Windmill Village Rehabilitation and Care Center sits in Lubbock, TX and offers care for up to 120 residents, with 90 Medicare beds, divided into four wings named Texas Tech Drive, Mac Davis Lane, Buddy Holly Avenue, and Martin Luther King Jr. Blvd, which gives a bit of local history and character to the place. The center keeps a person-directed approach, aiming for care that honors kindness, dignity, and support, and you'll find staff who try to help people make daily choices about when they'd like to shower or what meals they'd like-meals come five times a day, including brunch and chow, served either in the sunny dining room or in residents' rooms. The dining room aims for a relaxed, restaurant-style setting with choices for special diets like diabetes, and there's always a pantry open 24 hours for snacks and drinks, plus an ice cream machine that most people enjoy. The rooms are both private and semi-private with Wi-Fi, air conditioning, cable TV, phone, kitchenette, and private bathrooms, and the building itself has a sprinkler system and other safety features.
There's a lot going on activity-wise, since Windmill Village offers regular movie nights, music programs, fitness classes, arts and crafts, a library, a game room, and outdoor patios and gardening areas, with communal lounges set up with sofas and armchairs to make things feel homier. Showers are set up spa-style, so they don't look or feel like a hospital, and there's a beauty and barber shop on site. The large rehabilitation gym sits ready for residents needing physical, occupational, or speech therapy, all part of a broader goal to help people recover and keep as much independence as possible, and the therapy team sets up custom care plans for short-term rehab, outpatient therapy, or longer stays. For care, nurses are there from 12 to 16 hours a day, and the call system runs 24/7. Personal care assistants help with bathing, dressing, moving, and daily routines, and there's medical support like wound care, medication help, and podiatry visits too.
Families and residents can join councils to help improve care, and there are systems for transportation, parking, laundry, housekeeping, and move-in help to ease the transitions. Amenities include always-on Wi-Fi, Senior Care TV with 60 channels plus an in-house channel posting daily menus and facility news, guest parking, and outdoor walking paths. Windmill Village takes Medicare, Medicaid, and long-term care insurance, with monthly rates running between $4,800 and $8,200, and they keep options for respite care, hospice, palliative care, and even Women Only Dementia Care. There are about 23 certified beds available as of June 2025. The facility runs 24 hours a day, every day, and is part of a larger network of health centers with a focus on rehabilitation and long-term care-anybody can look them up at windmillvillagerehab.com for more details.
