What the data says
CMS rates staffing here at 1 star — the bottom tier among Texas nursing homes, a group that represents about 38% of facilities in the state. Each resident receives roughly 176 minutes of nursing care per day, about 65 minutes less than at a 4-star-staffing facility in Texas. Residents here tend to need more hands-on care than at a typical facility — less mobile or more medically complex on average — so those 176 minutes stretch thinner than the raw number suggests.
About 6 in 10 nursing staff left in the past year, and 8 in 10 registered nurses turned over in the same period. At that pace, a long-stay resident will likely cycle through two or three primary caregivers over the course of a year.
Three CMS fines totaling $170,769 have been assessed. The Texas median fine across facilities that receive any fine at all is $20,699; this facility's total is more than eight times that figure. About 30% of Texas nursing homes have received no fines at all.
The facility is operating at roughly 70% of its licensed 93 beds, with about 65 residents on an average day. That occupancy sits alongside the other signals above rather than independently.

Questions to ask when you tour
Staffing levels on nights and weekends
Reported weekend nursing hours here run about 2.5 minutes per resident per hour — ask how many nurses and aides are on duty overnight and on weekends specifically.
Details behind the three fines
CMS has issued three fines totaling $170,769 since the facility's data window; ask what each citation was for and what corrective steps have been taken.
RN turnover and continuity of care
Eight in 10 registered nurses left in the past year — ask how the facility currently recruits and retains RNs and how care plans are handed off when staff change.
Current bed availability and waitlist
The facility is running at about 70% occupancy; ask whether that reflects a recent change in admissions pace or a longer-term pattern, and what is driving it.
Resident Council participation
The facility has a Resident Council but no Family Council — ask how families are kept informed of concerns raised in council meetings and how they can raise issues of their own.
Management company role day-to-day
The facility is licensed to a hospital district but managed by Golden Rehabilitation Center LLC — ask which entity makes staffing and care decisions at the building level.
