Memory Care Communities in San Angelo, TX

"Myrtlewood (Emeritus at Myrtlewood) was okay. It was centrally located. It was near malls and grocery stores.The rooms were very clean and nice. The food was not the greatest, but the staff was helpful. The only thing was that they demanded you to eat in the dining room and you were not allowed to eat in the room. I didn't like that because I felt you should be able to choose were you wanted to eat. "

"I toured the Springs Memory Care. When I first got there, they gave me an in-depth briefing of what services they deliver, the point at which they are no longer capable of providing care, and kind of a general overview of how their facility works. The residents can come and go as they please, but they have to be escorted. They showed me semi-private rooms and private rooms. They showed me the activity rooms, the cafeteria, and all the amenities that they offer. The rooms are nice. One of the things that I liked about it is you don't have to use their furniture. You can bring in any furniture you want to make it feel more homey. The semi-private room was a little bit small. From the perspective of having two people in the room and having two televisions, I thought that was a little tight. There's a front dining room area, which anyone can use, but they have smaller tables for people that want to dine by themselves. And then they have a larger, more traditional communal dining room area with tables that had four people on them. I thought it was well designed and thoughtful, and took into account personal preferences. Some people may or may not want to dine with others. They have a monthly calendar with a schedule of activities for physical, social, intellectual, spiritual, emotional, and sensory stimulation. The staff was very knowledgeable, very interested, very empathic, very understanding of the situation, and extremely helpful. Even if we choose not to go with them, they also offered their services from a reference perspective."

"My friend moved into Sagecrest Alzheimers Care Center. She's in the Alzheimer's unit. I highly recommend it. The nurses are the ones that have to let me know because she's in memory care, and she's not able to converse, but it's excellent. I highly recommend it. The meals are excellent, and as far as walking, the grounds and everything are excellent."

"We went to Baptist Retirement Community and toured both the high rise and also the residential duplexes. It was a great place to live. The tour was very enjoyable. The young lady that took us on the tour was very cordial and very informative. We did get an application, but we haven't gotten it filled out yet. The apartments were very nice, very good, and very up-to-date. If you rent one of the duplexes, they will come in and refurbish it to bring it back up to the standards of a nice new apartment. We had tried the food sometime ago. In fact, we ate over there a lot before COVID. I think they have great food. The dining area was great, and they say they have remodeled it. I haven't had a chance to see it since it has been remodeled, but they say it's a lot better than it was. It was an excellent place to eat. They have activities. The people I have known there through the years said they have a lot of activities that you can get involved in if you like to. If you don't, you can just kind of stay at home. I think it's very appealing. It's a very nice place. I met some people that we've known for a long time there. One gentleman lives in a home there. The staff during the tour is very well versed on all the information that you need. She didn't have to look around and try to figure it out. She already knew it. She's very good. The activities I've heard that they do there were great."

"Baycrest has been such a blessing to our family. Our grandmother is currently a resident and every time we visit, we are welcomed by the loving and devoted staff. She is treated with the utmost care and it is so nice to see her smiling and having a good time, especially during the family events and daily activities. She also enjoys the exercise time and crafts. The staff at Baycrest truly cares for their residents as if they are family. Finding such a wonderful place for our grandmother has been the greatest blessing we could have asked for!"
