How do you calculate par level in nursing home?

To calculate the par level in a nursing home, first assess the average usage of supplies over a specific period, typically a month. Next, consider factors such as the number of residents, seasonal variations, and any upcoming events or changes in care needs that might affect supply usage. Finally, determine the minimum quantity of each item that should be on hand to ensure that you can meet residents' needs without running out or overstocking. This calculated amount becomes the par level for each supply item.
