The verdict

FHS runs at 58% of its industry's injury rate - safer than the typical home health care workplace, earning a grade B.

FHS: 3.0 TCR = 58% of home health care BLS 5.2 · 3y Form 300A (see methodology below)

FHS safety composite

FHS scores strongest on total case rate (tcr) (safer than 67% of same-industry peers) and weakest on dart rate (safer than 20%), 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).

FHS (70 employees, TCR 3.0) among 29 same-industry peers, split at the industry median of 72 employees and a TCR of 4.4

FHS 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.
