Memory Care Communities in Missouri City, TX

"My mom has lived in Senior Living facilities in the past including a memory care facility. There is a distinct difference between a facility and a licensed care HOME environment. At Agape my mom has (and continues) to receive love, respect and attentiveness. When I chose to move my mom to a HOME environment with 24/7 care it was the best decision I made. I have 100% peace of mind,. She has thrived over the past several years; (she has improved in her condition). Parkinson’s & Lewy Body Dementia are challenging to live with. Agape community HOME is just that…a home, peaceful environment, good home cooked meals. Each resident it treated as a family member and that makes a huge difference when comparing a HOME to a facility. The staff at Agape are kind and responsible for my loved one. I trust them!"

"I went to Brookdale Sugar Land. The rooms were very nice. I like the size of the rooms. The menu looked good. The staff was very pleasant, nice, and engaged in conversation. They had a podiatrist that came in. They have a beauty salon. They have a small rehab center and a couple of areas for watching movies if you don't want to be in your room. The building was nice. It was clean. It didn't have any odor, which was nice because I know some places have that."

"My mom is currently at Optimum Personal Care. The staff is excellent. They seem to be more motivated and more personally interested in the residents than the other places we'd been to. The staff is just superb. The rooms are quite nice. They're all semi-private. The place is always immaculately clean. They have fewer amenities and much smaller public areas, but they have a higher staff-to-resident ratio. However, the food is very bland. Mom complains about it but there's plenty of it. My mom is bed and wheelchair bound and she requires a two-person lift. The place is broken into pods where they have a common area and a dining room that is divided amongst 14 people. The large public area is lined with recliners. They have a common work table there and the times I visited they had some artsy crafty things. That's really the activity that they do. Most of the people that are there just sit and snooze in the recliner. Nevertheless, every time I have been there the staff members have been attentive. When Mother needs to be changed I push her pendant, and there's somebody there within 20 seconds. They are very helpful, very friendly, very responsive, very caring, and very affectionate toward the residents. The value is very good. My mom is paying somewhat less where she is in now than the previous place where she was getting less care. Now, she doesn't have a nice big room by herself, so there's that, but it is actually a good value."

"My brother is a resident at the Auberge facility in Sugar Land. Prior to being a resident here he was at another facility in Sugar Land and was so unhappy that it had an affect on his well being. He was moved to Auberge in Sugar Land and he is a different person. He has short term memory but other then that he is very functional. Clients are well cared for, staff is constantly active with clients, cheerful, and integrated with individuals who are on the functional level except for programs where everyone is together. I have yet to go there that I haven’t seen staff doing puzzles, artwork and other activities. There are gardens a work bench, a little golf area, areas to sit outside and bleachers so residents can watch sporting activities at the school next to the facility. There are animals, tv areas, etc. I was there during lunch and the food is nourishing, well prepared and pretty good. They do patient assessment on an ongoing basis and constantly communicating with the family. They have physical and occupational therapy on site. It is very clean with no smell, music playing, a large fish tank, and staff are always friendly and clean. Private rooms are few but a client is allowed to decorate and a display cabinet is outside each room so clients can display a few important items. I can only say that I have peace of mind and would highly recommend this facility to anyone. It may be small but it certainly mighty"

"We toured Landon Ridge Sugar Land Assisted Living & Memory Care. It's very pretty, very nice, and clean. It was kind of small, but I think all of them were small like that. The one they showed me was pretty good. It was okay, one big room and a nice sized bathroom, a little area where they put the refrigerator or where they put something like that, and the door going up to the hallway. They had everything accessible where mom could go out. They showed me the place where to eat, a little cafeteria, a little gym or a little place where they exercise, and a little area where they sat outside. The lady who showed us around was nice, presentable, and so forth. I didn't have any interaction with anybody except for the tour guide. She was very friendly."

"When I went to Tender Care Assisted Living, it was so very clean. The caregivers were very helpful in giving information, and seeing how they worked while I was there. It was a very nice facility and great caregivers. The communication was very good. They communicated with the patients. While I was there, I noticed a lot of what they were doing, keeping them comfortable, and interacting with them. I noticed that they had outdoor space, which is nice, the living space area for them to come and watch TV out in the living area, which is a very nice size. They have games and interactive games, but I didn't see a workout facility, they said they do work out with them. They're not just sitting in a chair. They try to get them to do some things with their legs and arms."

