Federal inspection record

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 1 star — the bottom tier, shared by about 38% of Texas nursing homes. Each resident receives approximately 204 minutes of nursing care per day, about 37 minutes less than at a 4-star-staffing facility in Texas. Of that, roughly 16 minutes comes from a registered nurse. Residents here tend to need more hands-on care than at a typical facility — less mobile or more medically complex on average — so those nursing minutes stretch thinner than the raw numbers suggest.
One administrator has turned over in the past year, placing this facility in an elevated tier for leadership change. That kind of transition can affect how consistently care policies are applied day to day.
CMS recorded two fines totaling $74,823 since the facility's data window. The state median for fines among Texas nursing homes that receive any fine at all is $20,699; this facility's total is roughly 3.6 times that figure. About 30% of Texas nursing homes have zero fines in the same period.
The facility is operating at approximately 58% of its 120 licensed beds, with an average of about 69 residents per day. That occupancy level is low relative to typical operations for a facility of this size.

Questions to ask when you tour
Staffing levels on evenings and weekends
With a 1-star staffing rating and weekend nursing hours recorded at 2.84 hours per resident per day, ask how many nurses and aides are on the floor during nights, weekends, and holidays.
Details behind the two fines
CMS issued two fines totaling $74,823 — well above the Texas median — so ask what the citations were for and what specific changes were made in response.
Recent administrator transition
An administrator changed in the past year; ask who is currently leading the building, how long they have been in this role, and how they plan to address the facility's 1-star overall rating.
Why occupancy is below 60%
The facility is filling only about 58% of its licensed beds; ask directly whether that reflects staffing constraints, a voluntary hold on admissions, or another operational factor.
Absence of a Family Council
The facility has a Resident Council but no Family Council; ask whether one has been considered and how family members currently raise concerns about care.
RN coverage overnight
Reported registered-nurse time averages about 16 minutes per resident per day — ask whether a registered nurse is on site around the clock or available only by phone after hours.
