AVIATA AT COUNTRYSIDE

Aviata At Countryside holds an overall 3-star rating from CMS, which means it falls in the average range compared to nursing homes across the country. That overall score is essentially a snapshot built from three separate ratings, each measuring something different about how a facility operates. The health inspection rating, also 3 stars, reflects the findings from state inspections - specifically how many citations the facility received and how serious they were. Average here means the inspection results are in line with most facilities, but families should still ask to see the actual inspection reports to understand the details behind that score. The staffing rating comes in at 4 stars, which is a good sign - it means residents are getting more nurse time relative to their needs than you'd see at a typical facility. That can translate to more attentive daily care and faster responses when a resident needs help. The quality measures rating is also 4 stars, meaning the facility performs above average on 15 clinical health outcomes tracked by CMS, things like how well residents maintain their mobility, manage pain, or avoid preventable hospitalizations. The overall 3-star score lands lower than the individual staffing and quality ratings might suggest, largely because the health inspection rating carries significant weight in how CMS calculates the composite. So while the care being delivered day-to-day looks solid based on staffing levels and health outcomes, the inspection history brings the overall number back to average. For families, that combination is worth noting - the hands-on care indicators are encouraging, but it is reasonable to ask the facility directly about any past citations and what steps have been taken to address them.
