The verdict

ASH runs at 68% of its industry's injury rate - safer than the typical home health care workplace, earning a grade B.

ASH: 3.5 TCR = 68% of home health care BLS 5.2 · 5y Form 300A (see methodology below)

ASH safety composite

ASH scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 61% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 33%), blended into one 0-100 breakdown against same-industry peers. A missing measure drops out and redistributes its weight rather than deflating the score. This is a per-dimension breakdown, distinct from the single letter grade above it (which weights TCR alone against the BLS industry benchmark).

ASH has more employees than the home health care median and a lower injury rate than the industry's median TCR of 4.4. Workforce size and injury rate do not always move together within the same industry -- some of its smaller peers run higher rates than its larger ones, and vice versa.
