Liberty Island Personal Care Home in Houston, Texas, can help seniors who need assisted living and memory care in a home-like setting, and you'll find one-bedroom suites, studio units, and communal living available, so whether a person lives alone or wants to spend more time around others, there's an option for them, and these rooms have all appliances, flat screen TVs, and ADA-compliant bathrooms for easier use, with all utilities, housekeeping, laundry, and trash pickup included, so no one needs to keep up with bills or chores like before, which can make things much easier as you get older. The staff can help with dressing, showering, toileting, and transfers, and they have training for Parkinson's care, Alzheimer's, and dementia, so if memory or mobility grows tricky over time, they're able to adjust care through individual plans, and residents can get help with medication, meals, insulin checks, weight management, and continence care, plus a nurse is on call day or night if health problems come up, and regular doctor assessments help keep up with changes in health.
The community has daily activities that range from bingo to games, movie nights, gardening, music therapy, walking trails, and creative arts and crafts, and anyone who wants to stay busy can join in educational or spiritual programs, join family gatherings, or spend quiet time in the library, beauty shop, or gardens, and there's a wellness center, salon, and even a snack shop for extra treats between the three chef-prepared meals each day, and if someone has a special diet because of diabetes or high blood pressure, a registered dietitian can see that meals meet those needs. Residents can also get manual or dining assistance, and for those who have trouble moving or who use a wheelchair, staff can help with getting around, showers, or getting out of bed, plus there are secured apartments and grounds for safety, easy walking paths, and pets are welcome, too.
There's help with moving in, and transportation to appointments or shopping is possible, though it's best to check with staff about the schedule, and if someone needs help feeding, with insulin, or ongoing therapy like massage, that's available depending on the care plan. The community can support up to 74 people, with a large care community counted for up to 36; how many live there varies. Liberty Island Personal Care Home works under Texas Department of Social Services rules, and takes private pay, long-term care insurance, and Veterans Aid and Attendance. The cost for assisted living starts at $3,000 a month and changes depending on the level of care, room choice, and what extras a person might need, and all meals, most activities, and utilities come with the price. Folks here find a loving environment with help for daily care needs, entertainment, personal grooming, and ways to stay active or social, and the well-trained staff is always nearby to help with little things or bigger challenges as they come up, so life doesn't have to be as hard as it sometimes gets when you're older and living alone.
