What each sub-rating measures

The staffing rating compares case-mix-adjusted nurse hours per resident day to national benchmarks, and quality measures aggregate 15 clinical indicators including pressure ulcers, falls with injury, and long-stay antipsychotic use.

Its ownership type, listed in Facility details, can influence staffing patterns, reinvestment decisions, and admissions policy. At roughly 61% occupancy, this facility has meaningful open capacity relative to its certified bed count.
Same-ownership peers
Within Texas, San Saba Nursing & Rehabilitation is one of 413 for profit - corporation nursing homes CMS rates. Its 5-star overall rating sits above the for profit - corporation-segment average of 2.8 stars, ahead of roughly 89% of same-ownership peers in the state.
