The Best Assisted Living Communities in Galveston County, TX

"We have chosen Reunion Court of Clear Lake for my mom. We toured it. The facility was nice. The people were nice. They have all the standard stuff, and lots of medical staff present. The facility was clean. The layouts are standard. They have studios and one-bedroom apartments. They have on-site memory care in case that becomes a need later."

"Brookdale Pearland is a beautiful facility. It's well maintained. It has activities. The cafeteria was nice. They seemed to have everything in place, but it was private pay. The staff answered all my questions. She took the time out of her day when I dropped in without an appointment. I also had people call me back for details that I had questions about. They have a nice little dining area, and they all seemed engaged. They had some activities, but I don't remember if they had a therapy room or anything like that."

"The Park At Bay Area was pretty nice. It was an impressive walkthrough. They have so many different sections in there, plus the living section toward the back end was more like your own private apartment kind of situation. They said it's set up for couples if they wanna come. It's like maybe five on each side of a walkway, and it was very nice. They had an outdoor seating area for them. I was very impressed with that one, plus it's close to where we are. It would be easy to visit. It was great. I met with the manager or head person and a worker who was behind the desk, and then they gave me a tour at that time. My interest is the cleanliness of the place, the way the staff might interact with the residents there, and I was impressed with everything."

"I visited the independent living community of Trinity Oaks of Pearland for my sister. The person who assisted me during the tour was very informative and friendly. Everything was spacious and very nice."

"I toured Everywhere Is Home Residential Assisted Living. I was kind of skeptical about it because when I drove up, it was just like a regular house. When I entered it, it was very clean. The man who assisted me was the one who owns and runs the place. He has a few nurses who work there, and they are only supposed to have about 7 residents at a time. It can hold up to 8, but he just prefers to leave it at 7, and he puts two people in one bedroom. The place was nice and didn't seem to be that big. It's just a normal home with a kitchen and a bathroom that they remodel so they could put an actual wheelchair in them to bathe the residents. You have privacy when the door is closed, but the bathroom itself is all open. The owner was a very helpful person and really wanted to work with me, but it was out-of-pocket pay and more than I could afford. The people who were there were more like towards the end of life, to me. It's like hospice care, in a way. That's the kind of image I had about this facility. It was a nice place for somebody who needs that type of care. The physical appearance of the facility was just okay. It had beds, a TV, a dining table, and a little living room."

"We visited the assisted living facility of The Reserve at Pasadena. They're a very clean facility. The decorations that they have, as far as the whole building itself, look like a hotel instead of a nursing home. The rooms were very nice. The nurses were nice, and the people seemed happy. They were all sitting in the kitchen eating, and it was very nice. I like that my father would have a private room for himself there with his own shower, and he can control his air conditioning, because he gets cold and then he gets hot. I really like the whole place in general. They have a hands-on baking class where they can all purchase a plate and cook whatever they want. They have bingo nights, movie nights, and all kinds of activities. The person who gave the tour was very nice and respectful. She asked me if there was anything that I wanted to ask about, and she answered every question. She was very nice to the people who were there, and they all seemed to know her. There were hugs, and it's like they're one big family. They were in the process of eating lunch, and she said we were welcome to sit there and eat if we wanted to. She said they have a chef who works there, and he prepares gourmet meals for them. He used to work for a hotel, and they hired him there. He's been cooking for them for 20 years."

"The rooms are nice and adequate for our loved ones needs. The food seems agreeable to the needs. Fruit of some kind would be a nice, healthy addition. We cannot say enough kind words to describe how helpful, loving and supported we feel by every staff member we have encountered here - specifically Andrea who works 6 tasks simultaneously at times with a smile!"

"I toured Autumn Springs Home Care Communities Galveston. I liked the way it was set up. They're under construction right now. So, there's nothing available. I liked the management there. The manager was very, very nice and informative. The place was nice. Everybody had their own individual room, unless you shared a room with one other person. But it wouldn't be a bunch of people together. They showed me around everything. I just happened to pop up in the area. I didn't have an appointment. I liked the way they were set up with their rooms and everything. They have a library and different activities during the day. Everything was clean."

"We loved The Reserve at Pearland, but it was private pay, and there was no way we could cover that. Chloe was the sales director who toured us, and she is very likable. She has a great personality. The facility is beautiful and clean. The rooms are private little homes, like apartments, so they have little kitchen areas and everything. It's extremely nice, but it's all private pay. Chloe worked very hard to try to make us a good deal, but we couldn't cover it. It was very expensive. I would love to put my mother in that facility. They have a beautiful garden area with big magnolia trees."

"The people at Orchard Park at Southfork were great. The facility was really nice. The size of the rooms was small, but the upkeep was beautiful. We visited the entire facility. It was just perfect. It seems like there's plenty of parking. No problem with it."

"The rooms are very nice and there are multiple floor plans to choose from. The staff is friendly. The center is always nice and clean. The dining area appears to be understaffed creating long wait times for residents. The portions also seem very small to me but the food is good."

"This facility is beautifully decorated and immaculately clean. The owner and caregivers are kind, attentive, and responsive."

"My mom has been a resident in Independent Living for 4 years and has been very happy there. When she needed a hip replacement, she went into St. Dominic's skilled nursing and rehab facility on the same campus short-term. It was so convenient to bring her back to the same campus that has three tiers of care. The nurses and physical therapists were so kind to my mom. I visited her almost every day and, without fail, the facility was clean, my mom was well groomed and well fed, and I felt comfortable knowing she was safe and well cared for. The staff went above and beyond to get my mom walking again and they treated her with kindness. She was then able to return to her room in independent living."

"My tour of Braeswood Estates Senior Living was a good experience. It's a nice place. It's a nice quiet location near the bayou. The staff Angel took me through and showed me a couple of the sample rooms that they've got, the cafeteria, and stuff. It was clean and neat. We spoke to some of the people as we were going through it, and it seemed like a friendly place. Angel was quite helpful and quite friendly. I saw how she interacted with some of the residents, and she was quite pleasant with them. So that made a good impression that she seemed interested in them and had a good relationship with them. The apartments were pretty standard. They're not huge, but they seemed to be big enough for a comfortable stay. Everything was clean and neat when we walked through the hallways. The rooms had a little refrigerator and a bench in the shower. They had several courtyards and a screened-in porch where when it was not so hot, you can sit out there. They had a TV/movie viewing room and the cafeteria. It seemed like there was another room there where some of the residents were gathered like a library and stuff with some books and things. "
