What to ask about before you visit

These are findings in the public CMS record for this home. They are not our opinion, each one comes straight from a federal inspection or enforcement file.

  • $102,752 in federal fines

    CMS has fined this facility across 3 penalty action(s).

  • Nursing staff turnover of 82%

Our read on Avir At San Augustine

Avir At San Augustine runs on thin staffing: 3.54 nurse hours per resident day, about 8% under the national average, and weekends drop roughly 7% below its own weekday levels. That's a real problem when turnover hits 82%, nearly double the national 45.8%, because new hires cycle through faster than they can learn residents' needs. The inspection history backs this up: 20 deficiencies on the current record, including 3 at harm or jeopardy level and 3 tied to abuse, with $102,752 in fines across three penalties. A 4/5 inspection rating and recent May 2026 survey suggest the home can pass a walkthrough, but a 1/5 staffing score and 2/5 quality measures tell you what day-to-day care actually looks like.
