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 at 3 stars — residents receive about 192 minutes of nursing care per day, roughly 49 minutes less than at a 4-star-staffing facility in Texas. Registered nurse coverage accounts for 27 of those minutes. Residents here need more hands-on care than at a typical facility, so the same hours stretch thinner than the raw number suggests.

Nursing staff turnover runs at about 3 in 10 per year — below Texas's 25th-percentile cutoff, meaning retention is better than roughly three-quarters of nursing homes in the state. RN turnover is also low at about 2 in 10. A long-stay resident is less likely to cycle through primary caregivers than at most Texas facilities.

CMS has recorded 5 fines totaling $68,371 since the facility's inspection history. The state median for facilities that have any fines at all is $20,699, and about 30% of Texas nursing homes have zero fines. The total here is more than three times the state median.

Questions to ask when you tour

  1. Health inspection rating of 1 star

    CMS gave this facility a 1-star health inspection score — ask what specific deficiencies drove that rating and what corrective steps have been taken since.

  2. Five fines totaling $68,371

    Five separate CMS fines have been issued; ask what each citation was for and whether the underlying issues have been formally resolved.

  3. Weekend nursing coverage

    Weekend nursing hours average 2.8 hours per resident per day — lower than the overall daily figure of 3.2 hours; ask how staffing levels and supervisory oversight differ on weekends.

  4. Ownership and management structure

    The facility is owned by Val Verde County Hospital District but managed by Regency Ihs Of Heritage Park, LLC; ask who holds day-to-day decision-making authority and how disputes between owner and manager are resolved.

  5. Resident Council access and activity

    A Resident Council exists here but no Family Council; ask how families receive information from Resident Council meetings and how they can raise concerns formally.

  6. High quality-measure scores with low inspection rating

    Outcome measures rate 5 stars while health inspections rate 1 star — ask how the facility explains that gap and which deficiencies the inspections documented.
