Questions to ask when you tour

1. 1

   Private pay and costs

   With zero Medicaid-designated beds, ask what happens if a resident's savings run out and whether any financial-assistance options exist through Hra Village, Inc.

2. 2

   What Type A licensing covers

   Texas Type A facilities serve residents who can evacuate without staff help — ask how care needs are reassessed if a resident's mobility or health declines.

3. 3

   Staffing at 14 beds

   A 14-bed home typically runs a small team; ask how many staff are on duty per shift and what happens when a staff member calls out.

4. 4

   Administrator availability

   Ask how often administrator Janice Johnston is on-site and who holds decision-making authority during evenings and weekends.

5. 5

   Bed availability and waitlist

   With only 14 licensed beds, ask how many are currently occupied and whether there is a waitlist or typical wait time for admission.
