What the data says
CMS rates staffing here at 1 star — the lowest tier, applied to about 38% of Texas nursing homes. Each resident receives roughly 195 minutes of total nursing care per day, about 46 minutes less than at a 4-star-staffing facility in Texas. Registered nurses account for just 14 of those minutes. Residents here also require more hands-on care than at a typical facility — more dependent or medically complex on average — so those hours stretch thinner than the raw numbers suggest.
About 6 in 10 nursing staff left in the past year, above the Texas 75th percentile of 60%. RN turnover is sharper: roughly 8 in 10 registered nurses left over the same period. A long-stay resident will likely go through multiple primary caregivers during their time here.
One administrator has turned over in the past year — elevated relative to what the pre-compute step treats as baseline. That sits alongside the staffing and turnover picture above.
The facility is operating at about 56% of its 120 licensed beds — an average of 68 residents per day. That occupancy level, combined with the staffing and turnover signals, is the fuller context for this facility's current operation.
Long-stay quality measures rate 5 stars — the top tier — while short-stay quality measures rate 1 star. Those two scores move in opposite directions, which reflects a meaningful split between residents who live here for months or years and those who arrive for shorter recovery periods.

Questions to ask when you tour
Staffing levels on nights and weekends
Weekend nursing hours average 2.58 hours per resident per day — lower than the reported weekday figure; ask how many nurses and aides are on duty overnight and on weekends.
RN turnover over the past year
Roughly 8 in 10 registered nurses left in the past year; ask how many RNs are currently on staff and how long they have been in their roles.
Why short-stay quality rates 1 star
Long-stay quality rates 5 stars but short-stay rates 1 star; ask what the facility's most common short-stay outcomes are and how rehab or recovery residents are tracked.
Current bed availability and admission pace
The facility averages 68 residents against 120 licensed beds; ask whether that vacancy reflects reduced admissions, staffing constraints, or both.
Administrator tenure and continuity
One administrator has left in the past year; ask how long the current administrator has been in the role and who oversees operations day-to-day.
Resident Council frequency and access
The facility has a Resident Council but no Family Council; ask how often the council meets and how family members can raise concerns in its absence.
