"My dad was at Madison. I have friends who worked there. The staff was great. My dad liked it there. They had bingo and parties, and families were invited to visit anytime. Madison is more upscale than any of the other places around here because it is brand new and feels more like a hotel. "

"My aunt was in this facility. The private room she was in for rehab was very nice. The therapy staff were friendly and got her walking again. The nurses were caring and made her feel at home. I didn't even know this facility was there but we had been at another building in town and the staff were rude. This is a nice surprise on the west side of Odessa!"

"My dad is at Sienna Nursing and Rehabilitation. They are great. My dad is not getting as much physical therapy as I would like, but he is well taken care of and loves the food. They have bingo three times a week, parties, and special dinners for the holidays, too, with families invited. They have all kinds of activities. Everyone is always doing something. I haven’t seen anybody just standing around doing nothing. Everybody, including the administration, interacts with the patients very well. They’re always with the patients. My dad is in a shared room that's a little small but nice. They have their own television, dressers, and closets. "

"My mom has moved into The Parks Senior Living. It is a small community. They have long-time employees. It is a lot more space. The value is great. The people are great. She's very happy there. The staff members are very caring. They've all been there for a long time. The facilities are very nice. They have been updated. They're very well taken care of. They do activities daily. They play bingo, they're getting back into exercise class, they have pet therapy, and they do crafts. They are in the process of putting in a little country store that the residents are going to be able to visit at any time."

"My husband is in Ashton Medical Lodge now. He went there two weeks ago and started recuperating really well. They have a wonderful rehab center. He is in a room with someone else, and they come in two or three times a day and keep it clean, make sure everything is picked up off the floor, and sweep. They don't have any dirty clothes laying around and take their clothes to the laundry. He can't have any extra salt, but they use herbs to season the food, which he really likes. There's a nice variety, too. The staff is wonderful."

"Excellent Staff works really good with each other Very skilled I would not have wanted my family to care for me 24/7 which is what I needed. Never felt like I was a burden. Kindness seemed to be character of all no matter if you asked housekeeper or nurse for help I Highly recommend this place. Hope I never need this again but if I do this is where I will go. Clean Food was excellent and creative Did I mention clean!!!"

"Mom is living at Mabee Health Care Center. The staff are wonderful. She started out in the skilled nursing for the rehab after her hospital stay. The therapist and the nurses were great. They came and checked on her. They wanted it to be as home-like as possible for her. It’s a wonderful place. She was in a private room over in the assisted living, which was wonderful, but now she is in a shared room, and she will eventually be a Medicaid patient if she outlives her money. Her roommate is wonderful. The room size is adequate. It's fine, and it's well taken care of. I don’t have any complaints at all with them. "

"My mother is a resident of Senior Care of Midland. They have activities for the residents, although she's not capable of doing them. They also provide three meals a day, and I think their facilities are adequate. One thing they can improve on is when they do something they should communicate it with me, and if they change my mother's medication they need to tell me why and who authorized it. The staff is helpful. I don't have a problem with them."

"Desert Gardens had a very friendly and professional environment. The facility was clean, well-managed, and well organized. Their room was like small motel room. It had a private bath, the furniture was the client's, the bed, the dresser. It had a nice window. You fix it up the way you wanted. "

These programs can be complicated, especially when it comes to benefit terms. Below, we give a brief overview of how these programs may be used towards paying for skilled nursing care.
If these options aren’t available to you, check if your loved one has long-term care insurance or contact your Area Agency on Aging to ask about any local financial assistance programs for seniors.
