Changing Seasons Retirement & Assisted Living sits out west of San Antonio in the Texas Hill Country, with spots on Old Highway 90 in Castroville, Danny Kaye Drive, and Blanco Road in San Antonio, and you'll see it's a place for seniors who want both help and some comfort-there are private studio apartments, furnished rooms, and beautiful, landscaped grounds with plenty of walking paths, which does make getting fresh air and some sunshine pretty easy even if you don't feel up to a long stroll. The facility serves up three home-cooked meals a day and snacks, and the kitchen takes care to handle allergies and diabetes needs, so folks get safe food on a schedule in the main dining room, and every room stays clean since there's housekeeping and laundry services rolled in, plus staff can help with bathing, dressing, transfers, and getting medicine on time.
Changing Seasons handles assisted living, memory care, independent living, and home care for seniors, and it's a licensed Texas facility that can support up to 16 residents at a time, so it feels more homey and less crowded than some bigger places, and staff are present 24 hours a day, with video monitoring and locked units for anyone with Alzheimer's or dementia needing safer spaces, which is a comfort to families. The grounds are quiet, shady, and close to local shops, pharmacies, and stores, and there are organized activities like chair exercises, music, holiday parties, group games, and outings, plus memory care activities geared for residents' own abilities, and staff always help where needed with walking, eating, grooming, and all those daily tasks that can get tough.
You'll find technology set up for seniors including cell phones, internet, hearing aids, ID theft protection, and medical alert systems-the options include Bay Alarm Medical, Medical Guardian, and ADT-besides walk-in tubs, medication dispensers, and home security, which all keep things safer. Staff work with outside health care providers and set up individualized care plans, and care goes from basic companionship to nursing and high-acuity medical needs, up through incontinence and diabetic care, so residents don't have to move as their health changes. Families tend to recommend this place for how helpful and friendly staff are, and reviews rate it around 8.2 out of 10 for its clean, bright spaces, good meals, cheerful atmosphere, and value.
Cognitive and mental well-being matter here, with specialized memory care for people with different types of dementia, and events often link up with the nearby community for socializing, so people don't feel alone. It's all open every day from 9:00 am to 5:00 pm, and whether someone needs just a little help or a lot, Changing Seasons Retirement & Assisted Living fits different needs as folks grow older.
