Emerald Ridge safety composite

Emerald Ridge scores strongest on fatalities (safer than 51% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 29%), 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).

Narrower to North Carolina alone (the establishments it most directly competes with for workers and contracts): ranked #271 safest of 510 Nursing homes employers in North Carolina.

Emerald Ridge (81 employees, TCR 6.7) among 29 same-industry peers, split at the industry median of 106 employees and a TCR of 6.6
