Landing card sample. Care Home Staffing Model The Care Home Staffing Model (CHSM) is an Excel-based tool which summarises the functional needs (or dependency) of individual residents based on the care home Indicator of Relative Need or ioRN measure.

This is then used to show how resident dependency and care hours for the home compare against an equivalent care home. Used over time, the tool can track how individual resident characteristics change, as well as the trends for the home. This information is intended to help the care home manager and staff to deliver good quality care for individual residents and to support decisions on the overall staffing of the home. The model was developed in partnership between ISD Scotland, The Scottish Government, the Care Commission and COSLA.
