Nursing Home Communities in Odessa, TX

"First of all, I come from a hospital employee background, (Department Head) to be exact. I believe I know something about such related facilities operate and the obstacles they faced in attempting to maintain adequate care for residents. Don't think I do not look for this when we visit our daughter, a long-term resident at Ashton. Of course, there have been occasions when we have had to speak up about certain things and those things, upon consideration by administration have been acted upon and changes made. Overall, we find Ashton to be average and even above average in care and concern for residents. Ashton has had excellent administrative leadership and when such was not up to standard of Corporate, changes were made for the better. The staff at Ashton is more than willing to work with us in the care and concern for our daughter. We have found them to be more than cooperative in many matters. When COVID 'hit' the facility was diligent in maintaining a safe facility as much as they could, given the inadequate training and equipment to do so from the Federal Government. It was only a matter of time before COVID, via staff, made it into the facility and as we should all know, once the virus begins it works like a wild brush fire. However, with great diligence, Ashton staff have maintained and overcome the virus. Yes, our daughter did become infected but is now recovering, thanks to the diligence of the Ashton Staff. We are sick in our heats for those who died, but I want to say, it was not the fault of, or negligence of the staff at Ashton."

"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. "
