Federal inspection record
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.

CMS rates it 2 stars overall, with a 1-star health inspection rating — its weakest score. Quality-of-care measures rate 5 stars for long-stay residents. The facility is running at about 61% of licensed capacity, with 77 of 128 beds occupied on an average day.
Written from CMS Care Compare and state licensing records · last updated April 19, 2026
What the data says
CMS rates Wedgewood 3 stars on staffing — a tier shared by about 19% of Texas nursing homes. Each resident receives roughly 235 minutes of nursing care per day, about 6 minutes below the threshold for a 4-star staffing rating in Texas. The hours reported exceed what the resident mix alone would require, meaning staff hours here are proportionally higher than the complexity of care demands — the raw minutes are not being stretched thin.
One administrator left in the past year. A single departure in 12 months sits above the baseline but below the threshold for a high-turnover designation; day-to-day care routines may have seen some disruption during the transition.
CMS recorded 2 fines totaling $31,778 since the facility's most recent inspection cycle. The state median for fines among penalized Texas nursing homes is about $20,699; roughly 30% of Texas facilities received no fines at all during this period.
The facility is operating at approximately 61% of its licensed 128 beds — about 77 residents on an average day. That level of vacancy, alongside a 1-star health inspection rating, represents two data points families may want to ask about directly.

Questions to ask when you tour
Health inspection rating of 1 star
CMS rates the health inspection record here at 1 star — the lowest tier — so ask what specific deficiencies were cited and what corrective steps have been taken since.
Two CMS fines since last inspection
Two fines totaling $31,778 are on record; ask what violations triggered each fine and whether the underlying issues have been formally resolved with the state.
61% bed occupancy
Roughly 50 of 128 licensed beds are currently vacant — ask whether that reflects a deliberate staffing-to-census decision or a broader shift in admissions.
Recent administrator departure
One administrator left in the past 12 months; ask who is currently in the role, how long they have been on-site, and whether department leadership has been stable.
No Family Council on record
CMS shows only a Resident Council — no Family Council; ask whether families have a formal channel to raise concerns and how the facility communicates with them regularly.
Weekend staffing levels
Reported weekend nursing hours run about 35 minutes per resident below the weekday average; ask how staffing is scheduled on Saturdays and Sundays specifically.
