How does the platform run hours-per-resident-day variance every morning?
HPRD is the operating metric that ties labor to acuity. Most operators report it monthly, in arrears, by community — long after the variance could have been corrected.
Detail
HPRD computes nightly per community, per unit, per shift, with actual hours, scheduled hours, budgeted hours, and acuity-adjusted target side by side. Variance above tolerance triggers a morning task for the executive director and DON. Trend views show whether variance is structural (template wrong) or operational (call-outs, overtime, agency).
HPRD variance closes from ±15% to inside ±5% within a quarter, and labor cost per occupied bed becomes a number leaders can defend at the board level.
