Questions to ask when you tour
Memory-care certification scope
The state certifies 23 beds for memory care through January 2027 — ask which specific unit or wing those beds occupy and what criteria determine placement there.
Type B license and care limits
A Texas Type B license permits residents who need staff assistance to evacuate; ask what level of physical or cognitive decline would require a transfer to a higher-care setting.
Lifespace management role
Day-to-day operations are managed by Lifespace Communities, Inc rather than the licensed nonprofit owner — ask how decisions about staffing, care policies, and fees are divided between the two organizations.
Private-pay-only financial model
No beds are designated for Medicaid, so ask what happens to a resident who exhausts private funds and whether any financial-assistance programs exist through the nonprofit licensee.
Occupancy and waitlist status
With 73 licensed beds, ask the current occupancy number and whether there is a waitlist for either the general assisted-living or the memory-care unit specifically.
