Federal inspection record

33 health citations on file3 immediate-jeopardy findings23 from complaints2 federal fines totalling $36K1 payment denial

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 this facility 2 stars on staffing — roughly the bottom third of Texas nursing homes on this measure. Each resident receives about 182 minutes of nursing care per day, approximately 59 minutes less than at a 4-star-staffing facility in Texas. Of those 182 minutes, only 16 come from a registered nurse. Residents here also tend to need more hands-on care than at a typical facility — less mobile or more medically complex on average — so those nursing minutes are spread across a more demanding resident population than the raw numbers alone convey.

Two CMS fines totaling $35,731 have been issued against this facility. That combined total is above the Texas median of $20,699 among facilities that do receive fines; roughly 30% of Texas nursing homes received no fines at all in the same period.

The facility is operating at approximately 43% of its licensed bed capacity — about 79 residents in a 184-bed certified building. That figure falls well below typical occupancy for nursing homes in the state.

Questions to ask when you tour

  1. Reason for low occupancy

    With only about 79 residents in a 184-bed building, ask what is driving the 43% occupancy rate and whether it has been declining or stable over the past year.

  2. Staffing levels on evenings and weekends

    Reported weekend nursing hours average 2.9 hours per resident per day — lower than the already-below-average weekday figure; ask how many nurses and aides are on each shift Saturday and Sunday.

  3. Details behind the two CMS fines

    Two fines totaling $35,731 have been issued; ask what deficiencies triggered them and what specific corrective steps the facility has taken.

  4. Registered nurse coverage each day

    Reported RN hours come to about 16 minutes per resident per day; ask how many hours a registered nurse is physically on the floor and who covers clinical decisions when no RN is present.

  5. Management company's role

    Day-to-day operations are run by 8383 Meadow Rd Opco LLC under a hospital-district licensee; ask who holds ultimate accountability for care decisions and how long the current management arrangement has been in place.

  6. How Resident and Family Councils function

    Both a Resident Council and a Family Council are listed; ask how often each meets, who attends from leadership, and how concerns raised in those meetings are tracked and resolved.
