CMS's most recent Care Compare release (data as of April 2026) scores Parkwood in the Pines on three sub-ratings that roll up into the overall star: health inspection, staffing, and quality measures. Each is charted against the Texas average below.

What each sub-rating measures

Size and setting

Located in Lufkin, Texas. Bed capacity and average daily census, where CMS reports them, are in Facility details below. Its ownership type, listed in Facility details, can influence staffing patterns, reinvestment decisions, and admissions policy. At roughly 71% occupancy, this facility has meaningful open capacity relative to its certified bed count.

Same-ownership peers

Within Texas, Parkwood in the Pines is one of 413 for profit - corporation nursing homes CMS rates. Its 2-star overall rating sits below the for profit - corporation-segment average of 2.8 stars, ahead of roughly 19% of same-ownership peers in the state. Peer comparisons within the same ownership type are more apples-to-apples than a state-wide average, since for-profit, non-profit, and government operators tend to differ systematically in staffing and reinvestment.

CMS has levied enforcement penalties - civil money penalties or denials of payment, during the same window. This is a high deficiency count relative to most facilities; requesting the full survey report directly is the only way to see whether these are concentrated in one area or spread across the facility's operations.

Where these figures come from
