Solstice Senior Living at Austin sits on nearly 40 acres in south Austin's Greenbelt, giving residents peaceful views and lots of nature while still being near city attractions, and you'll find that it's a place where people come to live in comfort and safety. The community has different types of living options, like independent living for people who want to manage most things on their own, assisted living if you need extra help with things like bathing or taking medicine, memory care for those dealing with Alzheimer's or dementia, skilled nursing if someone needs medical care, and continuing care retirement communities that let people move between levels of care without leaving the campus. There are studios, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom apartments, which all have walk-in showers, kitchens or kitchenettes, and you can have pets too, plus you don't have to worry much about chores because there's housekeeping, laundry, building maintenance, and transportation, and they'll help with meals, dressing, or personal care if you need it.
Solstice has plenty to do with things like the Vibrant Life® program, group fitness, arts and crafts, movies, games, pool, outings, worship services, and social events that help people stay active and connect with each other, and you'll see they offer both an art studio and an on-site theater where people can relax or try something new. They want residents eating well, so you'll find meals are served restaurant-style with menus planned by dietitians, and they're inspired by residents' tastes and home recipes, which makes the food feel a bit more personal and familiar. The grounds are pretty, with open spaces, gardens, and places to walk or sit outside, which makes it easier to enjoy fresh air and company.
There's a focus on health, safety, and staying well, with 24/7 urgent care access through MeMD telehealth, and they work with home-care agencies for help with things like medication reminders or shower assist, while people who need physical therapy or in-home assistance with daily activities can get that too, and there are always staff nearby if someone needs extra help. For those dealing with memory concerns, Solstice remains involved with education on dementia, ways to cope, companionship, and seeking extra help, sometimes through podcasts or shared resources, plus the memory care community gives support that fits each person's situation.
People can also join companion programs to build friendships, and the activity plans change so everyone has a chance to try something that fits their interests. Solstice offers information about assisted living decisions, simple healthy meal ideas, and staying active, so people can make good choices as they age. With transportation help, laundry, scheduled outings, and safety features around the place, residents can live with less worry and spend more time doing things that matter to them, which is what most folks look for when moving into a senior living community. The community's part of the Provincial Senior Living family and takes care to keep spaces modern and clean, with easy-to-use rooms and friendly common areas where people can gather, share a meal, play cards, or just sit together and enjoy the day, and that's pretty much what you get at Solstice Senior Living at Austin.
