How to read BIG SPRING CENTER FOR SKILLED CARE's star rating
The CMS overall star rating for BIG SPRING CENTER FOR SKILLED CARE is a composite of three separately measured domains: health inspection results from state survey teams, staffing levels reported through payroll-based journal data, and clinical quality measures drawn from resident assessments and Medicare claims. A 3-star overall rating means BIG SPRING CENTER FOR SKILLED CARE performs around the national middle. Average overall scores usually come from uneven domain results rather than uniform middling performance, so the domain detail matters more than the headline number.
For BIG SPRING CENTER FOR SKILLED CARE, CMS currently publishes 3 out of 5 for health inspections, 2 out of 5 for staffing, 3 out of 5 for quality measures. Health inspection scores are graded on a curve within each state, so this facility's inspection score is a ranking against other Texas providers rather than an absolute measure. Staffing scores reflect reported nurse hours per resident day, and quality-measure scores reflect resident outcomes such as falls, pressure ulcers and hospital readmissions.
In local context: 3 rated facilities in Big Spring average 3.7 out of 5, and the Texas average is 2.8. BIG SPRING CENTER FOR SKILLED CARE rates 3 out of 5, below that benchmark. Comparing a facility against its own local market matters because inspection severity, Medicaid reimbursement rates and staffing supply all vary sharply by state.
What BIG SPRING CENTER FOR SKILLED CARE's inspection record shows
No deficiency citations for BIG SPRING CENTER FOR SKILLED CARE appear in the CMS extract this page is built from. That reflects the records CMS has published for this provider, not an inspection performed by Clear Care Connect, and the federal extract can lag a state survey by several months.
Before you rely on a clean record, ask BIG SPRING CENTER FOR SKILLED CARE for the date of its most recent standard survey and for its current CMS Form 2567. Also ask the Texas survey agency whether any complaint investigations are open, as complaint surveys are logged separately from the standard annual survey cycle.
What nursing home costs near Big Spring, Texas
Texas nursing home typically runs $3,500 to $5,800 per month, a midpoint of roughly $4,650 — about $55,800 a year. This is a state-level market estimate from published rate data for this care type, not a quote from BIG SPRING CENTER FOR SKILLED CARE, and it is the single figure on this page that is modelled rather than reported.
Actual pricing at BIG SPRING CENTER FOR SKILLED CARE depends on room type, whether the community charges a flat all-inclusive rate or a base rate plus tiered care levels, and one-time community or entrance fees. For skilled nursing, Medicare may cover a limited post-hospital stay in full for the first 20 days and partially through day 100 when the stay qualifies; long-term custodial care is generally paid privately or through Medicaid once assets are spent down.
When you call BIG SPRING CENTER FOR SKILLED CARE, ask for the total monthly figure at the care level being recommended — not the base rate — plus the schedule of annual increases over the last three years and what triggers a move to a higher care tier.
