What the data says

CMS rates staffing here at 1 star. Each resident receives about 189 minutes of nursing care per day — roughly 52 minutes less than at a 4-star-staffing facility in Texas. Of those 189 minutes, only 15 are with a registered nurse. For context, a 4-star-staffing Texas facility averages 37 RN minutes per resident per day. About 38% of Texas nursing homes share this 1-star staffing rating.

Six CMS fines totaling $241,795 have been assessed against this facility. The state median for nursing homes that receive any fine at all is about $20,699 — this facility's total is roughly 12 times that figure. Approximately 30% of Texas nursing homes have received no fines at all.

The facility is operating at 69% of its 125 licensed beds, with an average of 86 residents on any given day. Low occupancy at a facility with multiple serious regulatory flags can reflect difficulty attracting new admissions.

Questions to ask when you tour

  1. Staffing levels on nights and weekends

    Weekend nursing hours here average 2.94 hours per resident per day — lower than the already-low weekday figure; ask how many nurses and aides are on duty overnight and on weekends.

  2. Six fines totaling $241,795

    CMS has levied six separate fines against this facility — ask what deficiencies triggered each fine and what specific changes were made in response.

  3. Registered nurse coverage each day

    Reported RN time runs about 15 minutes per resident per day; ask how many hours a registered nurse is physically present in the building on a typical day.

  4. Current census and admission trends

    The facility averages 86 residents against 125 licensed beds — ask whether occupancy has been rising or falling over the past 12 months and what is driving the current level.

  5. Licensee and management company relationship

    The licensee is Uvalde County Hospital Authority while day-to-day management is handled by a separate company; ask who makes staffing and care decisions and who residents or families contact when problems arise.

  6. Resident Council activity

    The facility has a Resident Council but no Family Council — ask how often the Resident Council meets, who attends from management, and how concerns raised there have been resolved.
