About Avir at North Richland Hills

Avir at North Richland Hills is a skilled nursing and long-term care facility in North Richland Hills, Texas, with a licensed capacity of 118 beds. The community serves both short-term rehabilitation and longer-term residents, including a locked dementia unit.

Family experiences at the facility are notably mixed. Some describe caring staff members who make residents feel welcome and supported, one family noted their mother with dementia "now considers it 'home'" after two years. Several families praised specific staff by name for their compassion and professionalism. However, other families report serious concerns: inconsistent housekeeping and hygiene standards, delayed responses to call buttons, insufficient therapy time despite admission expectations, inadequate meal modifications for residents on restricted diets, and administrative issues including visitor restrictions and alleged disregard for medical power of attorney documentation. Food quality is a recurring topic, with families noting portions that appear inadequate or poorly prepared for residents with limited dexterity.

The facility holds a 4.4-star Google rating based on 200 reviews. The spread between five-star and one-star ratings suggests the quality of care and attention varies significantly depending on staff assignment, unit, and circumstances. Families considering admission are advised, as one reviewer noted, that family involvement and monitoring are necessary at facilities of this kind.

I had the wonderful pleasure to work with Katie Luna today. Katie curated assistance for a patient and thoughtfully made all the arrangements to ensure the appointment went smoothly. Throughout the process, she was compassionate, understanding, and incredibly professional. It was clear that she truly cares about her patients and goes above and beyond to support them. Katie is kind, attentive, and a pleasure to work with. I would highly recommend her to anyone needing someone they can trust with a loved one needing skilled nursing/rehab services.

I would strongly caution anyone considering this facility for a loved one. After admission, my friend was isolated from visitors, and advocates were denied access without any court order or written authority provided. Her son’s valid Medical Power of Attorney was disregarded, and decisions were made based on an internal competency assessment rather than a judicial finding. On December 31, a visitor found her sitting in a visibly soiled diaper with a strong odor present. During a video call, she clearly recognized loved ones, expressed emotional distress, and said she wanted to come home, stating she believed she had been abandoned. She has since reported developing a urinary tract infection and difficulty using the bathroom, raising serious concerns about basic care and hygiene. The lack of transparency, inconsistent enforcement of visitation, and concerns about neglect were deeply troubling. I would urge families to ask very direct questions and closely monitor care before entrusting a loved one to this facility.
