This facility has areas of concern that warrant careful consideration. Registered Nurse hours are 40% of the EveryPlace reference benchmark; ask how RN coverage is allocated across shifts. The latest standard survey recorded 18 findings, above the TX average of 9.1. We recommend asking the administrator directly: "How are you addressing recent staffing shortfalls?" These are not reasons to panic, but they are reasons to ask tough questions and visit in person.
Nazareth Living Care Center is highly regarded by many families for its professional rehabilitation services and a clean, modern facility. While many reviewers praise the attentive nursing and therapy teams, there are serious, critical reports regarding medical equipment maintenance and instances of patient neglect. Families should prioritize verifying recent staffing levels and equipment safety protocols due to these specific high-severity concerns.

Key Review Excerpts
“I have returned to Nazareth time and time again. staff and therapy is delightful and helpful. i am fortunate to have come and get to experience there newly opened skilled wing.”
“Within 4 hours of being at the facility, we were en route back to the hospital for respiratory failure. Oxygen concentrator they provided was last serviced October of 2019 and was only producing purity of 75 % far below what’s considered medical grade.”
“My grandmother went in for 'rehabilitation' to help with her oxygen levels etc. She was fine when she first went in, she can't move on her own she has dementia as well. My mother had to be doing the nurses job. My grandmother would be dirty for hours and without water.”
Both RN and total nursing hours are below the EveryPlace reference benchmarks. Ask the facility how it staffs each shift for current resident needs.
Reference benchmarks (0.75 RN and 4.1 total nursing hours per resident/day) are comparison targets, not current federal minimum requirements.
