What the data says
CMS rates staffing here at 3 stars. Each resident receives about 210 minutes of nursing care per day — roughly 31 minutes less than at a 4-star-staffing facility in Texas, which puts this facility in the bottom fifth of Texas nursing homes on staffing. Residents here also require more hands-on care than at a typical facility — more dependent or medically complex on average — so those 210 minutes stretch thinner than the number alone suggests.
Roughly 3 in 10 nursing staff left in the past year — below Texas's 25th-percentile cutoff, meaning retention is better than about three-quarters of nursing homes in the state. RN turnover is exceptionally low: about 1 in 10 registered nurses left in the same period.

Questions to ask when you tour
Staffing on nights and weekends
Weekend nursing hours average 3.07 per resident per day — lower than the weekday figure; ask how many nurses and aides are on each shift Saturday and Sunday.
How care plans account for heavier needs
CMS data shows residents here need more hands-on help than at a typical facility; ask how often care plans are reviewed and updated as needs change.
RN coverage across all shifts
Reported RN hours average about 18 minutes per resident per day; ask specifically which shifts have a registered nurse physically present in the building.
Resident and Family Council meetings
Both councils are listed as active — ask how often each meets, who attends from management, and how concerns raised there get resolved.
Management company's day-to-day role
The facility is licensed to Tyler County Hospital District but managed by Bv Continuing Care Center Ltd Co; ask which entity sets staffing levels and handles complaints.
