What health inspectors found (on-site government inspections — the most independent evidence available)
Health inspection rating: ★★☆☆☆2/5 · CMS overall rating: 1/5
The health inspection star above is graded on a curve within each state — a set share of each state's facilities gets each star level — so a facility can have few citations and still rate 2–3 stars if others in its state did even better. The overall rating combines that inspection score with staffing and self-reported quality measures.
Most serious findings (actual harm or immediate jeopardy)
▲ Actual harm, one-off · Oct 24, 2025 · F-0755 · triggered by a complaint
The facility did not provide pharmacy services that meet each resident's needs, or did not employ or contract with a licensed pharmacist.
Why it matters: Weak pharmacy services lead to medication mistakes, delays, and missed drug interactions that can seriously harm residents.
Severity (G): One or a few residents were actually harmed — physically or emotionally — though not put in immediate danger of serious injury or death.
Corrected: Dec 30, 2024 (Past Non-Compliance)
▲ Actual harm, one-off · May 1, 2024 · F-0689 · triggered by a complaint
The facility did not keep the environment free of accident hazards, or did not provide enough supervision to prevent accidents like falls.
Why it matters: This is one of the most common citations and directly relates to falls and injuries, which can be devastating for older adults.
Severity (G): One or a few residents were actually harmed — physically or emotionally — though not put in immediate danger of serious injury or death.
Corrected: May 5, 2024 (Deficient, Provider has date of correction)

| Nov 25, 2025 | D · Potential for harm, one-off | The facility did not create and follow a basic care plan covering a new resident's most immediate needs within 48 hours of admission. The first days are when a new resident is most vulnerable. · from a complaint |

Nurse staffing (from payroll records, adjusted for how much care residents need)
| Measure | This facility | Texas avg | U.S. avg | Where it stands |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Total nurse staffing (hours per resident per day) | 3.41 | 3.46 | 3.95 | top 42% in Texas; bottom 32% in the U.S. |
| Registered Nurse hours | 0.16 | 0.44 | 0.69 | bottom 3% in Texas; bottom 1% in the U.S. |

| Weekend RN hours (not acuity-adjusted) | 0.15 | 0.34 | 0.48 | bottom 9% in Texas; bottom 5% in the U.S. |
| Total nursing staff turnover (%) | 0.0 | 55.3 | 45.8 | — |
| RN turnover (%) | 0.0 | 54.6 | 42.9 | — |
Hours are per resident per day, case-mix adjusted by CMS so facilities caring for sicker residents can be compared fairly (same basis as the CMS staffing star). "Top X%" means better than most facilities: more staffing hours, or lower turnover. Raw (unadjusted) reported hours: total 3.39, RN 0.16, weekend 2.94. Staffing rating: 1/5.
Self-reported quality measures
