Avante At Ormond Beach, Inc

Avante At Ormond Beach holds an overall 4-star rating, which means it ranks above average compared to nursing homes nationally. That composite score is built from three separate ratings, and they tell a more nuanced story when you look at them individually. The health inspection rating sits at 3 stars, meaning the facility lands right around average when it comes to the number and seriousness of citations found during state inspections. Nothing alarming, but not a standout record either. The staffing rating is the weakest piece at 2 stars, which signals that nurses are spending fewer hours per resident than what you'd typically see at comparable facilities. For families, that's worth paying attention to, since staffing levels can directly affect how quickly your loved one gets help, how closely they're monitored, and how much individualized attention they receive day to day.

On the brightest end, the quality measures rating is a perfect 5 stars, reflecting that residents at this facility show much better-than-average outcomes across 15 clinical and physical health indicators, things like fall rates, pressure wounds, and changes in mobility or pain. That's a meaningful signal that despite the staffing numbers, the care being delivered is producing strong real-world results for residents. When you weigh everything together, Avante At Ormond Beach appears to be a facility that performs well where it counts most for resident wellbeing, though it's reasonable to ask the staff directly about care ratios and how they manage coverage to get a fuller picture before making your decision.

Staffing levels at Avante At Ormond Beach are a bit below what you'd typically see at other Florida nursing homes, and that's worth understanding in practical terms. On an average day, residents here receive about 3.64 total nurse hours of care, compared to the Florida average of 3.87 hours. That gap might sound small on paper, but across an entire day it can affect how quickly a nurse or aide responds to a call, how much time staff have for things like repositioning residents to prevent bedsores, or just checking in to make sure someone is comfortable. The bigger difference shows up with registered nurses specifically. At 0.31 RN hours per resident per day versus the state average of 0.52, residents here have less access to the higher level of clinical oversight that RNs provide compared to many other facilities. This doesn't necessarily mean care is poor, but families should ask the facility directly how they manage staffing during nights, weekends, and high-demand periods, since those are usually the times when leaner staffing is felt the most.

Avante at Ormond Beach has a middle-of-the-road health inspection rating of 3 out of 5 stars, which suggests inspectors have found some areas that needed attention over time, though nothing that stands out as severely problematic. On the penalty side, the news is straightforward and reassuring: this facility has no government penalties on record and has never been fined. That means regulators have not taken formal enforcement action against them, which is a positive sign for families weighing their options. A 3-star inspection rating is worth keeping in mind as you visit and ask questions, but the clean penalty record does indicate the facility has stayed out of serious regulatory trouble.
