Finding the right place for my mother as she faced the challenges of dementia was not easy. We…read morestarted with assisted living, then moved to memory care, but after ownership changes, the quality never felt the same. That's when I discovered Tran's Senior Oasis--and everything changed. From the moment we arrived, I knew TSO was different. Dr. Tran and her staff aren't just caregivers; they are family. They treat every resident with love, respect, and dignity. Many of the staff have been with TSO for over 10 years, which says everything about the culture of consistency and compassion. Dr. Tran is a very involved owner--she doesn't just manage from a distance, she knows every resident, every family, and is always attentive to their needs. That level of dedication gave me something priceless: peace of mind. As my mother's journey came to its final stages, the partnership with Altus Hospice made all the difference. Dr. Tran and the hospice team worked seamlessly together, surrounding my mother--and our entire family--with kindness, compassion, and comfort. They supported us through each step, ensuring my mother's last days were filled with dignity and peace. My mother spent her later years at TSO surrounded by kindness, stability, and genuine care. For any family searching for a place where their loved one will not only be cared for, but truly cherished, I cannot recommend Tran's Senior Oasis enough.

We were extremely fortunate to find this facility to care for our mother, whose decline in balance…read moreand memory required her to be in assisted living. After a very extensive search of the available facilities in the Leander and North Austin area, with visits to many of them, it was clear to us that Riva Ridge was by far the best choice. Given its small size, at the time of our interest there were no available rooms, so we asked to be put on the waiting list. The wait was well worth it. After moving there, our mother in a short period of time became accustomed to her new surroundings and the homey environment of the place, which is in stark contrast to the crowded-hospital feel of many facilities. Ken Missler is a hands-on owner of the place, and he and his staff are caring and compassionate while maintaining their professionalism in the day-to-day care. The range of residents' issues and capabilities is wide, and the staff engage the residents in games and art, etc., to the extent of the residents' capabilities. Visitation is essentially unlimited, though it was limited for a time during the pandemic in accordance with statewide COVID restrictions. The availability of both assisted living and memory care, performed in adjacent buildings, along with the availability of hospice care, are useful combined features of the facility that are not commonly found elsewhere. My very favorably view of Riva Ridge has been corroborated by others. My wife, as part of her church's visitation outreach to home-bound seniors, has visited many assisted living places in Leander and Austin. None has come close to the homey and comfortable environment of Riva Ridge. Once, when I was visiting my mother at Riva Ridge, I met a former nurse who was looking for a facility for her disabled husband, after removing him from another assisted living place that was not adequately caring for him. Having experience in these matters, given her occupation, and having looked at several possibilities, she told me she was very impressed with Riva Ridge and wanted to place her husband there as soon as possible. Our mother was at Riva Ridge for two and a half years as her health declined, the last six months in hospice care before she passed away peacefully in her sleep. She was taken care of, looked after, engaged with friendly and caring people. I thank Ken and his staff for taking such good care of her, and I unreservedly recommend Riva Ridge to others who need to find a place for their loved ones that require compassionate, professional care.

My brother had knee replacement. He needed to rehab before being able to walk stairs to his home…read more This facility is falling apart. His room, original bed was broken, ceiling was caving, peeled paint on walls, AC duct had blue painters tape all across it. His prescription of pain meds was supposed to be administered every 4 hrs with food. They did not feed him & did not know he hadn't been fed - and he had to call for meds every time. We were told they didn't have the capability of scheduled meds. What? NO supervision was given for him getting out of bed. NO shower in room. NO Physical therapy. Equipment ( Blood pressure & Pulse) did not work, he had to take it for them on his watch. The "staff" other than front desk and head nurse spoke very little English. We got him out of there as soon as possible. NOT a safe place.

He was also recovering from a broken hip and was using a walker. Aria had the safest facilities for my father to move around. The common areas have wood floors and less clutter than other communities. I felt my father was safe. My father enjoyed being able to enjoy the out side on his own with access to their courtyard. Not all communities are set up where your loved ones can enjoy outdoors when they want to. The Facility Manager was very helpful in helping set up my fathers room as well as hanging pictures. Since my father was an engineer, the Facilities Manager took the time to have many great conversations with my father. It is great that Aria is dedicated to Memory Care. They know how to take care of all levels. The separation of cognitive and non cognitive guests is priceless. My father was able to have conversations with other guests with similar challenges. Having a loved one in a home is all ways difficult but when you arrive at Aria you really do not feel you are in a nursing home. It helped me when I was visiting my father. Last but not least the Executive Director Ceri Mackenzie is there for you and your loved ones 24 hours. I have seen this first hand. She was there for helping me manage my fathers needs. Her experience and knowledge comes in handy as anything can happen any time when you are taking care of our elders. The team reacts positively to Ceri's experience and enthusiasm. To sum it up, Aria is a gem in senior community. It offers clean, safe, easy to navigate common area floor plan, spacious individual units and a lovely courtyard to enhance for my father's daily experience. Mostly importantly, the team members are friendly, caring and do not hesitate to come to aide whenever the unexpected need rises. My father actually thrived and showed improvement in matter of weeks under their care. . I have had other family members in Brookdale, Sunrise and, and Emeritus. Aria Memory Care is superior above all other communities. I would recommend Aria to any of my close friends and family.

