What the data says
CMS rates staffing here at 1 star — the lowest tier, shared by about 38% of Texas nursing homes. Each resident receives roughly 165 minutes of nursing care per day, about 76 minutes less than at a 4-star-staffing facility in Texas. Registered nurse coverage runs approximately 24 minutes per resident per day, compared to 37 minutes at the 4-star threshold. Residents here also require more hands-on care than at a typical facility — less mobile or more medically complex on average — so those 165 minutes stretch thinner than the raw number suggests.
The quality-measures rating is 1 star overall, with short-stay outcomes rated 1 star and long-stay outcomes rated 2 stars. These ratings reflect how residents fare on tracked health outcomes — things like pain management, pressure wounds, and functional decline — relative to other Texas nursing homes.
One CMS fine totaling $8,018 has been issued. The state median fine among facilities that receive any fine is $20,699, and about 30% of Texas nursing homes have received no fines at all.

Questions to ask when you tour
Staffing levels on nights and weekends
Weekend nursing hours average 2.5 per resident per day here — ask how many nurses and aides are on duty overnight and on weekends specifically.
Registered nurse presence on-site
Reported RN coverage averages about 24 minutes per resident per day; ask whether a registered nurse is physically present around the clock or only on call.
How care plans are reviewed
With 1-star quality-measures scores, ask how often care plans are updated and who leads the review when a resident's condition changes.
Resident Council activity
A Resident Council exists but no Family Council; ask how often the Resident Council meets and how family members can raise concerns without one.
Management company's role day-to-day
The facility is licensed to a hospital district but managed by Johnson5 LLC; ask which entity makes staffing and budget decisions at this location.
Current waitlist for beds
With 72 of 84 beds filled on an average day, ask whether the unit a resident would enter has any immediate openings or a waitlist.
