Staffing Rating
Aviata At Brentwood holds an overall 2-star rating from CMS, which means it falls below average compared to other nursing homes nationwide. That overall score is built from three separate ratings, and here all three land in the same place. The health inspection rating of 2 stars reflects that state inspectors found a higher-than-average number of citations or more serious violations during their visits, which can point to concerns about safety protocols and care practices. The staffing rating of 2 stars means nurses are spending fewer hours with residents than you'd typically see at a comparable facility, which can affect how quickly staff respond to needs and how closely residents are monitored day to day. The quality measures rating of 2 stars is based on 15 clinical indicators, things like rates of falls, pressure wounds, infections, and other health outcomes, and scoring below average here suggests residents may be experiencing more of these issues than at higher-rated homes.
For families considering Aviata At Brentwood, the consistency of below-average scores across all three categories is worth taking seriously. No single low score is being offset by a stronger area elsewhere. That doesn't automatically mean the facility is the wrong choice for your loved one, but it does mean you'll want to ask pointed questions during a tour, request recent inspection reports, and pay close attention to how staff interact with residents when you visit.

Questions to ask when visiting
1. How many residents does each certified nursing aide care for during the day shift, and does that number change at night or on weekends?
2. How long have most of your nurses and aides been working here, and what does your staff turnover look like over the past year?
3. If my loved one has a concern or feels unsafe, what exactly happens next and who is responsible for following up with our family?
4. Can you walk me through what a typical weekday looks like for a resident who doesn't have many scheduled therapies or appointments?
5. How many falls or serious injuries occurred among residents in the past six months, and what changes did the facility make in response?
6. When was your last state inspection, what did surveyors flag, and what has the facility done to correct those findings?

About CMS Star Ratings
CMS assigns 1–5 star ratings to Medicare and Medicaid-certified nursing homes based on three domains: health inspections, staffing levels, and quality measures. The overall rating is a weighted composite.
A 5-star overall rating does not guarantee excellence in every domain — inspect each sub-rating independently. Data is updated quarterly.
