Our read on Bria Of River Oaks

Bria Of River Oaks runs 309 beds in Burnham, and the number that should give you pause is 2.86 nursing hours per resident per day, roughly a quarter below the national average, with weekends thinner still. Turnover sits at 35.6%, which is actually better than average, so the problem isn't a churning workforce; it's that there don't appear to be enough hands scheduled. The inspection record is heavy: 38 deficiencies, 13 of them at harm or jeopardy level, seven tied to abuse, and eight fines totaling $270,248. Its last inspection was July 2024. For-profit corporate ownership. Ask about weekend coverage and the abuse plan before you tour.
