    NursingHomeIQ Analysis

    Summary

    The Monarch at Brooklyn Rehab and Nursing Center shows high clinical quality ratings alongside staffing levels and nurse turnover rates that fall below New York state averages.

    Detailed Analysis

    The data indicates a facility with high performance in clinical quality measures but notable challenges in personnel stability. Records show the center maintains a five-star rating for quality measures, suggesting strong clinical outcomes for both long-stay and short-stay residents. However, staffing metrics reveal a registered nurse turnover rate of 54.8%, which is significantly higher than the state average of 40.5%. This high rate of staff departure suggests residents may experience frequent changes in the professional nursing team responsible for their care. Furthermore, the total nursing care of 2.85 hours per resident per day is 22% lower than the New York state average of 3.65 hours.

    Inspection history reflects a downward trend in findings, with a reduction from 10 issues in 2023 to five in 2025. Recent findings included concerns regarding accident prevention, accurate patient assessments, and maintaining a homelike environment. Regarding fire safety, 20 uncorrected findings exist, including issues with emergency lighting and sprinkler system maintenance. While the facility has not incurred any federal fines or payment denials in the current period, the staffing rating from federal regulators remains at two out of five stars, influenced by the identified staffing levels and turnover rates. Ownership is stable with no changes in the last three years, though the facility operates as part of a larger chain whose aggregate staffing ratings match this location's lower-than-average staffing metrics.

    Key Findings

    The facility reported 2.85 hours of total nursing care per resident per day, which is lower than the New York state average of 3.65 hours.

    Total nursing staff turnover is 41.5%, with registered nurse turnover reaching 54.8%, both of which exceed state averages for staff retention.

    Weekend nursing hours drop to 2.64 per resident per day, reflecting a 7% reduction in staffing levels compared to weekday averages.

    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.
