Management Report
Operations: Scavotto discussed the implications of the current DCRNC
operating position and briefly reviewed issues with “IPA-pending days” and
how they are being recorded; with Dietary personnel concerns; with the annual
financial audit; and with the implications of substituting “Depreciation &
Interest” for “Rent”. Scavotto presented analysis on resident days by
payer, revenues, and expenses. The trend is that occupancy is down from an ADC
of 184 to 180 and appears to be mirroring developments at other area facilities.
The goal is for DCRNC to improve its net revenue per day to $135-140. Expense
pressures are building, particularly with wages; accordingly, DCRNC will need to
bolster its operating margins in order to address recruitment and retention
difficulties in critical positions.
Executive Session (Personnel):
The Board went into Executive Session at 7:45 am on

Board emerged from Executive Session at 8:15 am on motion from Stromborg (second
Wilson, unanimous roll call vote) with no action taken.
Next Meeting Dates:
Wednesday, May 30, 2001, 7:00 a.m.
Respectfully submitted,
