What can I say? A lot! Avalon Memory care is where you should place your loved one. The staff are professional and full of grace. We placed our mother there in less than a week. Very quick and expertly designed to help you make a transition in crisis. It is beautiful, warm, caring and interactive. The house heads of staff are personal and made us feel welcome and supportive of the decision to place our mother with them. I believe I heard my mother laugh for the first time in years after only 4 days at Avalon. She is being cared for in a way that understands Alzheimer’s and gives her the quality of life she deserves. I highly recommend Avalon Memory Care, it’s a gift to our family!... Read more
At AVALON, we set ourselves apart from other residences with the level of care and compassion we show to our residents. Our care is unique in that we treat our residents as people with individual needs rather than grouping them as 'those with dementia.' After all, a lack of cognitive ability doesn't equate to a lack of individual personality. It is important to remember that we are guests in their home.
Total monthly costs depend on room type, select services, and the level of care needed.
*Prices quoted are monthly rental charges and are provided by the communities themselves. Actual prices may differ due to one-time fees, timing and care services required. Speak with your Senior Living Advisor to learn more.

They take great care of the residents. So long as the resident is able they take them out to the living area to watch or sleep to the tv and to the dining room for meals. They spoon feed them if need be and talk to them. I also can't say enough good things about Hospice which was recommended to me when I first interviewed at Avalon.

October 21, 2024Thank you for your incredible review! We’re so glad to hear that Avalon has been such a positive experience for your mother and your family. It’s wonderful to know that our staff made you feel welcomed and supported during the transition. Hearing that your mom laughed for the first time in years is truly heartwarming, and it speaks volumes about the care she’s receiving. We appreciate your kind words and recommendation, and we’re honored to be part of your family’s journey. Thank you for choosing Avalon!
I cannot say enough about how accommodating this facility has been. I highly recommend placing your loved one at Avalon if you are finding that their needs are becoming more than what you can provide to them in your home. This facility feels a lot like home. I honestly wish we would have moved him here sooner but these decisions are so difficult. My Dad has been through the wringer over the last year. The amount of relief we have experienced since we moved my dad here has been immense. The entire staff genuinely cares about the residents and has gone above and beyond on every front. My dad has been cleaned, groomed and made to feel so special. I truly wish there were more facilities like this for elders.

April 9, 2024Jineen, what a lovely and thoughtful review. Avalon is so grateful that you have entrusted our team with the care of your dad. It is our mission to help families going through exactly what you're describing and we know the decision is difficult. Our hope is to ease the stress and provide a sense of peace for both our residents and their families. Our staff absolutely cares about everyone living with us and it's a privilege to support them each day. Thank you so much for sharing this and we will make sure to pass along your kind words to the Edinburg team!
My mom is a resident at Avalon Memory Care Edinburg and everything has been great so far. Great communication on process and move in. I would recommend the facility to others.

February 2, 2024Sharing you experience is so very helpful and appreciated! Thank you for recognizing Avalon and our manager of 3 years is fantastic. She is absolutely a communicator and is extremely involved in all areas, both in front of and behind the scenes. Thank you again for your kind words and we have shared them with the Edinburg team!
The staff truly loves each of the individual residents here at this facility. The housekeeping keeps the floors and other areas, including the bedrooms, spotless. I have never tasted any of the meals, but my mother said they were very good. I would highly recommend this facility to anyone looking for a place for their mother or father that has Dementia.

June 5, 2023Thank you for your kind review and we appreciate you taking the time to recognize our community!
I would recommend the community to others for their loved ones. The window next to the front door, has the owner's name on it and this was impressive to me. This is a smaller community with approximately 30 beds for residents. I feel that the staff was able to manage and get to know the residents more here. The staff communication was good with the family if we had questions or concerns.

June 5, 2023We are very grateful for your kind review and the opportunity to care for your loved one. Our founder saw a need for memory care in Texas and it led to him opening the first Avalon location back in 1995. We are family owned and have continued to grow and we strive to help families just like you while going through this sort of situation. That's great that you had an open line of communication with staff. They say communication is key and we agree! We send all the best to you and your family!
We have been very pleased with our experience with Avalon Memory Care. They go out of their way to care for her needs and we really appreciate that. I would absolutely recommend them to other families and already have.

June 5, 2023Thank you so much for recognizing Avalon and sharing your experience. We value the opportunity to care for your loved one and take it very seriously. Again, thank you so much and we send you all the very best!
We chose Avalon Memory Care because of the location of the facility and they were very quick to respond and get us in. The room sizes here are huge. The food is chef prepared meals and they are great. They do a pretty good job with the activities here with the different levels. I think administrative staff is right on. They are quick to respond, quick to call if anything happens, and the staff is right there with them. It is a very small community and I would recommend to other looking and already have.

June 5, 2023What a lovely review and we are so glad that you have entrusted us to care for your loved one. We agree that food is so important and that's great that the meals are enjoyable! The staff definitely does try to make sure the activities remain consistent and are fun for the residents. We are truly grateful for the team and responding to their needs quickly is top priority. Thank you so much for your kind review!
We are so happy with Avalon Memory Care. We chose them because of the convenient location and I went to visit and the owners sold me. Initially I was not able in because of covid and they were so helpful and hands on. They get them moving everyday in whatever way they can. They have been very careful of covid yet considerate of the family which I appreciate. I was able to visit during the midst of covid with an n95 mask and bi weekly covid testing. We are now able to visit in my moms room without our masks since we are fully vaccinated. The staff members have gone above and beyond and it was even better than what we were looking for and I do not ever worry about my mom or the care that she is receiving. I would highly recommend to others looking, especially if your loved one needs more memory care.

June 5, 2023Thank you for your kind review! Covid caused quite the wrinkle, so to speak, in our processes. We are so grateful to our staff who had to take extra precautions while caring for and keeping our residents safe. You not having to worry is absolutely our goal and that's great to hear that you feel so comfortable with the care. We very much appreciate you taking the time to share and send you all the best!
From what we can see Avalon Memory Care is kept pretty clean, and the staff members are wonderful. We definitely feel as if we are getting our moneys worth and from our understanding the care services they provided are great. Our loved one is being well taken care of. Based off the pictures they send us, the activities they have to offer seem great.
