What the data says

CMS rates staffing here at 4 stars — roughly the top 9% of Texas nursing homes on staffing. Each resident receives about 192 minutes of nursing care per day. Staff hours per resident exceed what a typical resident mix would require, meaning the raw minutes stretch further than at a facility whose residents need more intensive hands-on care.

About 4 in 10 nursing staff left in the past year. That figure sits below Texas's 25th-percentile cutoff — better than roughly three-quarters of nursing homes in the state on staff retention.

Two CMS fines totaling $164,407 have been assessed. The Texas median for fined facilities is about $20,699, and 30% of Texas nursing homes have no fines at all. These two fines run nearly eight times the state median in total dollars.

The facility is operating at roughly 28% of its 98 licensed beds — about 28 residents on an average day. That gap between licensed capacity and actual census is large. High staffing and low turnover scores look different when spread across fewer than 30 residents than they would at a facility running near full.

Questions to ask when you tour

  1. Reason for the two large fines

    Two CMS fines totaled $164,407 — ask what deficiencies triggered them and what corrective steps were taken.

  2. Why occupancy is so low

    With roughly 28 residents in a 98-bed building, ask whether the low census reflects a planned transition, referral changes, or something else.

  3. Health inspection deficiency details

    The health-inspection rating is 2 stars while other ratings are higher — ask which specific deficiencies drove that score down.

  4. Management company's operating role

    The licensed owner is a hospital district, but day-to-day operations are managed by 610 Deshong Dr Opco LLC — ask how decisions are made between the two entities.

  5. Staffing levels if census grows

    Current staffing minutes are calculated on about 28 residents; ask how staffing would be adjusted if occupancy increased toward full capacity.
