The staff and employees are so nice and accommodating. They have strict visitation rules and the check-in process is somewhat involved, but it’s all for the best and not a problem. The rooms are clean, no typical rest home smell. Yvette (Admissions) and Stephanie (Business Mgr) were especially helpful in getting a room very quickly with very little notice. The place is definitely not new, but the vintage 50’s feel is nostalgic and quite comfortable. The courtyard is really nice. Visitor parking, however, is quite limited and street parking is sometimes the alternative, and the small street gets congested. The residents seem happy and well taken care of. The entire place seems to be well ventilated, it always feels fresh and comfortable inside.

When my husband had an ankle replacement, he went to Reliant Rehab as an inpatient. I believe he was there for a week. It is a beautiful facility, sparkling clean! My husband also said it is a wonderful place. He had a private room that was spacious enough for him. They have a cafeteria where patients’, visitors and family can eat and their food is excellent. My husband enjoyed their food too. We actually had a friend who was one of the cooks there and he made sure that they’re cooking something that Gerry really like. I loved the administrator of this facility. He is a young paraplegic and he is just fabulous. All of the physical therapists that we have used are also excellent and very caring. My husband was very happy there as much as he could be in the circumstances.

Do NOT put yourself or a loved one in this facility. I chose this place based on the 5 star rating from the state & my conversation with Roger. Everything sounded great so we took my mother there after her discharge from the hospital. This is a 93 year old woman, weak as a kitten who can barely hold a cup, if at all. It was suggested by the staff that we put her in their palliative care because a nurse there informed me mom had begun the end of life process. This level of care was supposed to get her a little more attention but instead she got so dehydrated that she developed a salivary gland infection. For two days the right side of her face & neck were swollen & the people there acted as if they were unaware of any problem. Water was not within reach of mom because "she will just spill it." So as far as I can tell the only time my mother received food & water was when I was there to give it to her. The staff was advised she needed more attention but evidently chose to ignore her. Her skin was peeling & was all over the floor of the room. Twice in two days they were asked to clean the floor, twice in two days they did nothing. I brought in a small sweeper & did it myself. Then I called for an ambulance because mother was suffering terribly from the infection. She was taken to the hospital, treated for dehydration & infection. She did not respond as well as hoped & did not leave the hospital alive. Oh yeah, push the call light button all you want, you won’t see anyone for at least half an hour. Again, DO NOT USE THIS FACILITY!!

Do not use this facility for rehab. As I see others have had the same bad experience as we did. My husband was over medicated, went in on Tuesday and by Thurs could not stay wake up, could not feed himself, lost his voice, and had not received any rehabilitation, They simply had him over medicated and laying in a bed all this time. He was so medicated aids could not lift him to get him to the bathroom and when they would get there in time ( which was not always the case) they used a urinal which caused a cut and blisters on him. Had to have him moved to a hospital doctors said he was over medicated It took a week to get him back to normal. Also not enough staff to take care of amount of patients.

My father left the hospital and went to Sagebrook Health Center. He was in rehab just short of two weeks, and then he was transferred to a regular room. Additionally, he was put on hospice there, and he passed away there. I’m an RN, so I completely understand many of the aspects of staffing, what’s available, and what’s not available. Dad was pretty confused and a little bit disoriented when he was transferred there.
They asked us to come up and stay with him, which was a big personal burden for my husband and me. We were going up and spending nights in a straight-back chair with our loved one, who was asleep in bed the whole time I was there. It was really difficult during that almost two weeks that he was in Sagebrook. I understand their statement to me that they do not have the staff in the rehab unit for each person to care for one single, individual patient, but they don’t have staff at night, period. I’m talking from 10:00 pm until 6:00 am, and they had one MA on that unit for twenty-four rooms, maybe. If you have a disoriented family member, that’s not probably the place they should go at all.
The staff was lovely to us, and they were very nice to him, except the first night that he was there. I received a 4:00 am phone call from a frantic RN who was just going crazy over the phone. I said, "What do you want me to do? You told me that I have to get a negative COVID test, then I have to wait so many hours to get placed on the schedule so that I can come in and see Dad. Do you want me to come? Can you break the rules? What do you want me to do? Because I’m happy to come if you want me to come." She never said, "Yes, come and see if you can calm him down," that very first night. I was there the next evening because the director of nurses called and said, "We just don’t have the staff to manage him at night." They truly don’t have the staff. It was a little horrifying.
I would not have minded staying with dad so much if the accommodations had been better, but they put family members in a straight-back chair and say, "You have to stay in here in a plastic gown with gloves, a face mask, and a shield, sitting in that chair for the next eight hours." It was not good. They didn’t do everything wrong, but I think they could’ve done some things better. They’re certainly not a place for memory care. It was like two weeks there that I did not get to see him, but it was a noticeable degradation for him. You pretty much have to be a functioning adult, and they don’t even have showers in the bathroom. They have a shower in the hallway. At least the two rooms that Dad was in did not have showers in the bathrooms. I don’t know if that’s the way it is up and down all the other hallways because he was on the rehab hallway all except for one night when he was in hospice. None of the bathrooms had showers. I don’t want to be terribly critical because as a nurse I know people can be short staffed. I was told by the DON that they were short staffed, but they never got additional staffing the whole time we were there for the two weeks, so it’s not like somebody was on vacation.

