These current public-data fields deserve follow-up with the facility and the official Medicare record. They are not a clinical risk score or a substitute for an in-person assessment.
This facility has areas of concern that warrant careful consideration. Registered Nurse hours are 32% of the EveryPlace reference benchmark; ask how RN coverage is allocated across shifts. The latest standard survey recorded 15 findings, above the TX average of 9.1. We recommend asking the administrator directly: "How are you addressing recent staffing shortfalls?" These are not reasons to panic, but they are reasons to ask tough questions and visit in person.
AVIR AT THE MEADOW receives praise for its friendly, professional staff and engaging community activities like carnival days and outings. However, families should be extremely cautious due to serious, recurring reports of medical neglect, including severe bed sores, medication errors, and inadequate response to call lights. There are also frequent complaints regarding facility cleanliness, specifically concerning unpleasant odors and pest issues.

Key Review Excerpts
“The staff is helpful and friendly. The receptionist Bill Lindsey is particularly instrumental in helping family members. He knows the patients well and keeps family informed of any needs.”
“I would like to give Cameron credit today for his kindness to bring an extra blanket for Loi Ly. Loi was trembling and his body jumped due to $coldness. After I asked for a blanket, Camron went to the laundry room and brought back one.”
“My husband was a resident here during COVID when family wasn't allowed to visit. By the time we got him moved closer to home he had bed sores you could put your fist in and they were moving up his spine and were deemed incurable.”
Both RN and total nursing hours are below the EveryPlace reference benchmarks. Ask the facility how it staffs each shift for current resident needs.
Reference benchmarks (0.75 RN and 4.1 total nursing hours per resident/day) are comparison targets, not current federal minimum requirements.

Key recurring issues include medication errors, accident hazards, respiratory care problems, and failures to report suspected abuse or neglect properly. While the facility reports correcting each violation, the pattern of repeated complaints in similar care areas—particularly medication safety appearing across surveys from 2023 to 2025—suggests ongoing challenges in maintaining consistent quality standards.

Original nursing home datasets
EveryPlace is a research directory. Facility information is compiled from public sources — Medicare.gov, state licensing portals, Google Places, and publicly available street-level imagery. Some summaries, interpretations, suggested questions, and pricing research are AI-generated or AI-assisted and may contain errors or omit important context. Listings do not constitute endorsement, recommendation, or advertisement, and we do not accept payment for placement. Families should verify all details directly with the facility and the original sources linked above before making any care decisions. See our Research Policy for our editorial standards, correction process, and image-removal policy.
These are the 6 closest facilities in our data within 10 miles. Proximity does not mean they provide the same care type or have stronger quality signals, so compare each profile and verify services directly.
