A citation means an inspector found a rule wasn't met at the time of the visit; many are corrected the same day. Read the official record for details.
Below is every visit in the state's files from March 25, 2022 to March 24, 2026, newest first: 12 visits and 1 citation in all, so the totals can be higher than the 3-year counts above. An investigation is a visit to look into a report or complaint; many find no citations. Risk level is the level Texas HHSC assigns to each rule, from low to high, as published. Technical assistance means the inspector gave guidance on the rule. The state's file does not say whether the "correct-by" date is a deadline or the day the problem was fixed, so it can fall after the verified date or in the future.

Inspector's notes (as published)
A caregiver utilized corporal punishment in response to a child's behavior during a disciplinary incident at the facility. The caregiver responsible was terminated for her actions. The director has required all remaining operation staff to take refresher trainings on positive guidance/discipline along with reviewing the operation's formal disciplinary policies which do not allow the use of corporal punishment in any form.
