What the data says

CMS rates staffing here 1 star — the lowest tier, shared by about 38% of Texas nursing homes. Each resident receives roughly 161 minutes of nursing care per day, about 80 minutes less than at a 4-star-staffing facility in Texas. Residents here need more hands-on care than at a typical facility — sicker or less mobile on average — so those 161 minutes stretch thinner than the raw number suggests. Registered nurse presence is particularly limited at approximately 5 minutes per resident per day, compared to 37 minutes at a 4-star-staffing facility in Texas.

Registered nurse turnover is effectively total: all 10 in 10 RNs left in the past year. A long-stay resident will likely cycle through multiple primary RN caregivers over the course of a year, with continuity of care dependent largely on non-RN nursing staff.

The facility has received 3 CMS fines totaling $39,971. The state median for fined facilities in Texas is about $20,700, placing this facility's fine total above the midpoint among penalized homes. About 30% of Texas nursing homes have no fines at all.

Questions to ask when you tour

  1. Staffing levels on nights and weekends

    With 161 daily nursing minutes per resident on paper, ask specifically how many nurses and aides are on the floor during overnight and weekend shifts.

  2. RN continuity for your family member

    Every registered nurse on staff left in the past year — ask who the current RNs are, how long they have been here, and how care plans are handed off when staff change.

  3. What the three CMS fines covered

    Three fines totaling roughly $40,000 were issued — ask what each citation was for and what specific changes were made in response.

  4. How resident concerns are raised

    The facility has a Resident Council but no Family Council — ask how family members formally raise concerns and who responds to them.

  5. Current bed availability and waitlist

    With 93 of 119 beds occupied, ask whether the beds relevant to your family member's care needs are currently open or have a waitlist.

  6. Management company's role day to day

    Summit LTC Management LLC operates this facility — ask what decisions are made at the facility level versus by the management company, and how quickly local leadership can act.
