Texas gives every licensing standard one of five risk levels, from low to high, by how likely a deficiency is to harm a child.
Context
A repeated citation can merit attention, but context and corrective action must be reviewed before drawing a conclusion.
HHSC inspectors cited 746.2419(7) in March 2022, April 2025 and April 2026. The agency describes it this way: Requirements for Feeding Infants - No Walking or Sleeping with Bottle or Cup. None rose above medium-high risk. Each citation has a recorded correction, and a repeat after correction is worth a direct question.
HHSC inspectors cited 745.621(a)(2) in April 2025 and April 2025. The agency describes it this way: AP Initial background checks submitted - At the time you hire someone. 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.
HHSC inspectors cited 746.1601 in May 2022 and April 2026. The agency describes it this way: Child/ Caregiver Ratio - 13 or More Children. None rose above medium-high risk. Each citation has a recorded correction, and a repeat after correction is worth a direct question.
For Your Next Visit
Bring these to the tour. Each one comes from something in the record; the reason is under the question.
What changed after 746.2419(7) was cited, and how do you check it now?
Citation 746.2419(7): cited in three visits, most seriously at medium-high risk.
What changed after 745.621(a)(2) was cited, and how do you check it now?
Citation 745.621(a)(2): cited in two visits, including high-risk standards.
What changed after 746.1601 was cited, and how do you check it now?
Child/ Caregiver Ratio - 13 or More Children: cited in two visits, most seriously at medium-high risk.
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.
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.
