Senior Placement Services

At Agewell Advisors, we assist seniors in locating the types of living arrangements below in Eastern & Central Texas, including the Austin, College Station, Houston, & San Antonio markets at no cost to seniors or their families. 

​

Assisted Living

An assisted living facility is a residential care option for seniors who need help with daily activities but do not require the round-the-clock medical care provided in nursing homes. These facilities offer a blend of independence and assistance, providing services like help with bathing, dressing, medication management, housekeeping, and meal preparation. Additionally, they often include social activities, fitness programs, and transportation services to create a supportive and community-oriented environment. Assisted living offers a balance between maintaining personal autonomy and receiving the help needed to live comfortably and safely.

 

Independent Living

Independent living for seniors refers to a lifestyle option that allows older adults to live on their own having access to support services and a community of peers. This living situation is beneficial as it promotes autonomy, encourages social interaction, and provides a safe environment tailored to the needs of seniors. Residents can enjoy various amenities and activities, fostering a sense of belonging and enhancing their quality of life. Overall, independent living offers a balanced approach to maintaining independence while ensuring assistance is available when needed.

 

Memory Care Facilities

A memory care facility is a specialized living environment designed to support seniors with memory-related conditions, such as Alzheimer's or dementia. These facilities provide a safe and secure atmosphere, along with tailored care and activities that promote cognitive function and social engagement. Seniors may choose to live in a memory care facility to receive professional, enjoy a structured routine, and connect with peers who understand their experiences, ultimately enhancing their quality of life.

 

24-Hour Nursing Facilities

A 24-hour nursing facility, also known as a skilled nursing facility or nursing home, provides around-the-clock medical care and supervision for seniors who have significant health needs. Staffed by licensed nurses and caregivers, these facilities offer comprehensive care, including assistance with activities of daily living (ADLs), medication management, rehabilitative therapies, and ongoing medical treatments. They often have doctors, therapists, and specialists on hand to address complex health issues. This environment is well-suited for seniors who need a higher level of medical support than can be provided in other types of senior living, ensuring their safety and well-being through continuous oversight and specialized care.

 

Residential Care Homes

A residential care home (also known as a "board and care home" or "adult family home") is a small, home-like setting where seniors receive personalized care in a more intimate environment. These homes typically accommodate a small number of residents, offering a higher staff-to-resident ratio than larger assisted living facilities. Caregivers provide assistance with activities of daily living (ADLs), such as bathing, dressing, meal preparation, and medication management, while fostering a family-style living experience. Some residential care homes may also offer specialized care for individuals with dementia or other health conditions. Residential care homes are often appealing for families who want their loved ones to experience a higher level of personal care and attention in a cozy, comfortable, and supportive atmosphere.

 

In-Home Care 

In-home care for seniors provides personalized support and assistance to individuals in the comfort of their own homes. Caregivers, often certified aides, visit seniors to help with daily tasks such as bathing, dressing, meal preparation, medication reminders, and light housekeeping. Depending on the senior's needs, in-home care can range from a few hours of assistance per day to 24-hour care. In some cases, caregivers may also provide companionship, transportation to appointments, or specialized care for conditions like dementia or mobility issues. This arrangement is ideal for those who value the familiarity and independence of home life while still receiving the necessary care to ensure their well-being and safety.
