Federal inspection record

20 health citations on file3 immediate-jeopardy findings11 from complaints2 federal fines totalling $175K

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.

About this community

Oak Ridge Manor is a 114-bed Medicare/Medicaid nursing home in Brownwood, Texas, licensed since 1988 and managed by Brownwood II Enterprises, LLC under the Creative Solutions in Healthcare chain. CMS rates it 4 stars overall, with a 5-star quality-of-care rating but 3 stars on staffing and health inspection. Two CMS fines totaling $174,677 have been issued; the facility is currently operating at roughly 46% of licensed capacity, with about 52 residents per day.

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

What the data says

CMS rates staffing here at 3 stars — residents receive about 195 minutes of nursing care per day, roughly 46 minutes less than at a 4-star-staffing facility in Texas. Residents here also need more hands-on care than at a typical facility — more dependent or less mobile on average — so those 195 minutes stretch thinner than the raw number suggests.

Two CMS fines have been issued totaling $174,677. The state median for fines at Texas nursing homes that receive any is about $20,699, and roughly 30% of Texas facilities have no fines at all. These two fines, at nearly eight-and-a-half times the state median total, represent a substantially above-average penalty record.

The facility is running at roughly 46% of its 114 licensed beds — about 52 residents on a typical day. That figure stands alongside the fine history and 3-star staffing rating; families considering placement here will want to understand the reasons behind it.

Quality-of-care measures rate 5 stars overall, with long-stay outcomes also at 5 stars and short-stay outcomes at 4 stars. These scores reflect CMS's assessment of clinical outcomes — things like wound rates, rehospitalizations, and pain management — and sit above the staffing and inspection ratings.

Questions to ask when you tour

  1. What the fines were for

    CMS issued two fines totaling $174,677 — ask what violations triggered them, when they occurred, and what corrective steps have been completed.

  2. Current bed occupancy explanation

    The facility is running at roughly 46% capacity; ask what is driving that low census and whether it reflects admissions holds, staffing constraints, or something else.

  3. Staffing levels on nights and weekends

    Weekend nursing hours average 2.8 hours per resident per day, below the weekday figure — ask how many nurses and aides are on duty overnight and on weekends.

  4. How 5-star outcomes are maintained

    Quality-of-care rates 5 stars despite 3-star staffing — ask how care plans are monitored and who is responsible for reviewing resident outcomes day to day.

  5. Management company's operational role

    The facility is licensed to a hospital district but managed by Brownwood II Enterprises — ask which entity makes day-to-day staffing and care decisions.

  6. Resident Council access and frequency

    A Resident Council meets here but no Family Council exists — ask how family members can raise concerns and how often the Resident Council meets.
