What the data says
CMS rates staffing here at 3 stars. Each resident receives about 192 minutes of nursing care per day — roughly 49 minutes less than at a 4-star-staffing facility in Texas. About 19% of Texas nursing homes share this staffing rating.
Nursing staff turnover is exceptionally low: roughly 3 in 10 nursing staff left in the past year, below the Texas 25th-percentile cutoff of 42% — better than about three-quarters of nursing homes in the state. For a long-stay resident, that means fewer changes in the people providing daily care.
One administrator has turned over in the past year. This is elevated but not the same as repeated leadership instability; it is one departure.
The facility had one CMS fine totaling $8,018. The median fine among Texas nursing homes that received any fine at all is $20,699, and about 30% of Texas facilities had no fines in this period.
Average daily occupancy runs at about 59% of licensed beds — 39 residents in a 66-bed building. Paired with the other signals above, this is a figure worth understanding when you visit.
