What the data says
CMS rates staffing here at 1 star — the bottom tier, shared by about 38% of Texas nursing homes. Each resident receives roughly 194 minutes of nursing care per day, about 47 minutes less than at a 4-star-staffing facility in Texas. Residents here also require more hands-on care than at a typical facility — more dependent or medically complex on average — so those 194 minutes stretch thinner than they would elsewhere.
Two or more administrators have turned over in the past year. That level of leadership instability reaches residents through shifting care priorities, staff uncertainty, and breaks in institutional memory.
Four CMS fines total $236,732 — more than eleven times the Texas median fine amount of $20,699. Roughly 30% of Texas nursing homes received no fines at all in this period.
The facility is running at about 50% of its 174 licensed beds, with an average of 87 residents on any given day. Paired with the staffing, inspection, and fine record above, that occupancy level reflects conditions worth examining closely.

Questions to ask when you tour
Current administrator and tenure
Two administrators left in the past year — ask who is currently in the role, when they started, and what changes they have made since arriving.
What the four fines covered
Four federal fines totaling $236,732 were assessed — ask what each citation involved and what specific steps were taken to correct those deficiencies.
Staffing levels on evenings and weekends
CMS rates staffing at 1 star and weekend hours log below the weekly average — ask how many nursing staff are on the floor on a typical Saturday night shift.
Why half the beds are empty
The facility averages about 87 residents against 174 licensed beds — ask what is driving the low census and whether any units or wings are currently closed.
Resident Council meeting frequency
A Resident Council is listed but no Family Council — ask how often the Resident Council meets and how concerns raised there are formally tracked and answered.
Management company role in daily care
The licensed owner is a hospital district, but day-to-day operations run through San Marcos Healthcare LLC — ask which entity sets staffing levels and handles complaint response.
