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.

What the data says
CMS rates staffing here at 4 stars — roughly the top 9% of Texas nursing homes on staffing. Each resident receives about 280 minutes of nursing care per day, well above the 241-minute threshold for a 4-star-staffing facility in Texas. Staff hours per resident exceed what a typical resident mix would require, so those minutes are not being stretched by an unusually dependent population.
One CMS fine totaling $45,741 is on record. About 30% of Texas nursing homes have received no fines at all, and the statewide median for facilities that do have fines is roughly $20,700 — placing this facility's single fine above that midpoint.

Questions to ask when you tour
Scope of the fine
Ask what the $45,741 CMS fine was cited for and what process changes, if any, followed the citation.
Medicare-only admission criteria
All 42 beds are Medicare-certified with no Medicaid beds — ask whether a resident whose Medicare benefit ends has options to stay or must transfer.
Resident Council access
The facility has a Resident Council but no Family Council — ask how family members raise concerns or receive updates when residents cannot advocate for themselves.
Bed availability and waitlist
With 37 of 42 beds occupied on average, ask whether there is currently a waitlist and what the typical wait time has been.
Staffing consistency on weekends
Weekend nursing hours are reported at 278 minutes per resident — ask how weekend staffing is structured compared to weekdays and whether the same caregivers rotate through.
