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 — a tier shared by about 19% of Texas nursing homes. Each resident receives about 227 minutes of nursing care per day, roughly 14 minutes less than at a 4-star-staffing facility in Texas. The resident mix here is less dependent on daily hands-on care than at a typical facility, so those nursing hours stretch further than the raw number suggests.

The quality-measures rating is 1 star — the lowest tier CMS assigns. This rating reflects how residents fare on tracked outcomes such as falls, pressure wounds, infections, and loss of mobility. A 1-star result on long-stay quality measures, alongside a 3-star staffing rating, means the staffing level alone is not explaining the outcomes.

The facility operates at about 66% of its 264 licensed beds, with roughly 175 residents on an average day. Low occupancy at a nursing home can reflect resident or family choice, local competition, or payer constraints — the data alone doesn't distinguish between them.

Questions to ask when you tour

  1. Quality outcomes at 1 star

    CMS rates this facility 1 star on quality measures — ask which specific outcomes drove that rating and what changes have been made in the past 12 months.

  2. Staffing and resident care needs

    Residents here require less hands-on daily care than the Texas average — ask how staffing levels are adjusted if a new resident arrives with higher care needs.

  3. Why occupancy is at 66%

    Roughly 89 of 264 beds sit empty on a typical day — ask what accounts for that vacancy and whether the facility projects it will change.

  4. Management company's role

    Day-to-day operations are run by Pomerado Ranch Healthcare LLC under a hospital district license — ask how decisions about staffing and care policy are divided between the two entities.

  5. Resident Council access

    The facility has a Resident Council but no Family Council — ask how family members raise concerns between scheduled care-plan meetings.

  6. Ensign Group oversight

    This location is part of The Ensign Group chain — ask how often corporate or regional staff visit and what metrics they use to track this facility's performance.
