This home is ranked 202nd out of 237 homes in Texas.| Staff type | Hours / Day / Resident | vs state avg |
|---|---|---|
|
Registered Nurse (RN)
RNs hold the highest nursing license and can assess residents, interpret test results, and direct care plans. More RN hours per day often signals stronger clinical oversight and faster response to health changes.
|
18m per day | ▼ 31% State avg: 26m per day · National avg: 41m per day |
|
LPN / LVN
Licensed Practical Nurses (LPNs) or Licensed Vocational Nurses (LVNs) deliver routine hands-on care — medication administration, wound dressing, and monitoring vital signs. They work under RN supervision and make up a large share of daily bedside care.
|
53m per day | ▼ 7% State avg: 57m per day · National avg: 52m per day |
|
Nurse Aide
Certified Nurse Aides (CNAs) provide the most direct day-to-day assistance: bathing, dressing, feeding, and mobility. Nurse aide hours are typically the largest staffing category and directly affect residents' quality of life.
|
1h 57m per day | ▼ 3% State avg: 2h 1m per day · National avg: 2h 21m per day |
|
Total Nursing (Weekend)
Combined nursing hours (RN + LPN + Nurse Aide) per resident per day on weekends. Staffing often drops on weekends — this figure reveals whether the facility maintains adequate coverage outside of weekday hours.
|
2h 33m per day | ▼ 15% State avg: 2h 59m per day · National avg: 3h 26m per day |
|
Physical Therapist
Hours per resident per day provided by licensed Physical Therapists (PTs) or PT Assistants. PT services help residents recover mobility after injury or illness and are especially important for post-acute (short-stay) rehabilitation.
|
2m per day | ▼ 50% State avg: 4m per day · National avg: 4m per day |
|
RN (Weekend)
Registered nurse hours specifically on weekends. Facilities sometimes reduce RN presence on Saturdays and Sundays — a low weekend RN figure compared to weekday hours can indicate reduced clinical oversight when most administrative staff are absent.
|
11m per day | ▼ 48% State avg: 21m per day · National avg: 29m per day |

An editor-reviewed summary of the themes and findings across this facility's recent inspection reports.
The most recent inspection on August 29, 2025, identified deficiencies related to neglect and failure to provide appropriate neurological care following a resident’s unwitnessed fall that resulted in a fatal brain injury. Earlier inspections showed a pattern of issues including care planning, medication and respiratory care, food storage and safety, and resident rights such as consent for medications and supervision related to smoking. Complaint investigations substantiated failures in documentation, reporting, and investigation of abuse and neglect allegations, but fines or license actions were not listed in the available reports. The facility implemented corrective actions such as staff suspensions and in-services after the most recent findings. The inspection history shows ongoing challenges with resident care and safety, with the most recent inspection reflecting serious concerns not previously seen at this level.
