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

CMS rates it 1 star overall, with a 1-star staffing rating and a $47,932 fine on record. Quality-of-care measures rate 4 stars. The facility is managed by Dimmitttx, LLC under a hospital district licensee, and two administrators have left in the past year.

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

What the data says

CMS rates this facility 1 star on staffing — the lowest tier, shared by about 38% of Texas nursing homes. Each resident receives roughly 164 minutes of nursing care per day, about 77 minutes less than at a 4-star-staffing facility in Texas. Residents here also require more hands-on care than at a typical facility — more dependent or medically complex on average — so the 164 minutes stretch even thinner than the number alone suggests.

Nursing staff turnover runs low: roughly 4 in 10 nursing staff left in the past year, below the state's 25th-percentile cutoff and better than about three-quarters of nursing homes in Texas. That stability stands alongside the low staffing volume — a consistent team, but a small one.

Two administrators have left in the past year, signaling organizational instability that residents and families typically feel in day-to-day operations.

CMS recorded one fine totaling $47,932 — above the Texas state median of $20,699 for facilities that do receive fines, and about 30% of Texas facilities have no fines at all.

The facility is operating at roughly 47% of its 114 licensed beds, with about 53 residents on an average day. That low occupancy, alongside the staffing and administrative signals, is a concrete fact families should weigh.

Questions to ask when you tour

  1. Staffing levels on nights and weekends

    With 164 minutes of nursing care per resident per day — 77 minutes below the Texas 4-star benchmark — ask how many nurses and aides are on the floor during overnight and weekend shifts specifically.

  2. Two administrators in one year

    Two administrators have left in the past 12 months; ask who is currently in the role, how long they have been in place, and what prompted the transitions.

  3. Why occupancy is near half

    The facility averages about 53 residents against 114 licensed beds; ask directly what accounts for the low census and whether any beds or units have been taken out of service.

  4. The $47,932 CMS fine

    One CMS fine totaling $47,932 is on record; ask what deficiency triggered it and what corrective steps were taken.

  5. No Family Council on record

    CMS filings show a Resident Council but no Family Council; ask whether families have a structured forum to raise concerns with leadership.

  6. Management company's role day to day

    The facility is licensed to a hospital district but managed by Dimmitttx, LLC; ask which entity sets staffing budgets and handles complaint resolution.
