What the data says

CMS rates staffing here at 1 star on staffing — the bottom tier, shared by about 38% of Texas nursing homes. Nursing care hours per resident per day are not publicly reported for this facility, so a direct minute-count comparison to the 4-star Texas threshold of 241 minutes isn't possible from the available data.

One administrator has left in the past year. A change at the top of a facility's management can affect scheduling, staffing decisions, and how quickly resident concerns get addressed.

Three CMS fines totaling $60,212 have been issued. The Texas median for fined facilities is about $20,699 — this facility's total is roughly three times that figure. About 30% of Texas nursing homes have received no fines at all.

The facility is operating at approximately 35% of its 89 licensed beds, with about 31 residents on a given day. Low occupancy at a nursing home can affect staffing schedules, programming, and the financial stability of operations.

Questions to ask when you tour

  1. Current administrator tenure

    One administrator has left in the past year — ask how long the current administrator has been in the role and whether leadership changes are expected.

  2. Staffing levels on nights and weekends

    With a 1-star CMS staffing rating, ask specifically how many nursing staff are on duty per shift, including overnight and weekend coverage.

  3. The three CMS fines

    Three fines totaling $60,212 have been issued — ask what deficiencies triggered each fine and what corrective steps were taken.

  4. Why occupancy is low

    About 31 of 89 beds are filled — ask whether that reflects a planned census target, recent admissions stops, or other factors affecting operations.

  5. Staffing hours per resident

    Daily nursing hours per resident aren't publicly reported for this facility — ask for the current staffing ratio by shift so you can compare it yourself.

  6. Family Council availability

    State records show a Resident Council but no Family Council — ask whether families have a formal channel to raise concerns and how often it meets.
