This has truly been the most remarkable experience you could ever for from them helping with the move in and making the move as effortless as possible. To being available when we need them the most. They have gone above and beyond with my moms care. They make sure she feels right at home all the time. Even when the days for he, they make sure that she is in good hands and well taken care of. This place has truly been remarkable in everything and my mom could not be happier to be here. She enjoys the activities but especially happy with her new friends

My mother has been at BAL for a year and has never been happier. I have not met one staff member who isn’t caring and attentive. It’s a small facility, so every staff member knows every resident well and makes sure they are taken care of 24/7. My mother is severely hearing impaired, almost blind, and uses a walker. The staff go out of their way to make sure that she feels safe and reassured. Staff are wonderful about communicating with family members, so I always know what’s going on. I never worry about my mother, even when I am out of town. The place is clean and bright, modern but cozy. Meals are good, and there are several activities throughout the week to enhance socialization, creativity, physical fitness, learning, etc. The location in the hill country is beautiful and peaceful. It is one story with front and back porches. As a geriatric psychologist who has worked in several long-term care facilities, I truly consider this place a gem. My sisters and I are so grateful for BAL!

From the moment we toured this facility, we knew this is where Mom needed to be. Open and cheerful surroundings, friendly staff, super clean, and prompt help makes this the place to be for our mother. The administrator and social worker are on top of things. It's a great place!

My dad has loved living at the Bulverde Assisted Living. The staff and management have been top notch! Today we and Dad had an over-the-top experience. {name removed} cleaned my dad's room. There is no comparison in the quality of cleaning he provided. Prior it was certainly adequate. But to know the upmost sanitary, cleanliness has been achieved.
The people are really nice and helpful. I enjoy them and they seem to work together.
