Thrive Social & Wellness Center South Austin offers four levels of care—Assisted Living, Independent Living, Residential Care Home, and Memory Care—under one roof. Residents who wander, use oxygen, are younger than 60, or manage diabetes with oral medication can all be accommodated, and the community is equipped to serve individuals with moderate dementia. This range of clinical capabilities lets couples with differing needs remain in the same community and allows residents to move between care levels without relocating.
An RN or LPN is on staff, supported by caregivers who have passed background checks, an activity director, and 24-hour security personnel. The building’s front and rear yards are fenced, and alarmed doors provide an added safeguard for residents prone to exit-seeking. Daily assistance is offered with bathing, dressing, and toileting for those who need some physical help, while mealtime support is geared toward residents able to feed themselves. Transfer assistance covers walkers, wheelchairs, standby or supervised transfers, and hands-on one-person transfers.
Accommodations at Thrive range from private apartments suitable for independent living to rooms designed for higher care levels. Some units include accessible showers, emergency call systems, and in-room climate controls, but not every floor plan has every feature. All residences connect to common lounges, activity rooms, and outdoor areas, making it easy for residents to participate in daily programming or relax with visitors.
Dining follows a set menu that rotates regularly, with snacks available throughout the day. The kitchen can provide diet modifications such as thickened liquids, diabetic-friendly meals, or vegetarian options when ordered in advance. Staff monitor nutritional intake and coordinate with outside clinicians if special dietary adjustments become necessary.
Additional services include on-site resident parking, wheelchair-accessible pathways, and concierge assistance for scheduling appointments or arranging transportation. The campus is close to public transit and offers its own shuttle for group outings and medical visits. Residents can enjoy communal gardens, join special-interest clubs, and designated outdoor smoking areas. Thrive South Austin accepts Medicaid and Veterans benefits, helping families manage long-term costs.
