Our House Memory Care I & II – Austin operates as an assisted-living community, giving residents help with the routine tasks they can no longer manage alone. Licensed staff coordinate care plans that address each person’s daily needs and medical profile. Diabetes management is available for residents who require monitoring or insulin support, and a speech therapist is on call to assist those with swallowing issues or communication challenges. Short-term or respite stays can be arranged when families need temporary placement while ensuring continuity of medical oversight.
The community’s secured environment is designed to reduce wandering risks and to add a layer of protection for residents who may be prone to cognitive confusion. Caregivers are on site around the clock to respond to emergencies, administer medications, and observe changes in health status that might need physician follow-up. This structure allows families to know their relatives are in a supervised setting with consistent safety measures.
Apartments are offered in several layouts, and not all units include every feature listed by the community. Some residences provide in-unit washers and dryers, while others rely on shared laundry areas. Pet-friendly policies may allow residents to bring a companion animal, and select units include wheelchair-accessible showers to improve safety during bathing. Basic housekeeping, Wi-Fi, parking, access to outdoor garden spaces, and well-kept common areas are available to help residents maintain comfort and mobility.
Meals are prepared daily and served to meet the nutritional needs typical for older adults, with staff able to accommodate physician-ordered dietary guidelines such as carbohydrate-controlled menus for diabetes. Residents who prefer to dine in their apartment can arrange tray service, and hydration checks are part of routine care to minimize the risk of dehydration.
Residents have access to an activity center where scheduled programs range from arts and crafts sessions to small group discussions. Outdoor areas are available for supervised walks or individual relaxation, encouraging fresh air and mild exercise when weather permits. These services aim to keep residents engaged and socially connected while living at the community.
