Our read on Avir At El Paso

Avir At El Paso runs on 3.18 nurse hours per resident day, about 18% under the national average, and weekend coverage drops roughly 13% below its own weekday level. The inspection record is the real problem: 98 deficiencies, including 5 at harm or jeopardy level and 8 abuse-related, plus three fines totaling $192,681. Staff turnover sits at 46.8%, slightly above the national figure. Resident outcome measures score well, but a 1-out-of-5 inspection rating and 2-out-of-5 for staffing tell you where the trouble lives. It's a for-profit limited liability company, and the last inspection was March 2025.