Our Mom was my Dad's primary caregiver prior to her unexpected death so this transition has been very difficult. I chose Aria because the staff were all very caring friendly, the facility is very clean and modern, and the apartment/room was a nice size and well laid out to match, as closely as possible, my Dad's bedroom at home. My Dad has only been there 2 months but I still feel very confident I have made the right decision with Aria. Ceri Mackenzie is the medical director and she is very patient with the family and also with our Dad. She is knowledgeable and shares that knowledge to make us more comfortable with the transition. The nursing staff and aides have all been very friendly to Dad - especially Kristin, Melissa, Brandon and Jeannette - but they have all been wonderful.

Not only does it feel like a home with home cooked mealthe curated furnishings and art, but the people that work there are what make it so special. This team has some amazing people on it! The caregivers at Tiffin House Assisted Living and Memory Care do great work that is a work of the heart. They nurture and care for our families, not only taking care of the required daily things, but the show them with love & care in the ways that the residents need and want it. Mom enjoyed her time at Tiffin House and so did I. I spent many an evening and night with her and days when I could so that I could keep mom company & help her heal. I was lucky to be able to bring mom from the hospital straight to Tiffin for skilled nursing rehab (they came and did it in-house) after mom had a broken leg. Each time you move someone with dementia it can cause decline so I was happy she could move once and love her days at Tiffin. I can't say enough great things about the women who cared for my mom. They know who they are and I love them so much for caring for her in this last part of her life. The care was so good and Mom was so determined that she even "graduated" off of hospice care and was walking again & doing so much better recovering from being a pedestrian hit by a car on Stan Schlueter Rd in Killeen (55 mph 5 lane). You never think an accident like that could happen when you're paying Visiting Angels of Killeen to provide a caregiver to watch your mom, but it did happen. My hope is Visiting Angels trains their staff like Tiffin House trains theirs. Justin Trodahl, President of Tiffin House, has training for employees but also training for families who have a loved one with Dementia/Alzheimer's. The training makes a big difference, especially when living with folks who have dementia/Alzheimer's. My heart is full of love for these gals who do the hard work of everyday life, and feel the sad loss when their residents pass away. Tears were shed by many, and we had some good cries together when my mom passed away. They say once you are at Tiffin you are a part of the family and it is true.

It was clear to us from our very first visit that Tiffin House was the right place for mom. The…read moreinteraction between Justin, the owner, the staff and our family was so lighthearted and fun, but the evidence of how much everyone cared about the residents was there. There was never a dull moment anytime we visited. Also, more importantly, thank you to the wonderful staff for the love and kindness you all showed to our mom and us during her time at Tiffin House. We could not have asked for a better experience during these past 3 1/2 years. We love all of you, even the Aggies. Hook 'Em! Mike M.

My parents moved to the independent living side of The Delaney in 2018. My dad passed away in 2020,…read moreand my mom continued living independently there until recently, when she transitioned first to assisted living and then to memory care. Throughout each stage, the staff at The Delaney took excellent care of my mom. She was at the highest level of care in assisted living, and shortly after moving to memory care, she needed hospice care. The Delaney staff who cared for her along with the hospice staff during her final week were more than caring--they made sure her needs were met while treating her with compassion, dignity, and respect. I especially want to recognize Bobbie, the med tech, who gently stroked my mom's hair after administering her medication, and Charles, who took the utmost care when assisting Mom. Those thoughtful gestures meant so much to our family. We also recently held my mom's memorial service at The Delaney, and one of the staff members, Rob Sterk, provided a Christian service for our family. That was truly a step above and beyond, and it meant so much to us. We wanted a place where our parents could age in place, and that is exactly what The Delaney provided. It gave us peace of mind knowing they were in a safe environment with engaging activities and caring support. We are grateful for the care, kindness, and respect shown to our family.
