About this community
Diversicare of Luling is a 60-bed nursing home in Caldwell County, TX, licensed since 1971 and managed by Diversicare Healthcare under a hospital-district licensee.

The facility is currently running at about 65% occupancy, with 39 of 60 beds filled on an average day.
Written from CMS Care Compare and state licensing records · last updated April 19, 2026
What the data says
CMS rates staffing here 1 star — the lowest tier, shared by about 38% of Texas nursing homes. Residents receive roughly 178 minutes of nursing care per day, about 63 minutes less than what residents at a 4-star-staffing facility in Texas receive. Residents here also need more hands-on care than at a typical facility — less mobile or more medically complex on average — so those 178 minutes stretch thinner than the raw number suggests.
One administrator has turned over in the past year. That places this facility in an elevated tier, below the threshold for a high-turnover flag but above the norm.
The facility is running at about 65% of its licensed capacity — 39 residents in a 60-bed building. Other signals in this record are present alongside that figure.

Questions to ask when you tour
Staffing levels on nights and weekends
Weekday nursing hours are already 63 minutes below the Texas 4-star benchmark — ask how many nurses and aides are on duty overnight and on weekends, when the reported weekend figure drops to about 157 minutes per resident.
Resident mix and care complexity
CMS data shows residents here need more hands-on care than at a typical facility — ask how staffing is adjusted when residents have higher medical needs.
Current administrator and tenure
Records show at least one administrator change in the past year — ask who is currently in the role, how long they have been in place, and who oversees day-to-day operations.
Reason for low occupancy
The facility averages 39 residents in a 60-bed building — ask whether the lower census reflects a recent change in admissions, staffing constraints, or something else.
How resident and family councils work
CMS records show both a Resident Council and a Family Council — ask how often each meets, how concerns raised there are tracked, and what has changed as a result in the past year.
