Trend analysis for The Palace Nursing & Rehab Center
Between 2022 and 2023, The Palace Nursing & Rehab Center's Total Case Rate worsened from 2.9 to 15.1 recordable injuries per 100 full-time workers, a 420% increase across 1 year of OSHA reporting.
The safest year on record was 2022, at a TCR of 2.9, while 2023 saw the highest rate, at 15.1, a spread of 12.2 points between the best and worst reporting years. That's a wide swing relative to the establishment's overall rate, worth checking the year-by-year table below for whether a single severe year is driving the average, rather than a sustained trend.
Summed across those 2 reporting years, The Palace Nursing & Rehab Center recorded 39 total injuries and illnesses, with no fatalities reported in any of those years. Readers comparing establishments should weigh the 2-year trend above alongside establishment size, since a larger workforce naturally accumulates more raw incidents even at a lower per-100-worker rate.

DART Rate, Transparent Calculation (2023)
DART (Days Away, Restricted, or Transferred) is computed by OSHA as incidents × 200,000 ÷ hours worked. The 200,000-hour denominator equals roughly 100 full-time workers, which lets establishments of very different sizes be compared directly.
12 DART incidents × 200,000 ÷ 436,027 hours worked = 5.50 DART
Methodology: 29 CFR 1904, OSHA Form 300A recordkeeping
