    NursingHomeIQ Analysis

    Summary

    Records for this facility reflect a one-star overall rating characterized by a high volume of health inspection findings, nursing care hours below the state average, and high staff turnover.

    Detailed Analysis

    The data indicates a significant downward trajectory in quality performance for Eagle Ridge Post Acute. Records show the overall rating dropped from four stars to one star over a 21-month period. This decline is mirrored in health inspection results, which rose from 14 findings in 2020 to 25 findings in the most recent survey. Included in these records are serious findings regarding resident protection from neglect and failure to accommodate dietary allergies, with one incident classified at a high level of severity (Level G).

    Staffing metrics show a total of 3.14 hours of nursing care per resident per day, which is below the Colorado state average of 3.70 hours. Registered nurse staffing specifically provided 0.42 hours per resident per day, roughly half the state average of 0.82 hours. The data also reflects a high nursing turnover rate of 61.5%, meaning more than six out of ten nursing staff members left the facility within a year. While the facility maintained a stable administrator and used contract staffing for 14.9% of nursing hours—within a range typical for the region—the weekend staffing levels show a 7.9% decrease compared to weekday levels. Furthermore, the facility carries 44 uncorrected health and fire safety findings according to current public records.

    Key Findings

    The facility received 25 health inspection findings in the most recent cycle, significantly exceeding the Colorado state average of 8.7 findings per cycle.

    Total nursing staff turnover is 61.5%, which is notably higher than the state average of 48.6%, suggesting frequent changes in the caregiving team.

    The facility was issued 4 federal penalties, including $58,386 in fines and a one-day denial of payment from Medicare.

    Performance Trends (24 months)

    This shows how the facility's federal ratings have changed over the past 24 months. Consistent high ratings suggest stable quality, while declining trends may warrant further investigation.

    Staffing Deep Dive

    Staffing depth is the strongest predictor of care quality. Facilities routinely cut staff on evenings and weekends — the shifts when falls happen and call lights go unanswered.
