Federal inspection record

58 health citations on file6 immediate-jeopardy findings43 from complaints3 federal fines totalling $379K

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

South Dallas Nursing & Rehabilitation is a 91-bed nursing home in Dallas County accepting Medicare and Medicaid. CMS rates it 1 star overall — the lowest tier — with a 1-star health inspection rating, substantiated abuse or neglect findings within the past 36 months, and SFF candidate status flagging a pattern of serious deficiencies. Three fines total $378,617 since the data period covered. The facility is operating at about 70% of licensed beds.

What the data says

CMS rates staffing here at 1 star — the bottom tier, shared by about 38% of Texas nursing homes. Each resident receives roughly 140 minutes of nursing care per day, about 101 minutes less than at a 4-star-staffing facility in Texas. That gap is made larger by the resident mix: people living here need more hands-on care than at a typical facility — sicker, or less mobile on average — so those 140 minutes stretch thinner than the raw number suggests. Reported RN time is 3 minutes per resident per day.

CMS has substantiated findings of resident abuse or neglect at this facility within the past 36 months. CMS has also flagged it as a Special Focus candidate — a step below the formal Special Focus Facility designation, signaling a pattern of serious deficiencies identified across multiple inspections.

Three CMS fines total $378,617. The median fine total among penalized Texas nursing homes is about $20,699; this facility's total is roughly 18 times that figure. About 30% of Texas nursing homes have received no fines in this period.

The facility is operating at roughly 70% of its 91 licensed beds — 63 residents on an average day. That level of vacancy, alongside the safety flags and fine history, is a concrete fact for families to weigh.

Questions to ask when you tour

  1. Response to abuse findings

    CMS has substantiated abuse or neglect findings here in the past 36 months — ask what specific policy or staffing changes followed those findings.

  2. SFF candidate designation steps

    CMS flagged this facility as a Special Focus candidate; ask what deficiencies triggered that designation and what the current corrective action plan covers.

  3. Nearly $379,000 in fines

    Three CMS fines totaling $378,617 have been issued — ask what each citation was for and how each underlying problem was resolved.

  4. Daily RN presence

    Reported registered-nurse time is 3 minutes per resident per day; ask how many hours a licensed RN is physically on the floor each day and overnight.

  5. Current bed occupancy

    The facility averages about 63 residents against 91 licensed beds — ask whether staffing levels have been adjusted to match the current census.

  6. Administrator continuity

    One administrator left in the past year; ask how long the current administrator has been in place and who oversees care decisions day to day.
