staff are paid to work each day, for each facility, aggregated by staff reporting category.  Examples of reporting categories include Director of Nursing, Administrative Registered Nurses, Registered Nursing, Administrative Licensed Practice Nurses, Licensed Practice Nurses, Certified Nurse Aides, Certified Medication Aides, and Nurse Aides in Training. There are also other non-nurse staff categories provided in the data such as Respiratory Therapist, Occupational Therapist, and Social Worker. The datasets also include a facility’s daily census calculated using the Minimum Data Set (MDS) submission. The Payroll Based Journal (PBJ) Employee Detail Nursing Home Staffing datasets and technical information have been moved to a new location.

    Note: This full dataset contains more records than most spreadsheet programs can handle, which will result in an incomplete load of data. Use of a database or statistical software is required.
