Nursing Home Communities in Bandera, TX

"I'm trying to get my mother-in-law into Riverside Health & Rehabilitation. The place was beautiful. The rooms were nice. The staff was very knowledgeable and very nice. She showed us all the rooms and everything. She was very good. They have a hair salon and a gym. They have beautiful rooms with big flat TVs in them."

"The administration have provided a more structured and finer establishment with a new manager. Sometimes, places need to get rid of the poor work ethics and bring in quality personnel. The environment is very clean, the residents are happy and the rooms are comfortable to live and have staff perform their duties. I will be placing my loved one here in the care of Waterside Nursing & rehabilitation."

"My dad is doing rehab at Cibolo Creek in Boerne. I've been there and I've seen it. He's been there for a little bit now, and they're great. The physical therapists really are helping my dad, and he's actually improving. They communicate with me every day. I get to see his physical therapy going on. I'm there watching them and they're really great. They communicate very well. The rooms are really nice and they're very clean. The only thing I don't like is they make you wear the PPE that's very uncomfortable and hot. That's the only thing I don't like. The cleaning lady comes in once a day to clean this room and his bathroom, so it's very clean. It's like a home but it's a hospital kind of homey feel. I don't know how to explain it. It feels comfortable to go into, but it still feels kind of hospital-like in some sense. The staff is very nice and communicates well. If I have questions, they're there, and they answer my questions, especially the caseworkers there. She called me today because I was upset about something that had come up, and she called me and reassured me. It's amazing that if you are worried about something, they answer it. They try to fix everything, so I'm very happy so far. He doesn't like the food, but my dad doesn't like healthy food. The food they have is healthy, so he needs to just get used to eating healthy food."

"I was in ALPINE TERRACE for rehab. The staff was fine. Because of the virus, we were all kind of locked down in our rooms. Normally they have an active community, but because of the COVID-19, even when you weren't in isolation, you were isolated. They did food prep that at the very worst was good. The food, for an institution, was good. The staff was real good, they had good therapists, good patient aides, and good nurses. But like everywhere else, on weekends staffing worsens. I think that's universal, almost everywhere in nursing homes. It goes from nine to twelve people during the day, Monday to Friday, down to one or two on the weekends. It's brutal. They're trying hard to meet the needs of the patients, and it's hard, the buzzers never stop. It's an older structure, it needs a lot of maintenance, and you have a maintenance crew working. Every day they're doing something, somewhere. It's kind of an X layout, it's got like four wings, and one nursing station in the middle that services all four wings. Normally they're a very active community, trips and such, but the COVID-19 took that away. They're very active, and they tie an activity back into therapy, unbeknownst to the people there. They do a lot of fun games, but actually it's for balance and strength, but the people playing the games don't know. They help without being intrusive."

"I have lived in the community for over 30 years, I've had a few family members reside at Hilltop Village. In the past year, I have visited twice due to friend receiving therapy. The facility looks and smells good, the outside is clean, staff is friendly and welcoming. New administrator is friendly and shows hospitality to all visitors. Overall, I can see how much this place has cleaned up. Keep up the work."

"My mother-in-law moved into Community Care Center. When we went to visit it was very friendly and everybody was super nice. They are always watching out for every resident there. They are always on top of everything. Whenever we visit, they are always cheerful. I just cannot say enough. The group there is awesome. They actually prepare the food that she needs. I thought everybody gets the same, but some do and some don't, because they prepare for each individual. It's an old building, but it's super clean. It's an excellent building. I love the activities. I see this schedule when I go visit and the activities are excellent. It is an all-day activity and it's awesome. They do have haircuts and nails. I believe they are shopping for a new outfit. So far, my mother-in-law really likes it. Her first week there she is already friends with everybody and she loves it."

"My mother has been at Medina Valley Health & Rehab since Jan 2019. There was a complete change in management and it is great! I am very happy. The administration, the nurses, the CNA's the difference is amazing! The care and kindness everyone gives to the residents shows! Abby the joyous social worker, Taylor always smiling at the front desk, the amazing Paula, helpful Tiffany, fun activities director Audrey, sweet & kind CNA Alice, Josh, LVN Cynthia,t he dietary team and RN Rodrick I honestly feel we are very blessed. Thank you Medina Valley Health and Rehabilitation! "

"This facility blew my mind away the care was amazing I was told I would walk in 4 weeks and I walked in 3 weeks I would recommend this to my next loved one and anyone who wishes to have a fast recovery"

"I use Mystic Park for respite care with my mom. The staff in her unit is amazing and it puts me a ease to know that my is being well cared for when I need extra helping hand. Amanda and Cassie are so good with my mom and my mom is happy when she comes home so I know she is being well cared for. The disease she has is a difficult one and it is not only hard on her it is hard on the caregiver. Knowing that my mom is being well cared for takes the stress out for me when"

"The facility is new and has very good decor and layout. I had my Dad stay for rehabilitation and the staff treated him very well during his stay. He was offered a private room which was very spacious and had a comfortable lazy boy chair. We kept in good communication with the nurses, doctors, including admissions professionals Matt and Jacob who made sure all of our concerns were promptly addressed. Very friendly nurses treated my dad with respect and dignity. The facility offered games and activities, the staff made sure everyone participated and had a good time. We were able to visit with dad anytime, and the staff welcomed us by name. The facility was close to my primary residence and most of my family members, so that was a plus. They provided us with snacks at any time, transportation services, and extra blankets and towels. My father was able to get well enough to leave the facility in better health than when he first arrived. We are very thankful for the all that they have done for our dad and family. I would recommend you give them a visit before deciding on other facilities. "

"Mu brother was transferred to Silvercreek after having been in the hospital for nearly 1 mos. He was very debilitated and required total care. They care and therapy he received from everyone was excellent. Aides, dietary, housekeeping, nurses, therapists, social worker, DON, ADON, and administration were all very friendly, caring, compassionate and professional. The facility was always clean and it felt warm and welcoming with seasonal decorations. Thanks to everyone. My brother is now it home continuing to improve. As a family member and RN I highly recommend this facility if you are looking for special care."
