The Best Nursing Home Communities in Collin County, TX

"I was unable to leave my bed, stand or walk when I arrived from the hospital. Thanks to the outstanding therapy team, I can now walk significant distances with my walker. I am extremely appreciative of their superb personalities as well as their skills and professionalism. "

"My mother just recently left this facility. I cannot say enough good things about the staff and our experience. The staff were very helpful and the therapy was excellent. I do believe that she left doing better than she was before she went in to the hospital who sent her there. We feel very blessed to find the facility. The Social Worker was wonderful and help set up things for her when she went home. She has even chosen to go back to them for her out patient therapy. If you are looking for a great place to go through rehabilitation after therapy, check them out. "

"My mother came to Heritage after being in another facility for 3 weeks with no improvement. Within 2 weeks at Heritage she was on her feet, walking and now home. The personal at Hertiage where all concerned with her recovery. Employees work as a team...there is no that's not my job attitude. Employees also seem to enjoy coming to work, that passion is passed on in the care they provide. The facility is older but clean. It's not fancy as the first rehab she was in but fancy didn't cut it. "

"The Healthcare Resort of Plano is new, clean, and has very nice common areas. The staff seem very nice and attentive. The studio has lots of light, is a nice size, and has a proper setup for walk-in shower for the elderly. It also has a sink and a small refrigerator. Meals are provided. They have an exercise class and movies."

"I love the way San Remo is handling the Covid-19. Thank you for keeping my father safe. The nursing team is spectacular and my family and I feel comfort knowing that our father is in your hands. Words can't express how we feel."

"My father moved into Victoria Gardens of Frisco. It's always clean. It smells OK in there. It doesn't stink or anything. Everybody is really friendly, and the rooms are pretty nice. He is in a shared room, so he's got half the room, and the other guy's got the other half the room, but it's decent. They've got bingo. They play games. They have physical therapy. They have meals. They're doing haircuts there and stuff like that. I haven't sampled their food, but my dad says it's good. I would suggest giving them a little more activities or more stuff for them to do."

"My sister went to Carrara nursing home from the hospital. They're trying to get her on Medicaid and once they get on Medicaid, they're going to try to transfer her to assisted living. It's difficult to judge it, because a lot of these places are just starting over with the pandemic so they haven't got up to full force, but Carrara doesn't have that much activity. They have bingo and they're trying to get started with taking the residents out to the grocery store and that kind of stuff, even though they don't have kitchens. The facility provides the food and stuff but they have a refrigerator if they want to get some of that kind of stuff. Hearing my sister, I think the menu is not that great because many times she'll get a piece of meat and a piece of pie, and that's her dinner. She didn't get any vegetables or anything. I was in nutrition and I know how to plan menus for many years. They claim that it's because she doesn't mark the food off and I said, "Well, in my opinion, you have to make sure that she gets some vegetables". I don't know what the food tastes like. I have never seen it because she doesn't get meals when I'm there. I'm only there once a week and I usually go in between meals like in the afternoon. My sister judges the food and she tells me what they've eaten. She doesn't complain that it tastes bad. It's just not what she expects. The staff has been taking good care of her. The lady that was in the room with her had some kind of an infection so they moved her out to another room because they didn't want my sister to get it. The communication is not as good as it could be, but they're starting to do Zoom meetings once a month. I don't get involved in them because I can't do Zoom very well on my own. I can't do it on my phone and I have a hard time doing it on the computer, so I have to get my brother to set that up. I guess they're trying to do more things now that the pandemic is hopefully on the way out. At least they don't have any more patients there. When my sister went there first from the hospital, she went into this section where they have to watch her for 15 days or something like that, and then she got moved to a different room. They're very cautious about the masks and everything when you're coming in and you have to sign in. I think, on the whole, they're aware of what's going on. It's just that there are some things they're not capable of doing but they're starting to pick up again. When I see the board that gives you the activities and stuff like that, they used to have a lot more activities and they said they're going to start picking up. They've got the bingo going now, and they're letting them go into the dining room to eat now, instead of in their rooms. My sister complains that she's not getting enough therapy because she wants to get up and walk with at least a walker, but they said that she's not ready for that yet. I guess it's all for her own good. She can't walk and this is something new to her since she went into the hospital. She was always out walking with a walker but they said the pandemic made her joints weaker, so they have to build it back up but she's not ready to go on a walker yet. They are locked in, which is for security, but they do have patios they can go out to and they have lounges that she can come out to sit in so she doesn't always have to sit in her room. Her room is acceptable but it's not the cleanest. I think that should be cleaned up. My sister has tremors along with not being able to walk so sometimes she spills her food when she's in the room eating. They only have the residents going to the dining room for lunchtime only. The rest of the meals are taken to their rooms."

"Remington Medical Resort is good. The therapy was good. The staff is nice. "

"The thing I liked least about Highland Springs was the amount of walking and everything that you had to do to get between places and all that, but that's something that sort of comes with the territory. They have some sort of central facility where they have the eating facilities and all of that. Then your rooms and all that kind of stuff are spread out. The thing that was most impressive was all the activities and things that they had. They had lots and lots of them. It was all very clean and nice. It was a pleasant atmosphere. It was very friendly and easygoing. The rooms were really quite nice. The layout was very impressive."

"The facility is beautiful, when I first walked in I noticed there is no bad smell coming down the hall. I know that they've had bad reviews in the past but the people that there now are definitely changing and everything's going for the better. "

"My mom has been there for 6 years, the place has seen it’s ups and downs. The current staff and administration are awesome. Valerie is the new event coordinator and there is always something going on that includes all the residents. The new admin Chris has a no tolerance attitude and puts up with nothing. The generation of today is lazy and need to be watched 24/7, so that makes it harder to run smoothly. This place is great."

" They do an excellent job of helping you navigate nursing home care. The therapy department is a specially caring and truly wants to help your loved one. I found that as I regularly spoke to the staff they were happy to help me in any way possible. I feel like my mother is getting genuine care. "

"I am a resident at Mckinney Health are and Rehab and it’s been a good stay. I would love to go home but I need help and this is the best place to be to give me the help I need. Holly has helped me so much. "

"My mother lived at this place for over two years. I felt she received good care overall and we both appreciated the facility's dedication to bringing in singers and musical groups to entertain the residents. The medical care provided was generally good. The nurses and others try hard to help each patient. The woman in charge of admissions was especialy gracious and made sure all of our questions were answered. The regular care team meetings helped us stay abreast of all of my mom's medical needs and the help provided to her. I ate meals with my mom at this place on several occasions and thought the food was pretty good, especially on weekends. My only negative comment involves some questions about how the charts were kept on one or two occasions. Other than that, I think most older residents will like this place. They really do try to make everyone feel "at home." "
