Chronology
Every visit in the record window, newest first. A deficiency is a licensing standard Texas inspectors found was not met. HHSC publishes what an investigation cited, not what the report to it alleged.

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 746.1203(3)(D) in June 2025 and February 2026. The agency describes it this way: Personal use of electronic devices, such as cell phones, MP3 players, tablets, and video games. 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 746.4501(b) in May 2022 and February 2023. The agency describes it this way: Chairs - Safety Straps Used if Required by Manufacturer. None rose above medium risk. Each citation has a recorded correction, and a repeat after correction is worth a direct question.
HHSC inspectors cited 746.707 in February 2025 and February 2026. The agency describes it this way: Incident/Illness Report Form Shared with Parent. None rose above medium 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 746.1203(3)(D) was cited, and how do you check it now?
Citation 746.1203(3)(D): cited in two visits, most seriously at medium-high risk.
What changed after 746.4501(b) was cited, and how do you check it now?
Chairs - Safety Straps Used if Required by Manufacturer: cited in two visits, most seriously at medium risk.
What changed after 746.707 was cited, and how do you check it now?
Incident/Illness Report Form Shared with Parent: cited in two visits, most seriously at medium 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.
