Stone Brook Assisted Living & Memory Care in Denison, Texas, sits on attractive, well-kept grounds and offers seniors a safe, quiet place to live with friendly staff and a family-like community spirit, where folks greet each other and enjoy living together. The ranch-style residence provides both assisted living and memory care, each with different levels of support, so one might see residents who need a little help with bathing or grooming, and others who live with dementia getting extra care and close supervision, and the staff are ready all day and night, with nurses on hand and a doctor on call if needed. Apartments come in several floor plans, including studios, one-bedrooms, and companion suites, some with kitchenettes, private baths, closets, cable TV, Wi-Fi, and emergency call systems, and there are private and semi-private rooms for both privacy and companionship, with wheelchair accessible showers for safety.
The place has many comforts, like fireplaced living rooms, TV lounges, a puzzle room, a library, a beauty salon with a visiting beautician every week and a barber shop, and guests can find their meals in a dining room that looks a bit like a nice hotel with tablecloths, or take meals in their rooms, with three chef-prepared meals served daily, snacks between meals, and menus that include special diets for diabetes or high blood pressure, along with some international food to keep things interesting. Pets like cats and dogs are welcome, and the grounds have raised gardening beds, courtyards, walking paths, and outdoor gathering spaces for those who like to get some air or work in the garden. There's plenty of parking for residents and guests, and transportation services are available, including complimentary rides for local errands or appointments, plus scheduled trips and outings, so residents can get out for shopping or enjoy group activities.
Residents have daily chances to join arts and crafts, brain fitness classes, exercise like stretching or yoga, games and puzzles, music, gardening, movie nights, holiday events, and community service projects. The full-time activity director organizes devotional services both on-site and off, and makes sure there's something on the calendar to keep folks engaged, so even those coming for a short respite program after an illness or surgery find social time and help with meals and care, sometimes for a day or a few weeks. Stone Brook pays close attention to safety, with secured buildings and technology like alarm bracelets for memory care residents who might wander, with staff trained for Alzheimer's and dementia behaviors, including help with medications, blood sugar checks, and all kinds of assistance, right up to mechanical lifts, incontinence care, hospice, and specialized therapy.
Everyone gets a personalized care plan after a full assessment, with regular updates, and the team focus on dignity, respect, and trying to keep residents as independent as they can be, helping with what's needed but promoting choice and privacy. The all-inclusive rate covers meals, housekeeping, laundry, daily support with activities like bathing, dressing, and reminders, and there's financial guidance for families sorting out costs. The community, licensed as an assisted living facility (ALF#000463), welcomes folks from north Texas and southern Oklahoma, including those needing more care who want to stay in a comfortable setting with flexible help, aging in place, and plenty of chances to enjoy good meals, companionship, and pleasant surroundings.
