Assisted living facility minimum staffing requirements by US state — how many staff must be on duty, and what that guarantees

State-by-state comparison of minimum staffing requirements for assisted living facilities (distinct from nursing homes/skilled nursing facilities, which run under a separate federal-plus-state regime). Assisted living regulation is entirely state-run — there is no federal minimum — and states take genuinely different regulatory approaches, not just different numbers on the same form: North Carolina sets a headcount rule that scales by facility census (13-20 residents requires an administrator or manager within 500 feet plus at least one awake staff member per shift, with specific carve-outs for when housekeeping duties may or may not be combined with care duties); Georgia sets a flat always-present rule (at least two trained staff present at all times any resident is present, with at least one per occupied floor), a 1:15 waking / 1:20 non-waking awake direct-care ratio, banded on-site nurse hours, and separate continuing-education hour requirements (24 hours in year one, 16 hours annually after); Florida runs a facility-size-banded staff-hours-per-week table (total weekly staff hours required scale with combined resident/day-care/respite census, with an incremental add-on above 95); Pennsylvania sets hours per resident per day rather than a facility total (1 hour for a mobile resident, 2 hours for a resident with mobility needs, at least 75% of it in waking hours); California's only real number is at night, banded by census from 'a qualified person on call on the premises' under 16 residents up to one extra awake staff member per further 100; Texas splits the night rule by licence type rather than size (Type B night staff must be awake whatever the bed count, Type A only in a large facility); and Virginia, Washington and Minnesota state no number at all, requiring staffing 'sufficient' or 'adequate' against each resident's own assessment or service agreement, with a single awake or available responder as the floor. One record per distinct rule, so a facility of a given size can be looked up directly. Answers 'how many caregivers are legally required to be on duty at my parent's assisted living facility', and 'what's the difference between assisted living staffing rules and nursing home staffing rules'.
Provenance — what every record carries
Every record carries source (the URL the value was read from) and
source_quote (a verbatim quote from that page stating it). A value you
cannot check against its page is indistinguishable from an invented one;
these can all be checked. Each record is also individually addressable on
the canonical site at its url.
