Questions to ask when you tour

1. 1

   Current occupancy and availability

   With only 10 licensed beds, ask how many are currently occupied and whether there is a waitlist.

2. 2

   Services covered under Type A

   Texas Type A licenses cover residents who can evacuate independently — ask which specific personal-care services are included and what falls outside the license.

3. 3

   Staffing on nights and weekends

   As a 10-bed sole-proprietor home, ask how many staff are on duty overnight and on weekends, and how after-hours emergencies are handled.

4. 4

   Owner involvement in daily care

   Ladonna Berry is both licensee and administrator — ask how much of her time is spent on-site providing or supervising hands-on care.

5. 5

   Handling of increased care needs

   Ask at what point a resident's needs would exceed what a Type A license permits, and what the discharge or transfer process looks like.
