"I love this place! I love the people! I Love all the staff! Couldn't be in a better place! And hey the MEAT LOAF is the best ever! You will find loving , caring people here~ It's a FAMILY!! I wouldn't go anywhere else!"

"The Villa at Marbridge has a program which helps people who are memory retarded or handicapped, and they stressed on that. They treated my mom so good. They had people playing guitars and singing with the people, and I thought this is the life and not just letting the people line up down the hall. It was the best, and it was close to home. What made it good was the people who cared. My mom said the food was OK. "

"I think I had a lot of good therapy at Brodie Ranch Nursing & Rehab Center. The therapists and the workers would come every day and work with me. I got my medicine on time. I tried to go back there but found out that people were having changes with the staff right now and so the personnel who had been in charge didn't call me back unless they did and I didn't recognize the number. The staff, like the nurses and assistants, were really good but there would be times when I would need a shower and ask if I could get in the shower, I would get one but then nobody would show back up. I didn't like that. That was just a little assistance, but basically when I needed my medicine or whatever, I got everything. Those six months were good, that's why they were able to let me go. They thought that I was doing rather better than a lot of the other people. One other reason that I was told to leave was because there was some difference of opinion about my finances and my check, but other than that, it was good. Our breakfast was cold by the time we got it because they had four different sections there. It was about the same thing every day like eggs and maybe oatmeal. It was the same meal with a slice of bacon and that was it. To me, it's a nice facility. The one activity that they had basically for me was bingo. They said they have activities together for the seniors like playing some kind of basketball with a balloon or sitting in the dining room and watching TV, but the only activity I liked to do was to sit outside."

"I was in Hays Nursing & Rehab Center. They were competent. The staff was fine. The problem that I had with the place was the food. It was bland and not very interesting. It was clean and well-maintained. They had bingo and some group activities. The rooms were too small."

"Onion Creek Nursing and Rehabilitation Center is well organized and the nurses and staff are real friendly. The layout of my mother's room is just like a normal room for a nursing home, but it's clean and well-kept. The meals looked well prepared, very good, and nutritious. The common area they have there is like a living room/TV room. It is well-kept, very clean, and very organized, too."

"My mom is in Cypress Healthcare and Rehabilitation. They think very highly about the staff. The staff is caring, they care about the patients. They're really good about notifying me if something happens like when my mom fell, and they made sure that I was aware and family members were aware. Then they continued to check on her that same afternoon to make sure, and they gave us a lot of good updates. They go into her room and take all the equipment for the therapy that they need that day. That's all the activities she's doing right now. They have good things here, and there's also a living center on one side of the hall. They have good equipment."

"My mom was in rehab at Regent Care Center Of San Marcos. They kept the place nice and clean. The layout was very good too. They seemed to have the amount of the staff that they need. The staff was good, and the care was good too. The dining area was well organized and clean. The food was good too. My mom is not a very social person, but she did enjoy doing their crafts. They also tried to get her involved. They have games and they have church services, which meant a lot to my mom."

"My brother is in West Oak Rehab and Healthcare Center, and it is a very good facility. Their physical therapy department is incredible. However, there is an unfortunate experience; somebody robbed my brother, but no one knows what happened. Overall, the physical therapy and the nursing are excellent. The follow up is great. I think it is an excellent facility. They go beyond what you really expect. The sanitation is very good. "

"Southpark Meadows was clean. They just didn't seem to care a lot about the patients. They were not attentive. I asked when they were going to change my mother, and the staff said to let her finish what she's doing. Five minutes later, I looked out in the hall and she was sitting down eating. She seemed irritated when I reminded her that she was going to come help. The rooms were OK, and the facilities were pretty good. The night shift seemed to be busy watching TV, eating, and visiting each other. They need to be more attentive to the needs of the people, at least in the nursing facility section. They need to shorten their response time when the patients ask for help."

"Southpark Meadows is a very nice facility and they have people that are working there for a long time. It's a newer facility, and they are very well staffed. I liked what I saw and everybody was friendly. They take care of their business and the patients. It's a very good facility. "

"Everyone is very friendly and attentive. I was visiting a friend and she told me that she loves the people here and I don’t find that hard to believe. They’re all very kind and caring. Thank you for taking care of my wonderful friend. "

"Brush Country Nursing & Rehabilitation is great in taking care of my loved one and keeping things cleaned several times a day. The facilities are everything that we needed. I didn't see anything lacking. The nursing care is outstanding. The physical and occupational therapy are also outstanding. The therapists are very well trained. They speak kindly and encourage the residents to get up and move. They help them see easier ways to do that, and my mother loves everybody. The dining room is very nice. They can choose to go to the dining room or they can have a tray brought to their room. Some of the food are really good and others are not. So, it's a mixed bag, but it's healthy food. There are all kinds of activities. In fact, last week they hired a new activities director who's on top of things very quickly. They go out if they can. They take them shopping or to other kinds of events. They have a lot of things to do onsite as well. They do crafts, puzzles, and bingo every week. The activities director not only does activities for groups, but she also goes to individual residents and helps them with things. They are outstanding. Even the admissions office is wonderful."

"My mother's experience with Hill Country Care has been OK. It's just a little boring, and the food is not so great. The staff is very caring. She is living in a room by herself, and it's fine. "

"I had to go through a lot of bad places before I found Monte Siesta, and it is great. The staff is awesome. The food is OK; it’s cafeteria food. The rooms need to be updated, but it’s OK. They do a lot of things. They let the residents be themselves and walk around. They care about my dad and converse with him. Everything is perfect in my eyes. "
