What the data says
CMS rates this facility 1 star on staffing — the bottom tier, shared by roughly 38% of Texas nursing homes. Each resident receives about 211 minutes of nursing care per day, approximately 30 minutes less than at a 4-star-staffing facility in Texas. Of those 211 minutes, only 18 involve a registered nurse. Residents here need more hands-on care than at a typical facility — more dependent or medically complex on average — so the same staffing hours stretch thinner than the raw minutes suggest.
Two administrators have left in the past year. Leadership turnover at that pace affects care coordination and staff stability in ways residents experience directly.
CMS has substantiated findings of resident abuse or neglect here within the past 36 months. The abuse icon on Care Compare reflects a confirmed finding, not an unresolved allegation.
Six CMS fines totaling $774,461 have been assessed against this facility. The Texas median across fined facilities is $20,699; roughly 30% of Texas nursing homes have no fines at all. This facility's total is more than 37 times the state median.

Questions to ask when you tour
Substantiated abuse findings
CMS has confirmed abuse or neglect findings here in the past 36 months — ask what happened, what corrective steps were taken, and how the facility monitors for recurrence.
Six fines totaling $774,461
Ask which specific deficiencies generated these fines and what changes were made to prevent the same violations from recurring.
Two administrators in one year
With two administrators departing in the past 12 months, ask who is currently in charge, how long they have been in the role, and whether the position is permanently filled.
Registered nurse coverage
Reported RN time here works out to about 18 minutes per resident per day — ask what hours an RN is physically on-site and who handles clinical decisions overnight.
Weekend staffing levels
Reported weekend nursing hours run lower than weekday figures — ask how many nursing staff are scheduled on a typical Saturday or Sunday and whether care plans change on weekends.
Resident Council activity
The facility has a Resident Council but no Family Council — ask how often the Resident Council meets and how family members can raise concerns outside of that structure.
