Federal inspection record
Immediate-jeopardy citations (CMS scope/severity J–L) are the most serious category federal inspectors issue — meaning a deficiency placed residents in immediate risk of serious harm. Ask the facility for the corrective-action plan filed with CMS, and consider contacting your state long-term care ombudsman for context.

What the data says
CMS rates staffing here 1 star. Each resident receives about 180 minutes of nursing care per day — roughly 61 minutes less than at a 4-star-staffing facility in Texas, a threshold met by about 38% of Texas nursing homes. Residents here require more hands-on care than at a typical facility — less mobile or more medically complex on average — so those 180 minutes stretch thinner than the raw number suggests. RN coverage comes to about 15 minutes per resident per day, compared to 37 minutes at a 4-star-staffing Texas facility.
RN turnover runs low: roughly 3 in 10 registered nurses left in the past year, below the state's 25th-percentile cutoff — better than about three-quarters of nursing homes in Texas on that measure. Total nursing staff turnover is 46.3%, which sits just above the Texas median of 50% — typical for the state.
CMS recorded 2 fines totaling $236,840. The Texas median for facilities that receive any fine is $20,699, and 30% of Texas nursing homes received no fines at all. These two fines are well above the typical range for penalized facilities in this state.
Occupancy runs at about 74% of licensed beds — 86 residents in a 116-bed facility. Quality-measure outcomes rate 5 stars across both long-stay and short-stay residents, the highest rating CMS assigns.

Questions to ask when you tour
Basis for the two large fines
Ask what specific deficiencies triggered the two CMS fines totaling $236,840, and what corrective steps were completed.
Daily RN coverage on each shift
Reported RN hours average about 15 minutes per resident per day — ask how many RNs are on duty during day, evening, and overnight shifts.
How the 1-star health inspection rating is being addressed
CMS rates health inspections 1 star; ask which deficiency categories drove that rating and what the facility has changed since the last survey.
Reason for the lower occupancy
The facility is running at about 74% capacity; ask whether admissions have slowed due to staffing constraints, recent survey findings, or another cause.
How 5-star outcomes are maintained with 1-star staffing
Quality-measure outcomes rate 5 stars despite 1-star staffing; ask how care plans and clinical oversight are structured to sustain those results.
Resident Council meeting schedule and access
The facility has a Resident Council but no Family Council; ask how families receive updates from council meetings and how they can raise concerns formally.
