Questions to ask when you tour
Memory care program structure
With all 15 beds designated for memory care, ask how the program is staffed differently from general assisted living and what specialized training staff receive.
Recent license reissuance
The current license began February 8, 2025 — ask whether the reissuance reflects a change in ownership, physical plant, or program scope, and what carried over from the prior operation.
Nonprofit and management company roles
Baptist Memorials Ministries holds the license while Buckner Retirement Services manages day-to-day operations — ask how decisions about staffing, care policies, and budgets are made between the two organizations.
Staffing ratios for a 15-bed community
At 15 residents, ask how many staff are on-site during each shift, including overnight, and what happens when a staff member calls out.
Transition and discharge criteria
Ask at what point a resident's needs would exceed what this community can provide, and what the discharge and transition process looks like.
