Menox Care Assisted Living sits on Vialinda Drive in Houston with space for up to seven residents, making the place feel much more like a home than a big facility, and it's got room for dogs so folks can bring their pets for company, which can help keep spirits up. The living spaces come already furnished, but residents can bring in their favorite decorations or furniture if they want, and every room has either a private or semi-private option, along with its own bathroom so nobody has to wait. Menox Care offers assistance with daily needs like bathing, dressing, moving from place to place, and even full help for those who use wheelchairs or have high medical needs, plus there's always someone around since staff are on duty 24 hours a day and they handle medication management, grooming for diabetics, and incontinence care.
Meals get cooked right on site and served in the dining room, and people with special diets-diabetes, vegetarian needs, allergies-can get food that's safe and healthy, and the kitchen staff tries to make meals balanced and appealing. Housekeeping, laundry, and even dry cleaning are done for everyone, and all spaces, inside and out, are kept tidy and safe, which makes things easier for residents who want to spend time in the garden or outdoor spaces, or just rest inside in the common rooms where there's air conditioning, cable TV or satellite, and Wi-Fi. There are lots of organized activities, both inside and away from the building, everything from movie nights, gardening, trivia, walks on the landscaped grounds, to birthday and holiday parties, devotional services, community service programs, and even BBQs, so folks can feel busy and stay connected.
Menox Care Assisted Living has transportation for doctor's appointments and other errands, making it simple for residents to get where they need to go, and there's parking for those who have visitors. The community focuses on making personalized care plans for every person, working with healthcare providers to keep up with wellness and any changes in needs, and they welcome families to check credentials and license information themselves; the Menox Care team isn't verified by Care.com, but they do offer a Care.com Safety Center and they encourage everyone to do their own research.
For people needing memory care, respite care, help with dementia, or just a supportive, social place as they grow older, Menox Care offers a friendly staff and a small community that helps people get to know one another and the caregivers well. Private rooms cost $3,500 per month and semi-private rooms are $2,200, which includes all basic services, amenities, and meals, and with a current rating of 3.0 stars from three reviews, the community stands out mainly for its hands-on approach and its small, close-knit setting. Menox Care Assisted Living belongs to a network of care homes, working to give comfort and safety, and while it offers well-rounded senior care with a simple, homey feel, everyone should take time to look into reviews and licensing before making any big decisions.
