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 at 2 stars. Each resident receives about 212 minutes of nursing care per day — roughly 29 minutes less than at a 4-star-staffing facility in Texas, which sets its threshold at 241 minutes. Residents here also tend to need more hands-on care than at a typical facility — less mobile or more medically complex on average — so the same hours stretch thinner than the raw number suggests. About 32% of Texas nursing homes share this staffing rating.
Roughly 4 in 10 nursing staff left in the past year. That puts total turnover below Texas's 25th-percentile cutoff — better than about three-quarters of nursing homes in the state.
One administrator has turned over in the past year. This is above the baseline CareWitness flags as unremarkable, though below the threshold of two or more departures that signals acute organizational instability.
Carrara received 2 CMS fines totaling $18,226 in the period on record. That total sits just below the Texas median of $20,699 among facilities that received any fines at all; about 30% of Texas nursing homes had zero fines in the same period.

Questions to ask when you tour
Staffing plan for sicker residents
With a 2-star staffing rating and a resident mix that skews toward higher care needs, ask how the facility adjusts nurse assignments when a resident's condition changes.
RN coverage on nights and weekends
Weekend nursing hours here run at 3.09 hours per resident per day — below the weekday figure; ask what RN presence looks like overnight and on weekends specifically.
Recent administrator transition
One administrator left in the past year; ask who currently holds that role, how long they have been in place, and whether a permanent hire is settled.
Basis for the two CMS fines
Two fines totaling $18,226 appear in the CMS record; ask what the citations were for and what corrective steps the facility took.
Resident council access for families
The facility has a Resident Council but no Family Council; ask how family members raise concerns and how the facility responds to those outside the resident council structure.
Current bed availability and waitlist
The facility is running at roughly 75% of its 112 licensed beds; ask whether the unit relevant to your parent's care level has open beds or an active waitlist.
