Royal Estates of El Paso

Royal Estates Of El Paso has closed its doors and doesn't have information available about its services or amenities anymore, but for almost 20 years, this senior living community served West El Paso's older adults with a range of care options, and it was licensed by the state of Texas for up to 70 residents, so you could find things like independent living if you didn't need help, or assisted living with help for daily activities like bathing or dressing, and even memory care for those dealing with Alzheimer's or dementia, and for folks who needed more, the place offered skilled nursing, therapy services, and even hospice or respite care on site. The apartments included options like studio, single rooms, semi-private spaces, and 2-bedroom layouts, plus they let folks bring some pets along to live with them, and residents could decorate their rooms as they liked. There was free transportation, an entry fee, a nurse on staff, a doctor on call, and they made sure someone was always around with 24-hour supervision and a call system in case someone needed help, and the facility had a wheelchair accessible shower, plus no smoking allowed in the indoor spaces. The place had services like on-site haircuts, business center, library, fitness room, a spa area, game room, walking paths, and a garden, with both indoor and outdoor common spaces where people could spend time, and a dining room where everyone could eat together. Folks could join all sorts of programs and activities every day, organized by a Resident Program Director who took care of outings and events, and there were religious services on-site and off-site too. The staff could help with medication, transfers, and non-ambulatory care, and homecare providers, a dentist, and therapy professionals all visited as needed. They let residents enjoy offsite activities for variety, and places to park if you drove. For people who had pets, the rules allowed some animals, but the building itself didn't let smoking indoors. The community aimed for a hospitality-centered environment, but everything came with an entry fee and a minimum age requirement of 55 and up, and the care options could change as each person's needs changed, helping folks move through different levels of care without having to leave the place they called home. Since the doors are now closed, there isn't any way to move in or sign up for services, but the place spent many years helping seniors with anything from active retirement to memory support.
