Our read on Palo Pinto Nursing Center
Palo Pinto Nursing Center runs on 3.04 nurse hours per resident day, roughly a fifth below the national average, and weekends drop about 13% below what the home itself staffs on weekdays. Turnover sits at 45.6%, essentially the national rate, so the staffing shortfall isn't an exodus problem, it's how many hours the building puts on the floor. The inspection record shows 22 deficiencies, including two at the harm level and two tied to abuse, with a $41,036 fine and a survey completed in September 2025. The corporate owner operates it for profit across 106 certified beds. Families weighing this one against others nearby should ask how the weekend shifts are actually covered.
