Questions to ask when you tour
Services included at this location
Ask which health, therapy, or personal-care services are provided on-site, since the state record lists program type but not individual service offerings.
Staffing ratios on a typical day
With a licensed capacity of 160 participants, ask how many staff are on the floor during peak hours and how that number changes when attendance is high.
Transportation and pickup coverage
Ask whether the program arranges transportation to and from Brownsville-area addresses, and what happens when a driver or vehicle is unavailable.
How medical needs are handled
Ask what protocols are in place when a participant's health changes during the day — who is contacted, what care is available on-site, and when emergency services are called.
Attendance and wait time
Ask how current attendance compares to the 160-person licensed capacity and whether there is a waitlist for new participants.
