What the data says
CMS rates this facility 1 star on health inspections — the lowest tier. Three fines totaling $127,645 have been issued; the Texas median across fined facilities is $20,699, and about 30% of Texas nursing homes have received no fines at all. CMS has also substantiated findings of resident abuse or neglect here within the past 36 months.
CMS has flagged substantiated abuse or neglect at this facility within the past 36 months. That finding is recorded on CMS Care Compare and is separate from the inspection rating and fines record.
CMS rates staffing 3 stars — a tier shared by about 19% of Texas nursing homes. Each resident receives roughly 197 minutes of nursing care per day, about 44 minutes less than at a 4-star-staffing facility in Texas. Residents here need more hands-on care than at a typical facility — they are sicker or less mobile on average — so those 197 minutes stretch thinner than the raw number suggests.
About 3 in 10 nursing staff left in the past year — below the state's 25th-percentile cutoff, meaning turnover is better than roughly three-quarters of nursing homes in Texas. One administrator has turned over in the past year.
CMS rates quality measures 4 stars overall, with a 5-star rating for long-stay residents. Short-stay residents — those recovering from a hospitalization — are rated 2 stars on quality measures.
The facility is operating at roughly 66% of its 187 licensed beds, with 124 residents on an average day.

Questions to ask when you tour
Abuse findings and current safeguards
CMS has substantiated abuse or neglect findings here within the past 36 months — ask what happened, what changed, and how incidents are reported and tracked today.
What the three fines covered
Three CMS fines totaling $127,645 have been issued — ask what deficiencies triggered each fine and what corrective steps were taken.
Staffing on nights and weekends
Reported weekend nursing hours run lower than weekday figures; ask how many nurses and aides are on the floor overnight and on weekends for 124 residents.
Short-stay care coordination
Long-stay quality measures rate 5 stars, but short-stay rates 2 stars — ask how the facility manages care for residents recovering from a hospitalization and what the typical discharge process looks like.
Current administrator and leadership
One administrator turned over in the past year — ask how long the current administrator has been in place and who oversees daily operations.
Reasons for lower occupancy
The facility is running at about 66% of licensed capacity; ask whether that reflects a pause in admissions, staffing limits, or another operational factor.
