Southpark Meadows Nursing and Rehabilitation Center

Southpark Meadows Nursing and Rehabilitation Center sits in the Slaughter Creek area of Austin at 9801 S 1st St, and is a single-story building where people can get 24/7 skilled nursing care, whether they need long-term support, help recovering from surgery, or short-term rehab after a hospital stay, and even folks who need hospice find care aimed at comfort near the end of life, which makes this place cover a wide range of health and daily care needs for older adults. The staff knows how to work with people who need memory care, such as those with Alzheimer's or dementia, and they've built a secure memory support unit so residents are safe, and offer personalized care using individual treatment plans made by a team with a good reputation for professionalism and compassion, something many families value. Residents can choose private or semi-private rooms, and Medicaid is accepted, which helps some folks who need financial support, and the center's gotten multiple accreditations over the years showing it meets healthcare standards. People who live here can get physical, occupational, and speech therapy, both short-term and ongoing, plus special care after joint replacement, stroke, heart problems, or for wound treatment and tube feeding, and home health services aim to help residents regain or keep their independence in their own home, too. For daily living, there's regular dining service, housekeeping, and all sorts of activities-from exercise and health programs to recreational and social events that give folks something to do each day, and for a little comfort or pampering there's a beauty salon, WiFi, cable TV, and an outdoor courtyard to sit in when the weather is nice. Transportation gets residents out to appointments or errands, and a secure building with parking and accessible entrances makes visits easy for families and caregivers. Respite care is on offer when someone only needs a short stay, so caregivers can get some time off, and they stay prepared for new admissions all week. Southpark Meadows aims to support dignity and respect for residents and their families, and though some details on certain services and building amenities aren't fully available, the center's dedicated team and range of services mean most people with nursing or rehabilitation needs-including memory care-can find the right kind of support and comfort in a setting that has served the Austin community for several years.
