Reading the numbers for Aviata at North Fort Myers
Quality measures are excellent, staffing is not
The quality measures rating is in the top band, but registered nurse time is 27 minutes per resident per day against a Florida average of 44 minutes. Total nursing time of 3 hours 28 minutes also falls short of the state average of 3 hours 49 minutes.
Registered nurse turnover of 73.7%
Against a Florida average of 46%, that means close to three quarters of registered nursing staff left within the year. Total nursing turnover of 41.6% is around the state norm, so the churn is concentrated among senior clinical staff.
Inspections sit below average
Health inspections carry the most weight in the overall score and are rated Below average here. That is what holds the overall rating at Average despite the strong quality measures.
Same group as Aspire at Evans
CMS lists the chain as Aviata Health Group, which also operates Aspire at Evans in Fort Myers. Both buildings report low registered nurse hours and very high registered nurse turnover, so the pattern is consistent across the group.
