Premier Assisted Living Residential Care Home sits near Hollywood Park in North Central San Antonio, Texas, and has a home-like, bed and breakfast feel, where only six residents live together, so everyone gets a good amount of attention with a high caregiver-to-resident ratio, about one caregiver for every three residents, and the owner is a Registered Nurse with over 30 years of experience in geriatrics, case management, and senior living, which does bring some peace of mind. The home offers round-the-clock care and supervision from live-in housekeepers and personal care assistants, with help for daily activities like bathing, dressing, medicine management, meals, and transferring, and there's always someone around for things like laundry, cleaning, and cooking, plus they take care of all the services like room cleaning and linens for you, and even offer pet sitting and allow some pets, which a lot of folks appreciate when they don't want to be separated from their animals.
The place is a single-story residential building, State-licensed for six beds with private, fully furnished rooms, and it focuses on safety with security cameras, fire alarms, a sprinkler system, and round-the-clock supervision. Residents get three prepared meals every day, snacks, and diet choices including low-salt, low-fat, vegetarian, kosher, and meals for people with kidney concerns or diabetes. Nurses, companion caregivers, and even psychiatric care are on staff, and they have both respite and hospice care and palliative support, plus staff are always getting extra training on care and infection control practices, which has mattered to many families during hard times. Having all-inclusive pricing adds a bit of predictability when it comes to costs, and the home accepts VA Aid and Assistance, insurance, and check payments. For those that want spiritual connection, there are in-house religious services.
For activities, there's always something going on, with daily games like cards and dominoes, reading sessions, music, movies, gardening clubs, story time, arts and crafts, and sometimes time outdoors, especially when the deer wander by. Residents can join Tai Chi and yoga/stretching for fitness, and they have common spaces like a recreation room, TV areas, and outdoor patios for relaxing or socializing, which does help everyone feel at home. With cable, Wi-Fi, guest dining, room service, and parking on site, families find it easy to visit, too. The staff can help with care transitions, whether it's a hospital visit or moving from rehab, and they'll work with residents and families to build personalized care plans so each person's needs get met. For those who need memory care, the place offers Alzheimer's-specific support, mental health care, and therapeutic activities.
Many staff members speak English and Spanish, and occupational therapist visits are scheduled for residents when needed, plus an in-house pharmacy makes getting medicine easier. The home runs like a family, and the small size really helps staff get to know each person, making it a steady and personal kind of place for those needing assisted living in a quiet neighborhood.
