What the data says
CMS rates staffing here at 2 stars. Each resident receives about 194 minutes of nursing care per day — roughly 47 minutes less than at a 4-star-staffing facility in Texas. Residents here also tend to need more hands-on daily care than at a typical facility, which means those 194 minutes stretch thinner in practice than the number alone suggests.
Two CMS fines have totaled $120,403. The state median for fined facilities in Texas is about $20,699, and roughly 30% of Texas nursing homes have no fines at all — so both the count and the dollar amount here sit well above the typical range.
About 4 in 10 nursing staff left in the past year — below Texas's 25th-percentile cutoff, meaning turnover is better than roughly three-quarters of nursing homes in the state. RN turnover is exceptionally low at 2 in 10 departures annually, which is among the lowest in Texas.
The facility is running at about 66% of its 120 licensed beds, with roughly 79 residents on an average day. This level of vacancy, alongside the fine history and staffing rating, is a combination worth examining directly with the facility.

Questions to ask when you tour
What triggered the two fines
CMS has issued two fines totaling $120,403 — ask what deficiencies caused each citation and what specific corrective steps have been completed.
Why occupancy is at 66%
The facility averages about 79 residents in 120 licensed beds — ask whether the vacancy reflects admissions choices, recent closures of units, or something else.
Staffing on nights and weekends
Reported weekend nursing hours are 2.75 minutes per resident lower than weekday figures — ask how many nurses and aides are on duty overnight and on Saturdays and Sundays.
How care plans are reviewed
Quality-measure ratings are 2 stars for long-stay residents despite relatively low staff turnover — ask how often care plans are updated and who leads those reviews.
Role of the county as licensee
The license is held by Chambers County while day-to-day operations run through Winnie I Enterprises, LLC — ask how oversight responsibilities are divided between the two.
Resident Council access and meetings
The facility has a Resident Council but no Family Council — ask how often the council meets and how families receive information from those meetings.
