Our read on Aviata At Shoal Creek

Aviata At Shoal Creek runs 120 beds in Crestview under for-profit LLC ownership, and the staffing numbers are the part I'd want you to sit with. Total nurse coverage sits at 3.37 hours per resident day, roughly 13% under the national average, and weekends drop about 9% below what the home itself staffs on weekdays. Turnover is 54.5%, nearly nine points above the national figure, so the aides and nurses in the building keep changing. The inspection record is more settled: 14 deficiencies on file, including four at harm or jeopardy level and one tied to abuse, though the most recent look was January 2026. Quality measures score well. Ask about weekend coverage and who's actually on the floor.
