This year marks the 48^th annual year of publication. 917 nursing homes participated in the study and provided compensation data on 111,600+ employees, covering 47 management and 55 nonmanagement positions. 55.51% of study participants were not‑for‑profit facilities, while 44.49% were for-profit facilities. The results are reported according to revenue size, profit type, bed-size, region, state, and CBSA. The Report includes 19 fringe benefits, as well as shift differentials, actual/projected salary increases by department for 2025 to 2026, turnover/vacancy rates, and sign-on bonuses. Data in the study are effective as of March 2025.
