Hibiscus Residential Care Home sits in a quiet part of South Arlington, Texas, with room for up to six residents at a time, which makes the place feel calm and home-like rather than big and crowded, and folks there can pick from apartments, studios, shared rooms, or one-bedroom suites, and the building itself has only one story so there aren't any stairs to worry about. The home's known for its experienced care team, Winston and Monica, who give round-the-clock help with things like dressing, showering, eating, and taking medicine, and they also support people dealing with Parkinson's, continence needs, diabetes, and memory problems; they call in a nurse who's at the home at all hours, plus a doctor, dentist, and podiatrist stop by once a month for regular checkups. Residents get three home-cooked meals a day served like in a restaurant, and the kitchen can make special dishes for those who need them, like folks with high blood pressure or diabetes. There's always someone around to help, and all apartments have panic buttons to call for help whenever needed, with the added safety of 24/7 security and keyless keypad entries.
The home comes with a lot of extras for comfort and daily living, such as a library, movie theater room, computer room, and clean, quiet spaces for reading or just relaxing, not to mention barbershop and salon services, fitness center, therapy room, and transportation for errands or doctor's appointments, and they handle things like home repairs, cleaning, and laundry so families don't need to worry about those chores. Seniors can join in arts and crafts, music programs, religious devotions, holiday parties, board games, pet therapy, regular social trips, and group outings, both onsite and away, and pets are always welcome. Other helpful bits include scheduled activities, snacks between meals, and optional concierge support for personal tasks. The staff is always on hand, and visiting hours stay flexible so families can drop by when they like without hassle.
People there get their mail handled, their bathrooms cleaned, and appliances fixed if something goes wrong, and all utility bills and cable TV are rolled into the monthly price. Residents pay around $4,353 each month for these services in a place that's been open since 2006 and holds a Texas license. The home has a no smoking policy indoors, and the bathrooms are all accessible for those using wheelchairs. There are plenty of safe outdoor spots too, and folks who like animals can keep pets. Hibiscus sits near pharmacies, churches, shopping centers, and hospitals-including Methodist Mansfield and Medical Center of Arlington-and it's easy to get to cities like Dallas, Plano, and Irving.
Seniors at Hibiscus benefit from attentive care for things big and small, including spoon feeding if needed, help with bathing, and even medication routines, and all services focus on keeping people independent while making sure everyone is safe and cared for in a gentle, respectful way. The home also offers hospice and respite services, so families get a break or extra help at hard times. The place tries hard to create a peaceful, happy environment, with staff known for their patience and kindness, and it fits best for those wanting a small, friendly setting with lots of help and a welcoming, family-like feel.
