Questions to ask when you tour

1. 1

   Staffing levels on each shift

   With 16 licensed beds, ask how many staff are on duty during the day, evening, and overnight — and whether that number changes on weekends.

2. 2

   What Type A licensing covers

   Texas Type A permits residents who can evacuate independently; ask whether your parent's mobility and care needs fall within what this license allows.

3. 3

   Handling higher care needs over time

   Ask what happens if a resident's needs grow beyond what a Type A license permits — whether they assist with transitions or the family must arrange them.

4. 4

   Owner-operator involvement day to day

   Ralph Garza is both licensee and administrator; ask how care decisions and staffing are managed when he is off-site or unavailable.

5. 5

   How concerns get raised

   Ask what formal process residents and families use to raise concerns — for example, whether there are regular family meetings or a written grievance procedure.
