Viera Del Mar runs about 3.63 nurse hours per resident day, roughly 6% under the national average, and weekend coverage drops another 10% below its own weekday level. That thin margin shows up in turnover: 66.9% of staff leave each year, against a national rate near 46%. The inspection record is where the real weight sits, 44 deficiencies, eight serious enough to cause harm or jeopardy, four tied to abuse, and three fines totaling $133,088. Quality measures score well, but a 1-out-of-5 inspection rating and a staffing level below average describe a building where the daily care depends heavily on a workforce that keeps changing.
