VILLA TOSCANA AT CYPRESS WOODS
Within standard 12-15 month inspection cycle. Federal law requires annual inspections.
Villa Toscana at Cypress Woods has a Trust Grade of F, indicating significant concerns about the quality of care provided. With a state rank of #881 out of 1168 Texas facilities, they fall in the bottom half, and at #72 out of 95 in Harris County, only a few local options are better. The facility is experiencing a worsening trend, with issues increasing from 5 in 2024 to 8 in 2025, signaling growing problems. Staffing is rated at 2 out of 5 stars with a turnover rate of 46%, which is slightly better than the state average but still indicates instability among staff. Additionally, the facility has incurred $37,827 in fines, which is concerning, and while RN coverage is average, it is crucial for addressing potential issues. Specific incidents include a resident suffering a femur fracture due to inadequate assistance during a transfer and two residents eloping from the memory care unit due to insufficient supervision, highlighting serious safety risks that families should consider. Overall, while the facility has some strengths, such as lower staff turnover, the numerous critical incidents and poor trust grade suggest families should proceed with caution.
