Our read on Avery Nursing Home/Noble Building

Avery Nursing Home runs on a church-affiliated nonprofit model with 194 certified beds, and its staff actually stick around, 24.6% turnover against a national average of 45.8% is a real strength, and the federal staffing rating reflects it. But the inspection record tells a different story: 43 deficiencies on file, five of them at harm or jeopardy level and two tied to abuse, with $87,416 in fines across four penalties. The most recent inspection was May 2025. Daily nurse staffing sits at 3.40 hours per resident, roughly 12% under the national figure, and weekends dip about 5% below the home's own weekday coverage. The quality measure rating lands mid-range.
