Graceland Senior Living, located at 17228 Sandwick Drive in Pflugerville, Texas, is a small senior community offering assisted living, memory care, and long-term care, with licensing from DADS since June 2013 and room for up to eight residents, so it's got a more personal, homelike atmosphere, especially with a husband and wife team living onsite and being part of daily care and management. Residents can pick private or shared bedrooms, some with kitchenettes, and choose furnished or unfurnished setups, all with cable TV, telephone lines, Wi-Fi, and high-speed internet, and they've made the whole place pet friendly, so cats and dogs are welcome, too. Graceland covers many care needs including assisted living for those who need some help with daily things like bathing, dressing, and medication management, and it also runs Graceland Memory Care, which is a separate, secured area with special programs for those living with Alzheimer's or other dementia, using things like alarm bracelets to stop wandering and handling residents with behavior challenges, difficulties with transfers, or higher care needs. There's always a staff member awake 24 hours and behavioral specialists like Susan with training in psychology and education, plus healthcare professionals, therapists, and a doctor on call who all help cover complex care including diabetes care, insulin injections, incontinence care, mobility, and even hospice or respite stays.
The facility sits on the ground floor, with wheelchair accessible showers, bathtubs, pools, and gardens, making it easy to get outside for a walk or sit in the fresh air, and there are indoor areas like a theater room, bistro, arts and crafts space, and computer center to spend time with others or just relax. Graceland has a busy activity calendar with things like art and cooking classes, karaoke and live music thanks to Jeff the Elvis fan, movie nights, gardening, yoga, stretching, trivia, Wii bowling, wine tasting, and devotional services along with community service programs, so every day can feel a little different, and people get to do things they enjoy. There's help with meals, too, whether that's in the dining room or as room service, and they offer all kinds of meal options including gluten-free, vegetarian, vegan, organic, low salt, and allergy-sensitive menus, plus help for people with diabetes or special dietary needs, and snacks available all day. Residents can get help with laundry and housekeeping, have their pharmacy and haircuts onsite, and transportation is available for outings or doctor appointments, along with parking for those who need it.
Graceland is both pet and technology friendly, and the staff work to keep things safe and flexible for everyone, supporting people who want to stay as their needs change, so it feels steady and familiar. The reported average monthly cost is $830, which is fairly reasonable for the area, and the community holds a 3.5-star rating from four reviews, reflecting both its strengths and its areas to watch. With a close-knit setting, a team onsite day and night, lots of options for housing, activities, and care, and special attention for those needing memory care or higher acuity services, Graceland Senior Living tries to give people a safe, caring place to call home while keeping them active, comfortable, and supported.
