Fireside Lodge Retirement Center sits at 4800 White Settlement Rd in Fort Worth, TX, and offers a spot for seniors needing retirement care, nursing care, assisted living, or memory care. The building has private and semi-private rooms, so folks can pick what fits them best, whether that's a studio, one-bedroom, two-bedroom, or shared layout, and they're all set up for comfort with things like private bathrooms, cable TV, kitchenettes, telephones, air conditioning, Wi-Fi, and some come furnished. There're wide walkways and wheelchair access, so getting around is safer and easier, and all the main doors and rooms have emergency alert systems. Fireside Lodge gives access to skilled nursing staff, caregivers, and aides for different living needs, helping with things like meals, bathing, medicine, moving from a bed to a chair, or checking diabetes levels if needed, and around-the-clock staff watch out for emergencies. The community sets its pricing by care level, charges separate fees for community activities and respite stays, and accepts private pay, Social Security, VA benefits, Medicaid, Medicare, private insurance, plus some other financial options.
Residents don't have to worry about cooking because the center provides meals every day, including options for special diets like diabetes or food allergies, all served in a dining room with restaurant-style service and all-day dining. Housekeeping, laundry, maintenance, and move-in help are included, and folks can take part in planned activities like games, fitness, outings, happy hours, music, movie nights, and gardening in both indoor and outdoor spaces with walking paths, gardens, activity rooms, a game room, a fitness area, and even a library. Fireside Lodge is pet-friendly under certain guidelines, and it helps seniors with transportation for errands or appointments. The staff helps with activities of daily living, like eating, cleaning, and dressing, but the center doesn't offer full medical treatment like hospitals or higher-level nursing homes, although nurses are present many hours of the day and there's a doctor on call.
Fireside Lodge's location puts it near grocery stores, pharmacies, restaurants, and other conveniences, so residents and their families can get what they need without much trouble. The retirement center keeps to all health and safety rules and inspections and maintains required caregiver-to-senior ratios. Residents can enjoy both privacy and a sense of community, with programs and clubs that make it easier to stay active and meet new people. The mix of amenities and care options means seniors can get what fits them best as their needs change over time, and the setting remains comfortable and supportive for older adults seeking independence with a helping hand nearby.
