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

   Citation 746.1205(a)(4), Cited in Two Visits

   HHSC inspectors cited 746.1205(a)(4) in February 2026 and July 2026. The agency describes it this way: Supervision ensures each child?s safety, well-being, including physical proximity and auditory or visual awareness of each child?s on going activity. 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 746.1205(a)(4) was cited, and how do you check it now?

   Citation 746.1205(a)(4): cited in two visits, including high-risk standards.

2. 02

   What changed after 746.3701 was cited, and how do you check it now?

   Safety - Areas Free From Hazards: cited in two visits, most seriously at medium-high risk.

3. 03

   What changed after 746.3803(a)(1) was cited, and how do you check it now?

   Medication Authorization - Signed and Dated: cited in two visits, most seriously at medium-high risk.

4. 04

   What changed after 746.5603(c) was cited, and how do you check it now?

   Citation 746.5603(c): cited in two visits, most seriously at medium-high risk.

5. 05

   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.

6. 06

   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.

Program details, licensing visits and the deficiencies cited at each are published by the Texas Health and Human Services Commission's Child Care Regulation in its daily files on data.texas.gov.
