Caraday Nursing Home ranks among top 100 in Texas

CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas — Caraday Nursing Home was ranked No. 19 in Texas by Newsweek magazine in its 2025 Best Nursing Homes rankings. This recognition places the facility among the top 100 nursing homes nationwide, reflecting the facility’s commitment to high-quality care and resident satisfaction.

Families love knowing their loved ones are going above and beyond.

“This place really feels like a family,” said resident Kathy Dunahoo.

He has lived at the facility for two years and said he loves it.

“There are so many good people here, that’s what I like about this place, almost everyone I’ve met here is good people,” Dunahoo said.

As we recently reported, Corpus Christi Caraday Nursing Home was named one of the best nursing facilities in Texas, and on Tuesday Mayor Paulette Guardo declared November 12 Caraday Day.

“We are so honored to be one of the 100 best homes in America, and it takes a lot of effort and work on our part to make sure our residents are taken care of and their days are joyful,” said Ernest De La Garza. Caraday’s manager said:

Caraday Nursing Home earned its prestigious ranking by meeting four key criteria:

  • Resident Satisfaction and Services
  • Safety
  • Quality of Life
  • CMS data (a nationwide rating system for nursing homes)

Dunahoo added that he loved every second of living there, they enjoyed many activities, and this was one of the many things that made this resort different from others.
“We play bingo, sometimes go to the museum, and even get picked up by wrestlers,” he said.

“We try to make every day special by bringing the hockey team, the baseball team and the wrestling together, that was a request from our residents and we are making that happen,” De La Garza said.

Their overall goal is to make residents’ lives meaningful.

“We are a family here,” he said.
