Questions to ask when you tour
Staffing ratios at 13 residents
With only 13 licensed beds, ask how many staff are on duty during day, evening, and overnight shifts on a typical day.
Type A care limits
Texas Type A facilities serve residents who can evacuate independently — ask whether your parent's current or likely future needs fall within those boundaries.
What happens if needs increase
Ask what the process is if a resident's care needs grow beyond what a Type A license permits, and how transfers are handled.
Administrator tenure and continuity
Ask how long Santiago Vega has been administrator and who covers day-to-day operations during absences at a facility this size.
