Sea Breeze Rehab And Nursing Center is doing very well with my mom. She’s improved and she’s happy there. She’s getting physical and occupational therapy. The only thing is, it’s hard visiting right now with COVID. You have to make an appointment and I can only see her three times a week. You have to wait and you can’t go in, and then they bring them outside, but they’ve been very wonderful. From the outside, they try to make the place happy. There are nice flowering shrubs with seating and there’s a courtyard that’s covered, so it’s comfortable.

My friend is in rehab at The Meridian. He moved in after his hospitalization. It seems very adequate. He has been progressing a bit in his ability to move around. I talked to the physical therapy people yesterday and we talked about what I need him to be able to do. They were very receptive to my input. I saw his food that he got and it looked delicious. He ate every bit of it, so that was good. They have been pretty responsive to my concerns and questions. He has only been there a week.
They are trying to be very observant of all of the anti-Covid restrictions and the facility was clean and neat. The room that he is in is a little bit out-dated, especially compared to some of the things I have seen (as I am a physician, so I know what a hospital looks like). It is very serviceable and it looks like a good place for a transitional facility. However, I have been asking to have a doctor-to-doctor talk and it has not occurred yet. I would like to know a little bit more specifics about my friend’s condition, knowing what I know about his previous condition. Everything else has been pretty good.

She hated to leave. Her room was beautiful. The nurses were nice. I love the girls in the quarantine area because I didn’t deal with anybody else in any of the other areas. As far as the nursing staff in the quarantine unit, they were just awesome. The facility was very nice.

The rooms are in poor shape. They had ceiling tiles that had water stains. The beds had worn sheets and bedspread. There were only maybe 1 or 2 employees that cared enough to try and give good care. Short staffed and bad attitude. We had to be there 24/7 just to make certain mom was seen to and even then it was bad.The PT and OT were the only ones who were professional. They are contract employees or at least were when my mom was there about two years ago. Bottom line, if you love your family member,this is not the place to take them. Unfortunately good and affordable rehab facilities are hard to find. Thank God she was there a short time just for rehab. We got her out as soon as we could . Don’t let the pics fool you. The rooms are drab.

My former mother-in-law and friend, Margaret has been at Cascades for years. She is now on hospice. The staff has always been helpful to me. The care I witnessed was good. Everyone there seems sincerely pleasant. I didn’t detect any stress among the staff or any of the other residents. I think the residents are well cared for. They have been very lenient with visitation during this difficult time for Margaret’s friends and family.

The Cost of Nursing Home Care in Nearby Cities
At an average monthly cost of $5,627, nursing home care in Texas City is more expensive than the Texas average of $5,019, but well below the national average of $7,756.
It’s common for care costs to vary within a state, and that’s especially true in Texas where nursing home rates range from a low of $4,091 in Longview up to a high of $6,350 in Brownsville. Semiprivate nursing home care costs an average of $5,201 per month in the state capitol, Austin, and $5,171 in Dallas.
The Cost of Other Types of Senior Care
Given that nursing homes provide specialized medical care to those with complex care needs, it’s easy to understand why nursing home care is the costliest long-term care option. Seniors who can safely remain in their own homes with support can expect to pay about $1,138 per month for adult day health care, and $4,290 for either a homemaker or home health aide. Nonmedical residential care in an assisted living facility costs an average of $4,750 per month.
Note: Data for Texas City was unavailable, so data for the nearest city, Houston, was used instead.
Financial Assistance for Nursing Home Care in Texas City, TX
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.
