No Medicare penalties on record
This facility has areas of concern that warrant careful consideration. Registered Nurse hours are 38% of the EveryPlace reference benchmark; ask how RN coverage is allocated across shifts. The latest standard survey recorded 36 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.
Families considering Parklane West should be aware of a significant divide in experiences: while many praise the professionalism of the business office (specifically Tammy Howard) and the dedication of certain nursing staff like Oscar Lozano, there are frequent, serious allegations of neglect, including improper medication management and hygiene issues. While the rehabilitation therapy team is often cited as a major strength, recurring complaints regarding understaffing and facility maintenance are prevalent.

Key Review Excerpts
“Tammy Howard has been amazing with guiding us through Medicaid application. Has made things seamless. Not sure how we would have gotten through this.”
“My father-in-law was released yesterday to come home and he has numerous bed sores, he was caked with dried feces and he had the smell of being rotten.”
“The rehabilitation team is top tier. :)”
Both RN and total nursing hours are below the EveryPlace reference benchmarks. Ask the facility how it staffs each shift for current resident needs.

Some summaries, interpretations, suggested questions, and pricing research are AI-generated or AI-assisted and may contain errors or omit important context. Listings do not constitute endorsement, recommendation, or advertisement, and we do not accept payment for placement. Families should verify all details directly with the facility and the original sources linked above before making any care decisions.
