Questions to ask when you tour
Memory care unit access and criteria
The facility has 40 state-certified memory care beds — ask what diagnosis or functional level qualifies a resident for that unit versus the general assisted living floor.
Staffing ratios on the memory care unit
Memory care residents typically need more hands-on support; ask how many staff are assigned to the 40-bed memory care unit on day, evening, and overnight shifts.
Current bed availability
With 78 total licensed beds, ask how many are currently occupied and whether there is a waitlist for either the general or memory care unit.
Private-pay costs and what's included
No Medicaid beds are licensed here, so ask for a full fee schedule and exactly which services — medication management, incontinence care, transportation — are included versus billed separately.
Management company's role on site
Methodist Retirement Communities manages this facility under the nonprofit licensee Mrc Pinecrest — ask how decisions about staffing, programming, and care standards are made and by whom.
