Working at Briarcrest Nursing Center

Briarcrest Nursing Center is a 135-bed nursing home in Bell Gardens, California. Over the 12-month period CMS measures, 41.2% of its registered nurses stopped working here. Across the 925 California nursing homes CMS reports, the average is 37.7%, so RN turnover here is higher than at 61% of nursing homes in the state.

Staffing tells the same kind of story. Residents here receive about 34 minutes of RN time per day, against 42 minutes across California. That is less RN coverage than most California nursing homes. CMS gives Briarcrest Nursing Center a staffing rating of 3 out of 5.

Turnover for the whole nursing team, which counts RNs, LPNs and nurse aides, is 42.9% here compared with 36.5% statewide.

What this means if you apply here

  • Higher RN turnover means you may be training alongside newer colleagues. Ask what the facility is doing to keep its nurses.
  • RN hours per resident run below the state average, so ask how assignments are built on your shift.

Questions to ask in your interview

  • How many residents does each RN cover on the shift I would work?
  • How is weekend RN coverage handled?
  • How many RNs left in the last year, and what has changed since?
