What the data says
CMS rates staffing here at 2 stars — the bottom third of Texas nursing homes on this measure. Each resident receives about 205 minutes of nursing care per day, roughly 36 minutes less than at a 4-star-staffing facility in Texas. Of that, approximately 24 minutes comes from a registered nurse. One administrator has turned over in the past year, which places this facility at an elevated level for that metric; administrative transitions can affect care continuity and institutional knowledge.
The facility had one CMS fine totaling $8,018. The state median fine amount among penalized Texas nursing homes is about $20,699, and roughly 30% of Texas nursing homes have no fines at all.
The facility is running at roughly 40% of its 82 licensed beds — about 33 residents on an average day. That is well below typical occupancy for a nursing home of this size.

Questions to ask when you tour
Staffing coverage on nights and weekends
With a 2-star staffing rating and weekend nursing hours at 3.0 per resident per day, ask how many nurses and aides are on duty overnight and on Saturdays and Sundays.
Registered nurse presence daily
CMS data shows about 24 minutes of RN time per resident per day — ask whether a registered nurse is on site around the clock or only during certain shifts.
Administrator transition and current leadership
One administrator has left in the past year; ask how long the current administrator, Alton Ward, has been in the role and what changes have followed the transition.
Why occupancy is low
The facility is using about 33 of its 82 beds; ask whether that reflects a planned reduction, a service change, or difficulty attracting residents.
Ownership and management structure
The licensed owner is Dewitt Medical District, a hospital district, while day-to-day management sits with Diversicare Yorktown LLC — ask how decisions about staffing and care are divided between those two entities.
