    NursingHomeIQ Analysis

    Summary

    This 280-bed Brooklyn facility holds a five-star federal rating and demonstrates high staff retention but relies on external contract agencies for over 43% of its nursing care hours.

    Detailed Analysis

    The data indicates that Linden Center for Nursing and Rehabilitation maintains high federal performance marks, including a five-star overall rating. The facility provides 3.87 total hours of nursing care per resident per day, which exceeds the New York state average of 3.65 hours. However, a significant portion of this care (43.8%) is provided by contract agency staff, which is notably higher than industry norms for care continuity. Registered nurse care hours are recorded at 0.68 per resident per day, aligning closely with the state average of 0.70.

    Records show a consistent trend of zero federal fines or payment denials over the recent reporting periods. Inspection history for the most recent cycle identified four health-related findings, including issues prioritized as 'Severity E' regarding food procurement and pest control programs. These findings are lower than the New York state average of 7.7 deficiencies per cycle. Stability in leadership is reflected by zero administrator departures in the last year, and the total nursing staff turnover of 26.2% suggests higher-than-average staff retention compared to the state's 40.5% average. Despite these stability markers, the 13.2% reduction in nursing hours during weekends indicates a moderate fluctuation in staffing levels between weekdays and weekend shifts.

    Key Findings

    The facility reports a high reliance on outside contract workers, with 43.8% of all nursing hours provided by agency staff rather than permanent employees.

    Weekend nursing coverage drops to 3.36 hours per resident per day, a 13.2% decrease from the weekday average of 3.87 hours.

    Federal records indicate a total nursing turnover rate of 26.2%, which is lower than the New York state average of 40.5%.

    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.
