Assisted Living Communities in Waxahachie, TX

"I can afford to put my mother into A Daughter's Care - Shennandoah House. Plus, it's small. There's not a lot of patients there. They got like maybe seven or eight patients in there. Also, it's close to my home. The rooms are beautiful. They are nice. The house looks nice, fresh, and open. They even have a big, nice backyard. So far when I go there, they have someone out in the backyard doing some garden work like that. They're also watching TV. They have all different kinds of stuff that they're doing. The residents seem to be content and quiet. It's just nice. It's always nice and clean when I go in there."

"Brookdale Ennis was an older place. It's maintained, but you could see some age to it. My only complaint with them was that everything was a la carte. With my mother-in-law's care being a la carte, it would bring the bill up to $5400 a month. They wanted $750 a month for medication management. Everybody was very attentive though. When we were walking around the location, I saw a lot of the staff working with the residents and they had plenty of personnel to take care of them."

"My grandmother was a resident of Sterling House for several years. The staff were always very friendly and helpful. Many of them were very generous with their time and energy to make residents feel welcome and at home at Sterling House. The food served at the house was actually pretty good and my grandmother did not ever complain about it. A preacher would come once a week and lead a service for the Christian residents. They even brought in entertainment for the residents like an Elvis impersonator and tried to make the experience of living there as pleasant as possible. The staff and residents seemed like a big, loving family and I know it was a good place for my grandmother to live. I would recommend Sterling House to people living in or around the Dallas-Fort Worth area who have an elderly family member who needs daily assistance to live well. "

"Meadow Creek Senior Living had a better nursing staff and was a bigger facility. There was a lot of activity and you could see people doing things. They were playing some music, and the residents looked lively and happy. I was there during lunch time and saw that the food looked very good. There were also people playing cards, a person exercising with a wellness nurse, and they had popcorn."

"My sister is now at the assisted living at Deer Creek Senior Living. So far we're satisfied with this community, we're still trying to get her acclimated to it. She is still not wanting to get up to go to the dining room to eat when she found out they would bring the meal to her room, so she stays there. We also had the home health care come in and I'm going to meet the nurse today, and they also have a physical therapist coming in. We're trying to get her to participate in the activities that they have. The staff is great. Everybody from the executive director to their health partner, they've all been really good. You see the dining area when you first walk in, and there are also a lot of other areas. It's not a really large community, but they try to group residents at tables together so they'll be able to get social together. They're also trying to get my sister to go down. It's a smaller place and not as large as the other ones, but because of the size, the staff are able to give more attention."

"Managed by a husband and wife team who only care about keeping a roof over the head of your loved one. If that is all that is important then this may be a good fit for your loved one."

"Everything is wonderful in Crescent Place, from the decor to the staff to the care that my loved one is receiving. The apartments that they have are all studio apartments and they are great bringing their own furnishing. The staff is very caring and very open too. "

"My mother-in-law is moving here. It's right next to our house, and it's exactly what she needs. The place is clean. It's modern. The staff was very friendly and seemed to be very helpful. The rooms were nice and they're willing to accommodate Mom with the things she needs. You just bring your own furniture in, and it's a studio. They have an activity room in the gym, and that was it. There is a courtyard, but I don't think anybody goes out there."

"Mayberry Gardens was a nice facility with on-site nurses. If we could have afforded something like that, it would have been fine, but my mother kept on saying that she wanted more independent living instead of assisted living. The facility was immaculate with the upkeep of the outside. The setup was beautiful. They had a little sitting area outside, plants, and beautiful landscapes. The staff was very knowledgeable about everything that was going on about the facility. She talked to us through everything about the rooms and its sizes. The only thing was she just couldn't give us a price. I think I ended up talking about it with somebody else. Seemed like the nurses and the staff were very helpful too. I didn't know where to go, and they told me, "Wait a minute, we're going in. Will let them know that you're here.""

"My family was looking for an assisted living facility for my grandfather when we came across Sterling House of Mansfield. As soon as we walked in the door we felt welcome.Their establishment was kept up well and seemed very sanitary, and all of the residents we saw while we were there seemed to like it there.There rooms looked nice and inviting to anyone who walked by, while all of the staff were extremely friendly and nice. They made my grandfather feel welcome before he was a resident and I have no doubts that he would have felt just as welcome if he had stayed.In the end we could not stand the thought of only seeing our grandfather when we came to visit him at his new home so we wound up taking care of him ourselves. Over all this is a great establishment and I would recommend it to anyone who asked "

"We toured Tender Care Home for Adults. It turns out that this was a group home and not independent living. It was an interesting experience. They were not motor-wheelchair friendly, which is what my mother uses. It's a house that's converted into a facility. The hallways were narrow because the house was built in the 1950s. It was not what my mom and grandma needed. The bedrooms are really small. The staff who assisted me was very kind, but it took a while for her to understand what our needs were, and when she finally figured it out, she was like, 'Oh yeah, this wasn't going to work for you all.'"

"I'm very, very happy with Bethesda Gardens Assisted Living Arlington. It's a very nice community. Meals are gourmet and I'm really happy with that. I'm upstairs, so I take an elevator, and we have activities and outings. I got a bigger room than what I had at the other place, and the staff is excellent. I love them all. They're all wonderful people and very professional. The food is top-of-the-line cuisine. They've got excellent and savory food. They have two dining areas. They've got Walmart trips and Goodwill trips, and the other night we went to see the Christmas lights. They have all kinds of puzzles and games and I played bingo today. It's an excellent living community. They're family and cordial. I like it a whole lot. We got three gourmet cooks. The food is savory and I keep complimenting them. If you don't like what's on the menu for lunch and supper, they got alternates and you got to pick them up before 10:00. There are convenience stores that I can walk to. The only problem is they go to a grocery store at Wal-Mart, which is smaller. I have to take a yellow cab to the super Walmart over by AT&T Stadium. They do my laundry and housekeeping. This is a very good place for seniors."
