    NursingHomeIQ Analysis

    Summary

    Avamere Riverpark of Eugene maintains nursing care hours above the state average with no reliance on agency staff, but it faces high registered nurse turnover and an inspection profile characterized by 18 recent findings and two federal fines.

    Detailed Analysis

    The data indicates a facility with high staffing volume but significant challenges in inspection performance and staff retention. Records show total nursing care of 5.54 hours per resident per day, which is higher than the Oregon state average of 4.95 hours. However, there is a 13.3% decrease in nursing care hours during weekends (4.81 hours) compared to the weekday average, suggesting more limited coverage on Saturdays and Sundays. While the facility reported zero use of contract or agency staff, indicating all care is provided by direct employees, the turnover rate for registered nurses is 60%, which is higher than the state average of 53%. Highly stable administrator retention (zero departures) provides a point of management consistency.

    Inspection records reflect 18 findings in the most recent cycle, an increase from 15 in the prior period. These findings include a 'Severity G' citation, which represents actual harm to a resident, specifically regarding the failure to ensure an environment free from accident hazards and provide adequate supervision. Furthermore, the facility has recorded 50 total uncorrected health and fire safety findings. Quality measures for long-stay residents were rated below the state average, though short-stay measures performed closer to state benchmarks. Financially, the facility has been subject to $75,335 in federal fines over the last three years. Compared to other facilities in the Avamere chain, this location carries a lower overall rating and health inspection score but maintains higher staffing levels.

    Key Findings

    The facility recorded 18 inspection findings in the most recent cycle, which is significantly higher than the Oregon state average of 10.4.

    State records show two federal fines totaling $75,335 issued between March and June 2023.

    Registered nurse turnover is documented at 60%, exceeding both the facility's total nursing turnover of 42.2% and the state average of 53%.

    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.
