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.

The facility is operating at about 66% of licensed capacity, with 74 residents on a typical day.

Written from CMS Care Compare and state licensing records · last updated April 19, 2026

What the data says

CMS rates staffing here 1 star. Each resident receives about 183 minutes of nursing care per day — roughly 58 minutes less than at a 4-star-staffing facility in Texas. Residents here need more hands-on care than at a typical facility — sicker, or less mobile on average — so the same staffing hours stretch thinner than the raw minutes suggest. Registered nurse time is 18 minutes per resident per day; the threshold for a 4-star staffing facility in Texas is 37 minutes.

About 7 in 10 nursing staff left in the past year — above the 75th-percentile cutoff for Texas, meaning turnover is higher than at least three-quarters of nursing homes in the state. A long-stay resident will likely go through two or three primary caregivers over the course of a year.

Four CMS fines totaling $243,325 have been assessed — more than eleven times the Texas median fine total of $20,699. About 30% of Texas facilities have no fines at all.

The facility is running at roughly 66% of its 112 licensed beds, with about 74 residents on a typical day. Low occupancy, combined with the staffing and fine signals above, is a concrete data point families may want to explore directly with the facility.

Questions to ask when you tour

  1. Staffing levels day to day

    CMS logs 183 minutes of nursing care per resident per day here — ask how many nurses and aides are scheduled on a typical morning shift and how often agency staff fill those slots.

  2. Seven in ten staff left last year

    With a 65% nursing-staff turnover rate, ask who has been on the floor the longest and how the facility orients new caregivers to residents with complex needs.

  3. Four CMS fines totaling $243,325

    Ask what the four fines were for, what corrective steps were taken, and whether any of those areas have been re-inspected since.

  4. Why occupancy is at 66%

    The facility has about 38 beds unoccupied on a typical day — ask what is driving that vacancy and whether staffing levels are adjusted as census changes.

  5. Management company role

    The licensed owner is Fannin County Hospital Authority, but day-to-day management runs through 150 Gibson Rd Opco LLC — ask which entity sets staffing budgets and handles complaint resolution.

  6. Short-stay care outcomes

    CMS rates short-stay quality measures 1 star while long-stay rates 4 stars — ask what share of admissions are short-stay rehabilitation and what the facility's return-to-home rate looks like.
