What the data says
CMS rates staffing here at 4 stars, putting this facility in roughly the top 9% of Texas nursing homes on that measure. Residents receive about 225 minutes of nursing care per day — below the 241-minute threshold for a 4-star staffing facility in Texas, but still well above the 186-minute floor for a 1-star facility. RN coverage runs about 55 minutes per resident per day, above Texas's 37-minute 4-star cutoff.
One CMS fine totaling $39,764 is on record. For context, about 30% of Texas nursing homes have received no fines at all, and the state's median fine amount is $20,699 — this single fine runs roughly double that median.