I was sent to this place to recup after an operation. I was shown to a room that had an air mattress for the bed. The wall paper was peeling off the walls. A man who said he was a nurse came in and started going through my things and took my meds away. I was given a few personal items like a brush, deodorant, etc. and left alone. There were no instructions, tour, rules explained or anything. No one talked to me or offered to help me in any way. They have one bathing room for all the patients. I felt like I was in a horror movie[‘one flew over the cuckoos nest’ came to mind]. I decided that this place was not where I wanted to be and asked to go home. At first, they said no, but I know my rights and finally left.

Never put your loved one in this facility. My Mother is handicapped and has multiple medical issues. The facility is pleasant when you walk into the front, but the nursing home area always smells of urine, carpets are stained, air conditioning in the east hall does not work making the working conditions unbearable.
Many of the Caretakers are just there temporarily to get the bonus money and leave after 3 months. Administration will never give you a callback and the Administrator changes every three months. Definitely understaffed but the caretakers are found standing in the halls laughing and chatting, not answering the lights.
Before I moved my Mother out of there, she was told numerous times that there was no hot water or clean towels and she could not have a shower.
Food was never served in a timely manner and was cold and unappetizing and unappealing.
Aids were often disrespectful to the patients and the patients were scared to report to the authorities for fear of retaliation. Patients were told not to push the button for help all the time. My Mother was taken to the hospital due to urinary tract infection, pneumonia and a falling incident due to a caretaker telling her to hurry up and get dressed.
Money and personal items were frequently stolen from her room.
Rooms are nice but small. Two patients to each room. Private bath in each room.
The STAR employee was the activity director who always had fun and interesting activities for the patients and truly cared for them. The bus to take the patients to activities or to the store, was most often not available, due to the home not paying the rental fee for the bus.
When I saw incidents involving other patients I would report to nurses. Patients were to scared to say anything. I contacted the state Ombudsman and reported issues but never saw a resolution to the problems.

My sister-in-law started out at Austin Wellness and Rehabilitation. It’s just depressing, and I really wanted to find some place for her that is cheerier and not so grim. It’s sad visiting her. It wasn’t secure enough for her. She kept leaving or trying to leave, that’s why she had to go to the other nursing facility. She moved in early March of last year, then they had a lockdown. I was able to visit her and had dinner with her each night for 2 or 3 days after she got there, then after that, not at all. The place was fine, but it felt like a hospital ward.
Her room was fine. It had two beds in it, but she was the only one in there originally, then she got a roommate later. I would like to find a place that meets her needs that feels homier. The staff seemed fine, but I didn’t see any activity. I didn’t have a lot of opportunities to visit. I was only there the first 2 or 3 evenings she was there. The nice thing was I was able to join her for dinner. I paid for dinner and ate with her, which I liked. The food was good. Then, the lockdown came, so I don’t know about any activity there and there were none that I observed. I didn’t see the dining room. I just ate with her in her room.

I would not recommend this facility to anyone. My mother was diagnosed with cancer and was a resident here. As her conditioned worsened, the staff ignored her. Many times I would come to visit my mother she was dirty and/or left unattended. The facility always smelled of urine and the staff took their time tending to the residents.

The rooms are small. Roaches crawling behind my fathers bed and room filthy. Staff seemed like it was a chore on a daily basis and not friendly at all. When my father transitioned to hospice this family member had to call to make sure he was being taken care of. No pillows for him and questionable nursing care made the experience very sad.

My sister-in-law is in the nursing home at Walnut Hills. From what I see, it’s not the best place where I would want to put my family member. The person I interacted with there is very nice, and the welcome was very pleasant. It was very good, but they’re not fast except for that one guy in the wing where she was. There were nights when she needed help in the bathroom that she had to do it on her own because nobody came to help her. The place is clean. I am looking for a hospital bed for my sister-in-law to donate to them because I think nobody needs to be on that bed since it belongs to the trash. They need better consideration of the elderly, but I think the pricing is good. She shares a room with somebody else, and there’s just a bed, nightstand, and closet.

Financial Assistance for Nursing Home Care in Round Rock, Texas
Many seniors and their families use some form of financial assistance to help them pay for nursing care. The main options available are Medicare, Medicaid, and veterans benefits. 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.
- Medicare: Medicare will typically cover all skilled nursing costs for the first 20 days of one’s stay in a nursing home and a portion of the costs until day 100. After 100 days in a skilled nursing facility, Medicare will not cover any part of the cost of the stay. While this is adequate when short-term care is needed, those in need of long-term care will need to either pay out-of-pocket or use another source of financial assistance.
- Medicaid: Medicaid covers most of the costs of living in a skilled nursing facility for those who qualify. Care, room, and board are covered with no time limit, but residents may be charged for extras like specially prepared food or cosmetic services. Medicaid eligibility standards are strict and complex, so not all seniors are eligible for Medicaid benefits.
- Veterans Benefits: Veterans receiving a VA pension may also be eligible for the Aid and Attendance benefit administered by the VA. Aid and Attendance is a monthly allowance that beneficiaries may use to pay for their long-term care, including 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.
