Federal inspection record

17 health citations on file2 immediate-jeopardy findings4 from complaints1 federal fine totalling $46K

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

Continuing Care at Highland Springs is a 44-bed nonprofit nursing home in Dallas (Collin County), managed by Erickson Living Management and operating at full capacity — expect a waitlist. CMS rates it 3 stars overall, with a 5-star staffing rating and 4-star quality measures. One CMS fine of $45,705 is on record. The license runs through February 2028.

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

What the data says

Staffing rates 5 stars — roughly the top 2% of Texas nursing homes on staffing. Each resident receives about 261 minutes of nursing care per day, well above the 241-minute threshold for a 4-star staffing facility in Texas. The resident mix here requires less hands-on daily assistance than at a typical facility, so those staffing hours go further than the raw minutes already suggest.

About 3 in 10 nursing staff left in the past year — below Texas's 25th-percentile cutoff, meaning retention is better than roughly three-quarters of nursing homes in the state. RN turnover runs at roughly 2 in 10, also in the low tier. A long-stay resident is unlikely to cycle through multiple primary caregivers.

One administrator has turned over in the past year. That's one level above the baseline — not the two-or-more threshold for a high-instability flag, but a change in leadership worth asking about when touring.

CMS recorded one fine totaling $45,705. About 30% of Texas nursing homes have no fines on record; this facility's single fine is more than double the state median fine of $20,699.

All 44 licensed beds are filled, with an average of 43.8 residents per day. A waitlist is likely.

Questions to ask when you tour

  1. Current waitlist and timeline

    The facility is operating at 100% of licensed beds — ask how long the current waitlist runs and whether a spot can be held.

  2. Details on the $45,705 fine

    CMS recorded one fine totaling $45,705 — above the Texas median — so ask what deficiency triggered it and what corrective steps followed.

  3. Recent administrator transition

    One administrator left in the past year; ask who leads the facility now, how long they've been in the role, and whether leadership is expected to remain stable.

  4. Health inspection rating gap

    The overall rating is 3 stars, but the health inspection component is 2 stars — ask what the most recent survey found and how those findings were addressed.

  5. Resident Council access and meetings

    The facility has a Resident Council but no Family Council — ask how families are formally notified of concerns that surface through the Resident Council.
