What the data says
CMS rates staffing here at 2 stars. Each resident receives about 214 minutes of nursing care per day — roughly 27 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 214 minutes stretch thinner than the raw number suggests. About 31% of Texas nursing homes share this staffing rating.
Three or more administrators have left in the past year. Administrative instability at that level tends to ripple into frontline care: policies shift, staff morale fluctuates, and continuity of leadership breaks down.
CMS has assessed 7 fines totaling $128,737 — more than six times the Texas median fine amount of $20,699, and a count that places this facility well above the 70% of Texas nursing homes that have received any fines at all.
CMS has flagged The Crescent as a Special Focus candidate — a step below outright Special Focus Facility designation, signaling a documented pattern of serious deficiencies over multiple inspection cycles. Facilities at this designation are under heightened regulatory scrutiny.
CMS has substantiated findings of resident abuse or neglect here within the past 36 months. This is a formal federal finding, not an allegation.
The facility's quality-of-care measures rate 5 stars — both long-stay and short-stay outcomes. That rating reflects tracked clinical outcomes such as rates of pressure wounds, falls, and medication management, and sits alongside the inspection and staffing ratings above.
