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 1 star — the bottom tier, shared by about 38% of Texas nursing homes. Each resident receives roughly 192 minutes of nursing care per day, about 49 minutes less than at a 4-star-staffing facility in Texas. Residents here also require more hands-on care than a typical facility — sicker or less mobile on average — so those 192 minutes stretch thinner than the raw number suggests. RNs, who handle the most complex care needs, account for only 13 of those minutes.
About 7 in 10 nursing staff left in the past year. Texas's median facility sees roughly 5 in 10 leave annually, putting this facility in the top quarter of the state for turnover. A long-stay resident will likely cycle through two or three primary caregivers over the course of a year.
CMS recorded 4 fines totaling $50,830 since the facility's inspection record began. The state median for fined facilities is about $20,699 — this total is roughly 2.5 times that figure. About 30% of Texas nursing homes have received no fines at all.

Questions to ask when you tour
Staffing levels on nights and weekends
Weekend nursing hours average 2.82 per resident per day — lower than the weekday figure; ask how many nurses and aides are on each shift Saturday and Sunday.
What the four fines covered
CMS issued 4 fines totaling $50,830; ask what deficiencies triggered each citation and what process changes followed.
Caregiver assignment for long-stay residents
With 7 in 10 nursing staff leaving in the past year, ask whether residents are assigned consistent aides or whether assignments rotate frequently.
How heavier care needs are handled
Residents here require more hands-on help than at a typical facility; ask how staffing levels are adjusted when a resident's condition declines.
Management company's role day to day
The facility is licensed to a hospital district but managed by MHC Development, LLC; ask which entity sets staffing budgets and responds to complaints.
Family Council availability
CMS records show a Resident Council but no Family Council; ask whether families have a formal channel to raise concerns collectively.
