Summary

Larchwood Inn is a 130-bed for-profit facility with a one-star federal rating, characterized by a recent increase in health inspection findings, documented resident harm, and the presence of a federal abuse icon.

Detailed Analysis

Public records for Larchwood Inn indicate significant shifts in quality and oversight metrics. The facility currently holds a one-out-of-five star overall rating from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services. Data shows the health inspection rating remained at two stars, while the staffing rating declined from four stars to one star over a two-year period. In the most recent inspection cycle, regulators documented 21 health inspection findings, a substantial increase from the 6 findings recorded in the previous cycle. This includes four 'Level G' findings, which indicate that actual harm was caused to residents. Furthermore, the presence of a federal 'abuse icon' on the facility profile signifies documented instances where residents were not protected from neglect or physical harm.

Staffing data reveals that while total nursing hours began at 4.29 hours of nursing care per resident per day, they have decreased to 3.97 hours. Contract staffing accounts for 6.6% of total nursing care, which is within the range typically associated with staffing stability, yet quality measures for long-stay residents remain at the lowest possible rating of one star. Comparison with state averages shows the facility has more than double the typical number of health inspection findings (21 versus the Colorado average of 8.7). Additionally, fire safety records show 20 uncorrected findings, including issues with automatic sprinkler system maintenance and electrical wiring. Ownership has remained stable under a for-profit corporation, but the facility's trajectory shows a downward trend in both federal quality ratings and regulator-documented findings.
