New Haven Assisted Living and Memory Care of Schertz is a senior living community licensed for 16 residents, so you get a homey place where people know each other and staff keep things personal. The building is small, comfortable, and kept clean, with private suites and shared rooms, all set up with private bathrooms, kitchenettes, air conditioning, phones, internet, and cable. Meals come three times a day, prepared with organic food and balanced nutrition, and there's room service and restaurant-style dining if you like eating in your room or with friends. Housekeeping keeps things clean and handles all the linens, and staff take care of cooking, cleaning, and home upkeep, so life becomes more maintenance-free.
There's a 24-hour call system and supervision by staff who have multi-phased training and go through regular background checks, plus there's always someone there day or night to help with daily activities like bathing, dressing, or eating, and nurses and a doctor you can call for health or medication questions. You get transportation to doctor appointments, and the place can help arrange outings, take you for errands, or offer resident parking if you drive. The community is wheelchair accessible with accessible showers and tubs, and fits those needing help transferring, with special equipment if someone can't move on their own.
They do well by folks with Alzheimer's, dementia, or memory issues, with a special memory care building set apart and kept secure, and they use bracelets that ring alarms to prevent wandering. Staff provide extra help to people who might have behavioral problems or wander, and there's a reminiscence program and cognitive learning center to keep minds engaged, plus reminders for those who need a nudge to go to activities or meals. Diabetes and incontinence care are available, even help with insulin and monitoring blood sugar. Pets like cats and dogs are allowed, so you can sometimes keep your companion.
Activities run every day, mostly resident-run, so people get engaged, with indoor and outdoor common areas, walking paths, art classes, brain fitness, stretching, yoga, cooking, and talks, along with devotional services and intergenerational events. You can choose your level of care and stay put as your needs change, whether you want something light and independent, full assisted living, or specialized memory care. They handle respite stays, too, so families can get a break or try the place out. Everyone gets individualized attention, with programs made to help with quality of life and independence, and all the extras like Wi-Fi, beauty services, and therapy staff who come on site. The whole idea is to give support whenever it's needed, keep people safe, and let them enjoy their days at their own pace in a setting that feels like home, all within a licensed Texas community.
