In Lubbock
How to read this table: "Overall" is the CMS star rating, which combines inspections, staffing, and quality measures from resident assessments and claims; "Inspection" is the on-site health inspection rating — the most independent signal, and the one CMS grades on a curve against other facilities in the same state. Flags are federal abuse citations and Special Focus status.

All bars start at zero. Exact values and supporting details remain below.

Weekend staffing is lower than the all-week figure at 14 of these 14. Ask how weekend coverage and response times are maintained. This difference alone does not establish unsafe care.

- Can the facility accept your payment arrangement? 13 of 14 facilities here are listed with Medicaid certification. Certification does not establish an available bed, your eligibility or the amount you will owe. Confirm directly and request an itemized written quote.
