Garden Terrace at Houston sits at 7887 Cambridge St., Houston, TX 77054, and offers a range of care for seniors, including nursing home, assisted living, memory care, independent living, respite, post-surgical care, in-home care, and residential care homes, which means folks can get long-term help whether they need daily assistance or higher-level medical help like IV therapy, fall prevention, or wound care, and the place has a focus on personalized care plans, medication management, and therapies like physical, occupational, and speech therapy set up by their in-house therapists and nurses, which is good for anyone recovering from surgery or managing ongoing health needs. The rooms come in private options, running $5,500 to $7,500 a month, or semi-private ones from $4,000 to $6,500, and they include things like kitchens or kitchenettes, laundry with on-site washers and dryers, safety features, and access to cable TV and Wi-Fi, so residents can keep up with the world or their favorite shows if they want to.
You'll find a dining room with meal service where breakfast and dinner follow a set menu, meaning residents get what's prepared rather than choose from lots of options, though folks do say the meals are nutritious, and people always seem to enjoy a warm dish together, plus housekeeping, laundry, and maintenance are handled by staff, and that's a relief for anyone who doesn't want to handle chores anymore. Garden Terrace focuses on helping with everyday needs, whether that's bathing, dressing, medication reminders, or wheelchair and walking assistance, and they even have transportation if a resident needs to get out and about, along with guest parking for visitors.
Seniors can socialize in the game and activities room, join in on arts and crafts, education programs, or take part in group exercise like rhythm band, singalongs, and current events discussions, and the community makes sure to offer something for everyone, so there's a sense of purpose and connection, especially with support groups and church services led by the chaplain, plus volunteers come by for reading, one-to-one visits, or writing letters. The place has a fitness center, salon, and barbershop, which helps folks look and feel their best, and people talk about the friendly staff as being joyful, supportive, and helpful-names like Beth, one of the therapy directors, stick out for their expertise.
When it comes to health, there's 24-hour skilled nursing care, memory care for folks with Alzheimer's or dementia, strong attention to fall prevention, and special therapies for those who need it, with discharge planning and case management to help families make decisions. Garden Terrace belongs to Life Care Centers of America and is linked with The Vosswood Nursing Center, backing up claims of trusted care and a charitable foundation, rather than just a business, and the community even posts updates on Facebook and has an online form for families to leave feedback. The physical setup uses a foyer and hall layout, includes guest parking, a sprinkler system for safety, and handicap-friendly features so it's easier for everyone to move around, and overall, Garden Terrace at Houston aims to provide a safe, comfortable place for seniors, where they get high-quality care and a chance to enjoy their days, even when their needs grow or change over time.
