The facility reported a portion of its roof collapsed and extensive water damage.
“We are so thankful that everyone was evacuated from the building safely,” the post says. Some residents were transferred to Advanced Healthcare Center in Vernon, Texas, while others were taken home by family.
The nursing home sent six of its staff members to help residents get settled at Vernon.
In a Feb. 17 update, the facility told employees not to report to work until further notice. “We have not been given clearance to enter that building,” the post said. “It is still very dangerous and I don’t want anybody to get hurt.”
