Light Heart Memory Care in Pearland, TX operates as both an assisted-living residence and a small residential care home, allowing it to tailor support levels for older adults who need daily help as well as those living with advanced dementia. The community is secured to reduce wandering and elopement risk, and staff are trained to manage behaviors that can accompany cognitive decline, including agitation, nighttime wakefulness, and combativeness. Residents with diabetes—whether on oral medications, injections, or sliding-scale regimens—receive monitoring and intervention as ordered. Oxygen management, special diets, and acceptance of younger adults under 60 round out a care model designed to adapt to varied health profiles.
Medical oversight is strengthened by regular on-site visits from podiatry and dental clinicians, a visiting primary-care provider, mobile optometry, and mobile X-ray services. Medication management is handled in-house, and the community accepts residents with PEG tubes and urostomies. Staff provide full assistance with bathing, dressing, eating, and toileting. Mobility support spans standby supervision to two-person transfers and full Hoyer-lift moves, accommodating residents who use walkers, wheelchairs, or who are bed bound.
Private and shared rooms can be furnished or personalized with a resident’s own décor, and some areas permit painting for added customization; not all rooms include every option. Housekeeping and scheduled laundry services are part of the basic package. Meals follow a set menu, but the kitchen team prepares modified textures such as mechanical-chopped, puréed, or thickened-liquid diets, and can handle vegetarian, vegan, and other physician-ordered nutritional plans. Snacks are kept available throughout the day.
Residents have access to off-street parking, wide doorways and ramps for wheelchair users, an in-house barber and beauty salon, community Wi-Fi, and landscaped gardens. A back-up power generator supports essential services during outages, helping maintain consistent care.
