Federal inspection record

47 health citations on file1 immediate-jeopardy finding10 from complaints1 federal fine totalling $68K

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.

Written from CMS Care Compare and state licensing records · last updated April 19, 2026

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 209 minutes of nursing care per day, about 32 minutes less than what residents at a 4-star-staffing facility in Texas receive. Residents here also require more hands-on care than at a typical facility — less mobile or more medically complex on average — so those 209 minutes stretch thinner than the number alone suggests.

RN turnover is high: roughly 8 in 10 registered nurses left in the past year. A long-stay resident will likely go through multiple primary nurses over the course of a year.

Two administrators have left in the past year. Residents and direct-care staff typically feel leadership instability in daily operations.

CMS recorded one fine totaling $67,706. The state median fine across Texas nursing homes that receive any fine is about $20,699, so this single penalty is more than three times the statewide midpoint. About 30% of Texas nursing homes have received no fines at all.

The facility is operating at roughly 55% of its 125 licensed beds — about 69 residents on an average day. Paired with the staffing and turnover signals above, low occupancy at a nursing home can reflect reduced referrals from hospitals or discharge planners.

Questions to ask when you tour

  1. Administrator continuity since transitions

    Two administrators have left in the past year — ask who is currently in the role, how long they have been in place, and whether the position is expected to remain stable.

  2. RN coverage on evenings and weekends

    With RN turnover at roughly 8 in 10 over the past year, ask how many registered nurses are on duty during nights and weekends and how open shifts are covered.

  3. Context behind the $67,706 fine

    CMS issued one fine totaling $67,706 — ask what deficiency triggered it, what corrective steps were taken, and whether the deficiency has been cleared.

  4. Why occupancy is near half capacity

    The facility averages about 69 residents against 125 licensed beds — ask what is driving that and whether it affects staffing levels or available services.

  5. Resident Council meeting frequency

    The facility has a Resident Council but no Family Council — ask how often the Resident Council meets and how families can raise concerns outside of that channel.

  6. Management company's day-to-day role

    Southwest LTC manages the facility while Nacogdoches County Hospital District holds the license — ask which entity sets staffing budgets and responds to care complaints.
