    NursingHomeIQ Analysis

    Summary

    The facility maintains nursing staffing hours significantly above state averages, yet it currently carries a 1-star health inspection rating due to multiple federal fines and a history of serious regulatory findings involving resident safety.

    Detailed Analysis

    The data indicates a facility with high staffing levels but significant regulatory challenges. Records show a total nursing care ratio of 7.23 hours per resident per day, which significantly exceeds both the state average of 3.86 hours and the chain average. This includes 2.15 hours of registered nurse care daily, compared to the state average of 0.63 hours. However, the facility's health inspection rating has declined from a 2-star to a 1-star over the last 21 months. Specifically, a 2024 inspection documented a 'Severity J' finding, which represents an immediate jeopardy situation related to resident protection from abuse or neglect.

    The staffing profile reveals moderate stability with a total nursing staff turnover rate of 35.7%, which is lower than the South Carolina state average of 47%. While the facility maintains high staffing ratios, there is a 23.4% reduction in nursing care hours during weekends compared to weekdays. Furthermore, contract or agency staffing remains elevated; 21.2% of all nursing care is provided by non-permanent staff, with 24.3% of certified nursing assistant care coming from agency contracts. Compared to other facilities in the South Carolina Department of Mental Health chain, this facility holds a lower health inspection rating (1-star vs. chain average of 3-star). Financial penalties have also increased, with four distinct fines recorded in the most recent reporting period totaling over $67,000.

    Key Findings

    Public records document a high-level inspection finding (Severity J) involving the failure to protect a resident from abuse or neglect as of March 2024.

    The facility reported 7.23 total hours of nursing care per resident per day, which is nearly double the South Carolina state average of 3.86 hours.

    Records show four federal fines totaling $67,222 issued between April 2023 and April 2025, with the largest single fine occurring in 2025.

    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.
