The Best Senior Living Communities in Claude, TX

"Jan Werner Adult Day Care was very good. They're very caring and very supportive towards helping me. They welcomed me. They did a very good job, but my husband is just very independent. The dining room area was really big, and they had their activities there. You can go outside if you want to. They have a game room that you can go to or an exercise room or a library. There were different activities that you could do throughout. They were really free to do wherever they wanted to. "

"My mother is going to Park Central Community. We've gone up there to get an idea of her room and get some measurements. They gave us the tour and it was nice. They have so many activities to do. They have a five-star restaurant. They had a lot of outings, so they can get out and do things, just more than I think anyone can imagine. There are different buildings and she'll be in the independent one right now. Later on, she might need to move over to the assisted if she needs more nursing care. They have an Alzheimer's unit as well. The residents we saw were about to play bunco. There were several elderly people and you have to be 62 to move in. They also have apartments. I'm 60, and I may think about moving into those apartments and you can continue to work. There were people eating. They have a certain time for everybody to come and eat in the dining room. If it's past that time, they can order room service. They have a hamburger sandwich shop. They have a convenience store that has cooked food also. There was an exercise place. There were women and men in there exercising, and they had someone there to watch and make sure that they were exercising properly. They had a washing machine and dryer on their floor. They had different seating areas. They tell my mom that she can sit anywhere, that that was her home, not just the apartment above, but downstairs as well. They had a library. They had a place where she could get her hair done, her nails, and her feet. She could make appointments. There's just a whole bunch. It'll help mom be more active. She's on a walker, so we're hoping that helps the circulation of her legs a little bit. They have a separate dining room that sits about ten maybe. If we have family coming in, we can make reservations. A waiter or waitress comes to us and gets our order. I just talked to our custodian the other day and she says she goes maybe two or three times a week and eats over at the dining room because it's open to the public at certain times. The staff was awesome and very friendly. Even the residents that live there kept introducing themselves to my mom. I think the challenge will be for her to remember everybody. The facility was very clean. They were actually in there cleaning her apartment at the time, so they do a thorough cleaning. My mom was excited when she saw the place."

"We went to check out the Dr Winfred And Elizabeth Moore Assisted Living Center on the advice of a friend, while in the area looking for places for our uncle to live. The buildings resemble a modern apartment structure. The furnishings in the formal communal areas were nice, if a bit stiff, but there was much more comfortable furniture in the resident focused rooms, where it really counts. For example, the living area had a nice, big sofa. There were also a number of easy chairs. The living quarters offer two different designs for studios -- one that has the living space divided, and the other in an open floor plan. We hadn't seen a choice for this size apartment before, so it is nice to have an option. We liked that there was an on-site wellness center, spa and pharmacy. They also offer pastoral care for residents. The staff is what is really exceptional at this facility. There is plenty to do -- and nothing is missing. But it is the care that the residents receive that is most important to us. Without that, we wouldn't care what else they had. We could see that they treat everyone with respect and dignity -- they develop meaningful relationships with their residents and families. That, to us, means more than anything. Because of that, we would strongly consider placing our uncle here to live, knowing that he will be well cared for in every way possible. "

"We moved to Harrington 3 weeks ago. We have a 2-bedroom apartment with 2 baths. We liked it. The staff treat us really well. The food is excellent, and we have a different menu at different times every day. We have all kinds of activities. We have movies and bible studies. It has really been nice for us. "

"The staff was incredibly kind and concerned for the care and comfort of my Dad. We looked at several nursing homes and Ware was by far our #1 choice. "

"I toured The Harrington at Park Central. You have to pay extra for meals, but there are several different facilities right there. You have a walkway or whatever you can walk through and get to them in different weather. It would be convenient if I didn't want to cook to have meals handy. It has a tiny, almost non-existent kitchen, but other than that, the facility was nice. It's two-story, and has two sides with courtyards on each side. One side is for people who don't have pets. The other side is for the people with pets. So, you have a place to take your pet out. It's very nice, clean, and well attended. There's no receptionist at night, but they have nurse navigators on staff, and you have the necklace with the buttons in case of an emergency. Things like that are provided, and any utilities like cable or any of that you would pay for at home are included. So, it makes it very convenient to have one bill. The only thing I didn't like was the kitchen. It's just one little strip, an apartment-sized fridge, dishwasher, and tiny sink. But, other than that, the closet was nice and big, the bathroom was nice, and the floor. Tina was excellent."
