Do a search for "nursing home regulations in Texas" or " long term care regulations in Texas" You'll find lots of ggod info-your state dept. of health and also your state att. general have links to LTC.

Go to the DADS website. The regulatory guidelines for facilities are there as are links to the applicable TAC codes which also apply. In addition your facility should have a copy of the guidelines on site for reference. I believe that is required under the guidelines.
