What the data says

CMS rates staffing here at 3 stars. Each resident receives about 207 minutes of nursing care per day — roughly 34 minutes less than at a 4-star-staffing facility in Texas. About 19% of Texas nursing homes share this staffing rating.

Turnover among nursing staff is exceptionally low: roughly 2 in 10 nursing staff left in the past year, compared to a state median of about 5 in 10. This places the facility below Texas's 25th-percentile cutoff — better than about three-quarters of nursing homes in the state.

The facility is operating at roughly 42% of its 75 licensed beds — about 31 residents on a typical day. That is well below typical occupancy, and it coincides with staffing and quality-measure ratings that sit at 3 stars rather than the 4 stars the inspection record reflects.

Questions to ask when you tour

  1. Why occupancy is this low

    The facility runs at about 42% of its 75 licensed beds — ask what is driving that and whether it affects staffing levels or available services.

  2. Staffing on nights and weekends

    Weekend nursing hours average 2.9 hours per resident per day versus 3.5 on weekdays — ask how staffing is scheduled on evenings and weekends.

  3. Role of Post I Enterprises

    Day-to-day management sits with Post I Enterprises under a Hospital District license — ask how decisions about staffing and care are divided between the two entities.

  4. What the quality-measure rating reflects

    Health inspections rate 4 stars but quality measures rate 3 — ask which specific measures are below average and what the current care team is doing about them.

  5. Resident Council involvement

    The facility has a Resident Council but no Family Council — ask how families raise concerns or stay informed about a resident's care on an ongoing basis.