"My mom has moved into Creekside Alzheimer's Special Care Center. It's been really good. They're very engaged with their patients, and they keep them very active. That's the main thing; they've got activities going one right after the other. They've been really wonderful. They took pictures of my mother the first day she was there and sent it to me to let me know how she was doing. My brother even called to check on her this weekend, and they asked if he wanted to speak to her, so they put her on the phone. They just go over the top to help. It's nice and small. They don't have showers in the individual room, that way they don't have to worry as much about falls. They have a centralized bathing location for them, which I think is a wonderful idea. Their rooms are very nice. They have in the facility, in the middle, a solarium that's open to the sun. I've seen them out there with the patients doing exercises. They have a garden out there, where the patients can actually grow plants (like tomatoes and stuff like that). They've been awesome and really good. I haven't tried the food due to Covid. It's kind of hard; they are very careful with COVID. They have you put on one of their N95 masks when you go to visit; and you can't visit in a common area. It keeps you away from other patients just to protect them. It's very homey. When you walk in, you feel you feel like you're in someone's home. The entryway opens right up into like a living room, and there's a library off to one side. Then the offices are intermingled right alongside the patients' rooms. There are people that work there milling around everywhere. The offices are not hidden anywhere; they're all right out in the open. They have far surpassed where we moved her from; that's for sure. I have seen them do more activities with them in just a few short days of moving around, than we saw at the previous place. They were singing church hymns, and I've seen them out doing Chair Taichi outside. I've seen them dancing and just lots of activities. It's much less expensive to go there than where we previously were."

"I toured Orchard Park at Southfork. They have activities for the people, so they don't just sit around and do nothing. They take them around outside, and they have little sit-to-be-fit, so they get a little exercise. The staff was very nice and knowledgeable. The dining area was nice and clean. In the memory care area it was just a little dark. It needed more lights or something, but everything was fine. There were no smells or anything like that."

"My husband and I are very pleased with our apartment. We were able to make it suit us and our needs. We appreciate the helpful, friendly staff, Debbie, Suzanne, Anne, Shonta, Riska, Grace, and Natalie among others. We've made some new friends and joined several activities like Dime Bingo, Gardening Club and Drama Club. We have found the community responsive to suggestions for improvements and new ideas. I would recommend Clayton Oaks Living to my friends and family."

"The Village of Meyerland was nice. My uncle enjoyed that one. Depending on what side you were on, there were rooms with a view that looked out over Brays Bayou. He liked the view, but he didn't like the fact that the only way he could see it was to be up high. The facility was great. The people were good. At the time, the rooms that they had available that would accommodate his needs were on the upper levels, and he wasn't comfortable with being up that high. We looked at one-bedroom apartments. The parking was fine."

"I had a good experience with Agape Heritage Home. I liked the cleanliness, they were very friendly, and they had a lot of activities, but my mother would not be able to participate in their activities at this time. The level of care seemed very good, the people seemed very good, and the building itself was beautiful, clean, and very orderly."

"Com for Care Assisted Living is small, but they're more focused on the patients. My mom has been there for a week now. The staff members are great. My mom speaks Spanish mostly, and the staff speaks Spanish, which is a plus for my mom. Their food is all home-cooked. It's like a house, not like a big facility. They're limited in there. However, I'm really happy with it. They have a little patio where they can sit outside. From the back, they have a backyard, too."

"The place that I like the best down here is the Tradition-Buffalo Speedway. I like all of their amenities. The staff who toured us were very welcoming, very informative, and very helpful. I tried their food, and it's excellent. There's an indoor swimming pool, a gymnasium, an indoor courtyard, and balconies if you're not on the ground floor. There are several facilities for eating, like a café and formal dining. There's also indoor parking. It's just wonderful."

"My mother is in assisted living in Atria Westchase. We're very, very happy with the choice. She is in a studio apartment, which is quite spacious for her needs. She's here by herself, but I'm very happy with the care that she receives. She has a nurse's aide that comes and helps her shower three days a week. They help her dress in the morning. She receives occupational and physical therapy onsite if she needs it. They also have a nurse practitioner that comes out and takes care of medications. She does have medication assistance. There is a medication person that comes around and makes sure she has her medications when she needs them. They have lots of activities. She's very happy with the activities and the food. She has no complaints about that. Everyone is very kind. The place is immaculate. It is very clean. The grounds are lovely and manicured. The staff is very friendly and very kind. She has made friends with most of the staff. They come in and drop in to see her when they're in a hallway, or they'll see her when she's downstairs at activities. They have a full schedule of activities every day. I visit twice a week, and I've never been concerned about anything. I can call the director of the center any time I need to. I have called to ask a question once and I was quite impressed that she answered her phone when I called her, and I've gotten an answer. I haven't really needed to have anything fixed because things have gone so smoothly. The maintenance staff is very attentive and very helpful. There has been some turnover of late, but I suspect that that is an industry standard, and that happens quite often everywhere."
