The verdict
BVF runs at 50% of its industry's injury rate - far safer than the typical home health care workplace, earning a grade A.
BVF: 2.6 TCR = 50% of home health care BLS 5.2 · 5y Form 300A (see methodology below)
BVF safety composite
BVF scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 73% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 16%), 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).

Where BVF falls in its industry
3,635 home health care establishmentsSafer than 73% of graded establishments in this industry, whose median TCR is 4.4.
Narrower to Maryland alone (the establishments it most directly competes with for workers and contracts): ranked #9 safest of 46 home health care employers in Maryland.
BVF has fewer 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.
