Caraday of Mesquite sits in Mesquite, TX, offering several living choices like assisted living, independent living, memory care, and a skilled nursing home, so seniors can live with as much support as they need, and there's always staff nearby all day and night keeping an eye out. The campus has everything needed for comfort and safety, with wide halls and handicap features, sprinkler systems, security set-ups, and easy access for visitors, and all the rooms, whether private or shared, have cable TV, WiFi, kitchens or kitchenettes, and regular housekeeping and maintenance, so people don't have to fuss with chores. There's plenty to do as the building's got activities rooms, fitness equipment, hair salon, and places for arts and crafts or learning groups, plus guests can join in meals served in the dining room, which aims to keep folks eating well and enjoying their food. The care here fits a range of needs, including help with dressing, bathing, and medicine, plus they've got laundry, dry cleaning, and even transportation if someone needs to go out. For health, there are nurses on site, wound care, medication support, physical, speech, and occupational therapy, care for diabetes and strokes, IV therapy, podiatry, and regular therapy after a hospital stay or for long-term care, along with memory care units for folks with Alzheimer's and other dementia, and there's a focus on keeping each person working at their best level. They help with hospice care, respite, and behavior health, too, and the team works together on care plans, reviewing everything within a week of someone arriving, so nothing important is missed. There's independent living for older adults who want no maintenance but still want some company, so active seniors can join community activities or wellness programs, but those who need round-the-clock nursing or a live-in helper can get that, too, with skilled care for recovery and complex health conditions, all in a quieter, more homelike setting.
Rooms go from studios up to two bedrooms, and rates depend on type and care-nursing rooms range from $5,500 to $9,000 a month, memory care units from $5,000 to $6,500, and independent or assisted living from $2,500 up to $7,000, with the facility accepting Medicare and Medicaid and offering long-term care insurance options. The community averages around 50 residents each day, offers 149 certified beds, and has about 3.47 nursing hours per resident per day, though reports show about 41% nurse turnover, and inspection findings include some noted safety and infection-related issues, so it's worth looking at those when deciding, but staff here have a reputation for being friendly and helpful, and residents generally find the place cheerful and calm. Management is by Caraday Mesquite LLC since January 2024, and care teams stay interdisciplinary, so nurses, aides, rehab specialists, and other experts all have a say in what works best for each person here. Daily life feels as easygoing as possible, with guest parking, shared living spaces, help as needed, transportation service, and a focus on living as well as one can, even for folks with memory challenges or advanced medical needs.
