Bria of Trinity Village

While we graded this facility incredibly poorly overall, it received a fairly respectable nursing grade this year. We gave it a grade of B- in that category. We analyzed the qualifications of nurses working for the nursing home, as well as the quantity of time the nurses were with residents, in calculating our score in this area. This facility averages 0 hours of nursing care per patient on a daily basis, which is a very low figure. Lastly, nursing grades also factor in quality-based measures, such as avoiding major falls. Despite not having the most impressive total nursing hours, this facility performed admirably in the area of preventing major falls. This is usually an indicator that a nursing home has sufficient quality controls in place. Some falls can be avoided if a facility provides enough nurses aids to assist its patients.

Incredibly, we awarded this nursing home a B- for its short-term care grade, which is not a bad grade. Short-term care grades are based in part on the nursing home's quantity of skilled highly skilled professionals. This includes a wide range of nursing services, ranging from registered nurses to physical and respiratory therapists, as well as other types of therapy. In this place's case, we were surprised to learn that it actually provides less registered nurse and physical therapist hours per resident than the typical facility. The last measure we assessed in this area is the percentage of residents who were able to return home from the nursing home. We found that just 5.4 percent of this nursing home's patients returned home. This figure was below average.

In our next category, we gave this facility an F in the category of long-term care. Nursing homes that don't score well in this category often don't provide as much nursing care and also may be lagging in some of the areas of routine healthcare services we looked at. In addition to assessing the amount of care provided by nurses aids and other staff, we analyzed the number of residents vaccinated for pneumonia. Candidly, we were a bit worried that this facility vaccinated a relatively low 70.76271 percent of its residents. To our surprise, this place was actually decent at keeping its patients out of the hospital. Indeed, it had only 0.03 hospitalizations per 1,000 long-term resident days. This is its best feature in this category.

In our final category of inspections, this facility received an F here. Since this information is compiled by government inspectors, we heavily weight poor results in this category. When a facility has this poor of an inspection score, you should look for severe deficiencies on its inspection report. Severe deficiencies indicate a threat to resident safety. This particular facility was assessed 5 deficiencies by CMS. The only positive thing we can say is that none of the deficiencies were in the categories that indicate that they posed a risk to resident safety or health. Finally, CMS flagged this nursing home for possible abuse or neglect. This is not what you want to see. We advise you to direct your search elsewhere.
