Austin Gardens Senior Living

Austin Gardens Senior Living sits in Austin, Texas and cares for up to 12 residents in a single-story building with private suites, and you'll notice a family-like feeling because staff and residents all know each other by name and, for folks who like animals, pets can stay too, which always seems nice walking around the beautiful gardens and paths. You get a mix of care here, with independent living for folks wanting a little help and privacy, then assisted living if you need hands-on help with things like bathing, dressing, or taking medicine, plus there's memory care for Alzheimer's and dementia, and nursing care for ongoing medical needs including Parkinson's, diabetes, incontinence, and high-acuity issues, and they'll work alongside your outside healthcare providers. The staff-to-resident ratio is one to two, so you see lots of personal attention and there's always someone around, day and night, taking care of what's needed, whether it's managing medication, helping with daily tasks, watching out for wandering, or just checking in with you, which allows people to keep as independent as possible. The whole place has a home-like style with rooms some call "private suites," some with kitchenettes for folks wanting their own cooking spot, and you get nutritious meals matched for your taste or diet, plus regular housekeeping, high-speed Wi-Fi, and handicap-accessible spaces. For fun, they've got movie nights, special events, and a full calendar of programs that keep things lively, and you see people enjoying the outdoors or talking together in the common areas, and anyone wanting to bring their pet will find that welcome here. The community also gives out consumer information for free, offers guided help when you look into moving in, and has a local advisor on hand to answer detailed questions about care and prices, though those prices they keep unpublished so you'll have to ask. Austin Gardens Senior Living has reviews from families with a 4.0 star and sometimes a five-star rating across eight reviews, showing general satisfaction with the way people are looked after. They're open weekdays 8AM to 9PM and weekends 8AM to 5:30PM, and overall, this is a place where care and comfort come first in a simple, friendly setting.
