Score Breakdown
What the numbers mean
AVALON CARE CENTER-PASCO LLC scored 57 out of 100 — 8 points below the state average of 65.
📋 Inspections: 82 citations over the last 36 months — 39 more than the state average (43). 3 were rated serious (G+) — inspectors found actual or potential harm to residents. 28 findings recurred across inspection cycles — indicating a problem that was not fixed.
👥 Staffing: Staffing is within an acceptable range but not among the highest-performing facilities. Ask about nurse coverage on evenings, nights, and weekends when you visit.
⚠️ Penalties & enforcement: CMS has recorded 1 enforcement action totaling $63,388 against this facility. Penalties are only issued after a facility fails two levels of regulatory review — meaning this is a serious escalation beyond a standard citation. Ask for a written explanation of every fine and what corrective actions were taken.
💬 Complaints: Some complaint-driven inspections have occurred. These are unannounced visits triggered by formal concerns from residents, families, or staff. Ask the facility how they handle resident grievances.
⚠️ Resident quality outcomes: Some quality measures are below national benchmarks. Areas like fall prevention, pain management, or medication use may warrant closer attention.

Top concern areas
⚖ Penalties & Enforcement
Federal civil monetary penalties (CMPs) are only issued after a facility has failed two levels of regulatory review — meaning problems were found on inspection and the facility could not rebut the findings. This is a serious escalation beyond a standard citation.
⚠ Each enforcement action required CMS to make a separate non-compliance determination — meaning this facility failed two levels of regulatory review before any fine was issued. Ask management specifically what violations triggered these fines and what corrective steps were taken.
📅 Per-action enforcement records (date, fine amount, and penalty type for each individual action) are sourced from a separate CMS enforcement dataset and will be added in a future data update.
Resident Wellbeing — Key Indicators
These are the measures families ask about most. They come from CMS clinical assessments of every resident — not just inspection reports. Stars (★) count toward the official CMS quality star rating.
