Questions to ask when you tour

1. 1

   Staffing at 10 residents

   With only 10 licensed beds, ask how many staff are on duty during a typical day shift and overnight, and what happens when a caregiver calls out sick.

2. 2

   Type B care scope

   Texas Type B assisted living permits residents who need nighttime assistance — ask which specific services are provided and which needs would require a transfer to a higher level of care.

3. 3

   Backup coverage and emergencies

   At this size, ask whether there is always a second person on-site and what the protocol is if the primary caregiver has an emergency.

4. 4

   Medicaid and private pay options

   The licensed record shows zero Medicaid beds — ask how the facility is funded and what happens if a resident's private funds run out.

5. 5

   Waitlist and current occupancy

   With only 10 beds total, ask how many are currently occupied and whether there is a waitlist or typical vacancy timeline.
