Texas gives every licensing standard one of five risk levels, from low to high, by how likely a deficiency is to harm a child.

A repeated citation can merit attention, but context and corrective action must be reviewed before drawing a conclusion.

1. 1

   HHSC inspectors cited 745.641 in January 2022, August 2022, February 2025 and January 2026. The agency describes it this way: AP Background check results - Must receive notification prior to allowing subject to be present at your operation. The most serious of these was recorded at high risk. Each citation has a recorded correction, and a repeat after correction is worth a direct question.

Bring these to the tour. Each one comes from something in the record; the reason is under the question.

1. 01

   What changed after 745.641 was cited, and how do you check it now?

   Citation 745.641: cited in four visits, including high-risk standards.

2. 02

   What changed after 746.1205(a)(2) was cited, and how do you check it now?

   Citation 746.1205(a)(2): cited in two visits, including high-risk standards.

3. 03

   Citation 746.501(a)(21): cited in two visits, none above medium-low risk.

5. 05

6. 06

   What is the ratio in the room my child would join, and how is every child accounted for at nap time, pickup and on the playground?

   Ratios change through the day, so they are worth counting yourself on a visit.

7. 07

   Has the center ever been under corrective or adverse action, and what changed afterward?

   HHSC’s files name no enforcement action in this window. They say whether a program is under corrective or adverse action, not what the action was.
