    Long-term resident praises caring staff

    I've lived here 18 years and receive excellent, very caring care - the staff are highly involved and regularly go out of their way to help residents and families. I'm extremely satisfied and would highly recommend this place. One caveat: although advertised as a skilled facility, they don't seem to accept long-term/skilled patients, so check availability if that's what you need.

    Summary review

    Overall sentiment in the reviews is strongly positive from people with direct experience: reviewers consistently praise the quality of care and the staff. Multiple comments describe the care as excellent and the staff as highly involved, caring, and willing to go out of their way to help both residents and families. One reviewer reports an 18-year residency with extreme satisfaction, which indicates a long-term, stable positive relationship between that resident and the facility. Shorter summaries also note nice staff and explicit recommendations, reinforcing a pattern of strong, person-centered caregiving for those who are or have been residents.

    Staff performance and family engagement are the clearest strengths across the reviews. Specific themes include staff being highly involved with residents, proactive assistance to families, and a genuinely caring attitude. These comments suggest consistent, attentive caregiving and good communication with families for the residents represented in the feedback. The repeated use of words like "highly involved," "going out of their way," and "very caring" point to a culture of hands-on, supportive staff behavior as a defining feature of the facility experience for reviewers.

    Conversely, the most notable concern across the summaries concerns admissions and operational status. Several review notes indicate the facility is not accepting patients and will not take long-term patients despite being advertised as a skilled facility. One reviewer even expresses doubt that the facility currently has any patients. These comments raise questions about availability, the facility's current operating census, and whether the services described in advertising (for example, skilled nursing care) are being offered or are accessible to prospective residents seeking long-term placement.

    There is little to no information in the provided reviews about other important areas such as the physical facilities, dining quality, activities and programming, or management responsiveness beyond the frontline staff. Because those topics are not mentioned, no conclusions can be drawn from these summaries about the built environment, meal service, social programming, or administrative operations. For prospective residents or family members, the main takeaways are: (1) the experienced residents and families who reported on the facility praise the quality of care and the staff strongly, and (2) verify current admissions status and service availability before proceeding, since reviewers report discrepancies between advertising and actual admissions practices. I recommend contacting the facility directly to confirm whether they are currently accepting new or long-term patients, to ask about the specific skilled services offered, and to request a tour or recent census/operational update to resolve the admission/availability concerns noted by reviewers.

    About Permian Residential Care Center

    Permian Residential Care Center sits outside of a hospital setting and is run by the county government. The facility has 112 certified beds and provides an intermediate level of care, which works for people who can't safely live on their own but don't yet need round-the-clock skilled nursing care like a nursing home would offer. Residents get help with daily tasks such as bathing, dressing, and meals, and the center offers therapy services including occupational, physical, and speech therapy, along with social services and organized activities for residents. There's medical, dental, and nursing care on site, along with experienced staff such as registered nurses, medical directors, occupational therapists, and speech-language pathologists, who provide 24/7 medical supervision. The center's designed to care for people with chronic illnesses or those who need extra help after surgery, and there are options for specialized care, including for people with Alzheimer's or dementia, as well as hospice care and memory care. Rooms come in both private and semi-private suites that are described as comfortable and spacious, and there's complimentary Wi-Fi, nutritious meals, transportation to doctor visits, and a beauty and barber shop. While the facility's government-owned and operated, it accepts Medicare, Medicaid, private insurance, and private pay. The center doesn't have a Continuing Care Retirement Community program and doesn't offer a Resident Council, but there's a Family Council in place. Its inspection and quality ratings are high, marking A+ grades in health reviews with very few or no deficiencies, and past inspection history shows no major problems or substantiated complaints. Care at the facility is described as comprehensive, with attention given to the medical, physical, and social needs of residents for both long-term and short-term stays, and staff focus on a compassionate and team-based approach to well-being.
