What the data says
CMS rates staffing here at 2 stars — about 225 minutes of nursing care per resident per day, roughly 16 minutes less than at a 4-star-staffing facility in Texas. That puts this facility among the bottom third of Texas nursing homes on staffing: about 32% of facilities in the state share this rating tier. On quality measures, CMS rates long-stay outcomes at 5 stars — the top tier — while short-stay outcomes rate 3 stars. Those two numbers move independently: long-stay ratings reflect how residents who live here full-time are doing over time; short-stay ratings reflect people recovering from a hospitalization or procedure. One CMS fine of $15,757 is on record. The state median fine among facilities that have any fine at all is about $20,699, and roughly 30% of Texas nursing homes have no fines at all. The facility is running at about 70% occupancy — 91 residents in 130 licensed beds. That level of vacancy is lower than typical; paired with the 2-star staffing rating, it is a concrete detail to ask about directly.

Questions to ask when you tour
Staffing levels on weekends
CMS data shows weekend nursing hours averaging about 2.77 hours per resident per day — ask how weekend staffing compares to weekday coverage and whether care routines change.
Why occupancy sits at 70%
With roughly 40 beds unoccupied on an average day, ask whether the vacancy reflects a recent census decline, referral slowdowns, or planned capacity changes.
RN presence during a typical shift
Reported RN hours come to about 20 minutes per resident per day — ask which shifts have a registered nurse on-site and when a charge nurse covers instead.
Long-stay quality outcomes in practice
CMS rates long-stay quality measures at 5 stars; ask which specific outcomes — such as pressure injuries, falls, or medication use — drive that rating so you can compare to your parent's needs.
The 2023 fine and what changed
A $15,757 CMS fine is on record; ask what the cited deficiency was, how the facility responded, and what monitoring is in place now.
Resident Council participation
The facility has a Resident Council but no Family Council; ask how family members currently raise concerns and whether a family forum is planned.
