What the data says
CMS rates this facility 1 star on staffing — the bottom tier, shared by about 38% of Texas nursing homes. Each resident receives roughly 196 minutes of total nursing care per day, about 45 minutes less than at a 4-star-staffing facility in Texas. The registered nurse figure is particularly low at 9 minutes per resident per day, compared to 37 minutes at a 4-star-staffing Texas facility. Residents here require more hands-on care than at a typical facility — they tend to be sicker or less mobile on average — so the same staffing hours are stretched thinner than the raw numbers already suggest.
Three CMS fines totaling $71,122 have been assessed against this facility. Texas nursing homes have a median fine total of $20,699 among those that have been fined at all, and about 30% of facilities in the state have no fines on record; this facility's total runs more than three times the state median.
At 97% of its 123 licensed beds filled, this facility is effectively at capacity. Families should expect a waitlist and confirm bed availability before making plans around this location.
Despite the staffing and fine record, CMS rates quality-of-care outcome measures at 5 stars overall — the top tier — with a 5-star long-stay rating and a 4-star short-stay rating. These scores reflect measurable resident outcomes such as rates of falls, pressure wounds, and hospital readmissions. A low-staffing, high-outcome pairing like this is uncommon; it may reflect efficient care coordination, a particular resident mix, or reporting patterns — the record doesn't explain it.

Questions to ask when you tour
Registered nurse coverage each day
CMS data shows only 9 minutes of RN time per resident per day — ask how many registered nurses are on duty per shift and whether that coverage is consistent on nights and weekends.
What the three fines were for
Three CMS fines totaling $71,122 have been assessed — ask staff to walk you through what each citation involved and what changes followed.
Waitlist and admission timeline
The facility is running at 97% capacity, so ask directly whether there is a waitlist and what the typical wait has been in recent months.
How outcomes stay high despite low staffing
Quality-of-care outcome measures rate 5 stars while staffing rates 1 star — ask how care is coordinated and monitored given the nursing hours available.
Resident Council access and frequency
A Resident Council meets here but no Family Council exists — ask how family members can raise concerns or get updates between visits.
Management company's role day to day
The licensed owner is a hospital district, but daily operations are run by Pharr Skilled Nursing LLC — ask which entity makes staffing and care decisions and who to contact with problems.
