Southern Hospitality Home sits in the quiet, tree-lined streets of the central Austin neighborhood of Allandale, right across from parklands, where level sidewalks make it easier for folks to take walks and get some fresh air, and the single-story building helps people get around without stairs, so there's less worry about trips and falls, and you can find private or shared rooms, each furnished with comfort in mind, and baths, tubs, and wheelchair-accessible showers are available for those who need them, and it's a smoke-free place so the air stays clean. This small, private, State of Texas licensed residence, License #149793, can care for up to fifteen elder or differently abled adults, including those living with memory loss or mild to moderate dementia, or people who have conditions like depression, stroke limitations, Parkinson's, or need high acuity care, and there are services for assisted living, memory care, non-ambulatory care, and incontinence care, as well as respite or short-term care when a loved one needs a break or families need help for a while.
The team of licensed, certified, and professionally trained caregivers is available around the clock, with awake overnight staff, keeping a close staff-to-resident ratio so each person gets plenty of attention, and help's always there for things like bathing, dressing, getting around, and daily tasks, and medication management is supervised by a registered nurse, plus a board-certified internist comes for medical checkups. Healthy, chef-prepared meals, low in sodium and saturated fat but high in fiber, come with vegetarian and diabetic options, and special diets can be followed if needed, so nearly everyone can sit together in the dining room, and there's always heart-healthy food ready, every day, with snacks around and all-day dining for flexible routines, and weekly half-hour massages from a licensed therapist are part of the schedule along with Medicare-reimbursed in-home rehabilitation therapies, as well as regular toileting and housekeeping to keep things clean and safe.
Southern Hospitality Home prides itself on creating a warm, home-like atmosphere where routines matter and companionship feels real, and the Activities Program Director, with a background in Gerontology since 1998, makes sure every day has something to do-there are cognitive games like trivia and Hangman, group baking clubs, music, supervised exercise, plus outdoor strolls along neighborhood walking paths and garden time, and there are always seasonal festivities and holiday observances to look forward to, plus movie nights and opportunities for social interaction and mental stimulation, even beautician services right there, and transportation and parking so folks can get to appointments or outings. Security matters, so there's a fully automated fire sprinkler system in every room-including closets and bathrooms-as well as regular emergency evacuation training, so families can feel a bit more peace about safety, and with move-in coordination, laundry, and weekly housekeeping, life's as easy as possible, and the staff all work to honor each resident with acceptance and individual attention, making sure that every care plan fits each person. With its peaceful surroundings, easy access to shopping, city amenities, and hospitals, Southern Hospitality Home's been serving the Austin community since December 1996, offering a calm and comforting place that focuses on health, safety, respect, and the value of each resident's life.
