What the data says
CMS rates staffing here at 2 stars — the bottom third of Texas nursing homes on this measure. Each resident receives about 185 minutes of nursing care per day, roughly 56 minutes less than at a 4-star-staffing facility in Texas. Of that, only about 13 minutes come from a registered nurse, compared to 37 minutes at the 4-star threshold in Texas.
Two administrators have left in the past year. Leadership turnover at that rate tends to affect scheduling, staff morale, and the consistency of care routines that residents rely on day to day.
The facility is running at about 49% of its 95 licensed beds — roughly 47 residents on an average day. That level of vacancy in a nursing home with other active signals in this record is a fact worth probing when you visit.

Questions to ask when you tour
Who is currently in charge
Two administrators have left in the past year — ask who is leading the facility now, how long they have been in the role, and whether they plan to stay.
Registered nurse coverage each day
CMS data shows about 13 minutes of RN time per resident per day; ask how many hours a registered nurse is on-site and whether an RN is present on nights and weekends.
Why so many beds are empty
Roughly half the facility's 95 beds are unoccupied on a typical day — ask what is driving that and whether it affects staffing levels or available services.
Staffing plan on weekends
CMS reports weekend nursing hours below the already-low weekday figure; ask how the weekend schedule compares to weekdays and who covers when agency staff are needed.
How the Resident Council works
The facility has a Resident Council but no Family Council; ask how family members raise concerns and who responds when residents report problems to the council.
