What the data says
CMS rates staffing here 1 star — the lowest tier, shared by roughly 38% of Texas nursing homes. Each resident receives about 200 minutes of total nursing care per day, approximately 41 minutes less than at a 4-star-staffing facility in Texas. Residents here need more hands-on care than at a typical facility — sicker, or less mobile on average — so those 200 minutes stretch thinner than the raw number suggests. RN coverage comes to about 28 minutes per resident per day, compared to 37 minutes at 4-star-staffing Texas facilities.
About 7 in 10 nursing staff left in the past year — well above the Texas median of 5 in 10 and the 75th-percentile cutoff of 6 in 10. For RNs specifically, roughly 9 in 10 turned over. A long-stay resident will likely cycle through multiple primary caregivers. That level of churn affects continuity in ways that daily staffing numbers alone don't capture.
CMS has substantiated findings of resident abuse or neglect at this facility within the past 36 months. This is distinct from an unverified complaint — it reflects a concluded regulatory finding.
Two CMS fines totaling $190,538 have been issued; the median fine total among Texas facilities that receive any fines at all is about $20,699, and roughly 30% of Texas nursing homes have received no fines. These two citations sum to nearly ten times the state median.
The facility is operating at roughly 55% of its 92 licensed beds — about 51 residents on an average day. That sits well below typical occupancy and coincides with the safety flags and staffing picture above.
CMS rates quality-of-care outcome measures 5 stars for long-stay residents — the highest tier. That rating reflects tracked clinical outcomes such as rates of pressure wounds, falls with injury, and decline in mobility, as reported to CMS.

Questions to ask when you tour
Substantiated abuse finding details
Ask what the substantiated abuse or neglect finding involved, when it occurred, and what specific policy or staffing changes followed the citation.
Nearly $191,000 in fines
Ask what the two CMS citations were for and what corrective actions have been completed, given that the combined fine total is roughly ten times the Texas median.
Seven in ten staff left last year
Ask how the facility is filling open nursing positions and how long the current direct-care staff have been in their roles, given a 73% annual turnover rate.
RN coverage each day
Ask how many registered nurse hours are scheduled per resident daily and whether an RN is on-site around the clock, given that reported RN time runs about 28 minutes per resident per day.
Occupancy at 55 percent
Ask why roughly half the licensed beds are currently unfilled, and whether that affects staffing levels or the range of activities and services available.
How 5-star outcomes are maintained
Ask how the care-planning process produces top-rated clinical outcomes while staffing and inspection ratings sit at 1 star — specifically, who reviews care plans and how often.
