About this community
Life Care Center of Haltom is a 127-bed nursing home in Haltom City, Tarrant County, operated under Life Care Centers of America.

Written from CMS Care Compare and state licensing records · last updated April 19, 2026
What the data says
CMS rates staffing here at 3 stars. Each resident receives about 223 minutes of nursing care per day — roughly 18 minutes less than at a 4-star-staffing facility in Texas. That places this facility among roughly the bottom fifth of Texas nursing homes on staffing; about 19% of Texas facilities share this rating tier.
Despite the staffing rating, CMS rates quality measures at 5 stars for both residents who live here long-term and those who stay for shorter rehabilitation. Those two measures track outcomes like pain management, fall rates, and avoidance of hospitalizations — so the outcomes data sits at the top of the scale even as the staffing hours sit below the state's higher-rated peers.
The facility is operating at about 70% of its licensed beds — 88 residents out of 127. That level is lower than typical for a nursing home of this size, which generally runs closer to full occupancy.

Questions to ask when you tour
Staffing levels on nights and weekends
Weekend nursing hours average 3.26 hours per resident per day, below the weekday figure — ask how many nurses and aides are on duty during those shifts specifically.
Why so many beds are empty
The facility is running at 70% occupancy with 39 beds unfilled — ask what has driven admissions below typical levels and whether that reflects a deliberate policy or recent decline.
RN coverage each day
Reported registered-nurse hours work out to about 35 minutes per resident per day — ask how many hours a registered nurse is physically on-site and whether an RN is present overnight.
How outcomes stay high with mid-tier staffing
Quality measures rate 5 stars while staffing rates 3 stars — ask which specific outcome areas drive that rating and how the care-planning process is structured.
Resident Council activity
The facility has a Resident Council but no Family Council — ask how often the Resident Council meets and how families can raise concerns or receive updates.
