What the data says
CMS rates staffing here at 1 star — the bottom tier, shared by roughly 38% of Texas nursing homes. Each resident receives about 187 minutes of total nursing care per day, approximately 54 minutes less than at a 4-star-staffing facility in Texas. Of that, only 7 minutes come from a registered nurse, compared to 37 minutes at the 4-star threshold. Residents here also tend to need more hands-on care than at a typical facility — less mobile or more medically complex on average — so the same staffing hours are spread across greater need than the raw numbers alone convey.
One CMS fine has been issued, totaling $3,174. That figure sits well below Texas's median fine amount of $20,699 among facilities that have received any fine at all; about 30% of Texas nursing homes have no fines on record.

Questions to ask when you tour
Registered nurse coverage each day
CMS records show only 7 minutes of RN time per resident per day — ask how many hours a registered nurse is physically on-site and whether that coverage extends to evenings and weekends.
Staffing levels on weekends
Reported weekend nursing hours run lower than weekday figures; ask how the facility maintains care routines on Saturdays and Sundays when staffing typically drops.
How care plans address higher needs
Residents here tend to need more hands-on help than at a typical facility; ask how care plans are created, reviewed, and adjusted as a resident's condition changes.
Current bed availability and waitlist
With 80 residents in 94 licensed beds, the facility is running at about 85% capacity — ask whether a specific room or unit is available and what the current waitlist looks like.
Resident Council meeting schedule
CMS records a Resident Council but no Family Council; ask how family members are formally kept informed of concerns raised by residents in those meetings.
Relationship between Oakbend and the management LLC
The facility is licensed to Oakbend Medical Center but managed by The Lev At Winchester LLC — ask who holds day-to-day operational authority and how decisions escalate between the two entities.
