Having to put your Mom or Dad in a place to be cared for is always a difficult situation. We have been in a few facilities before Aventine at The Etta and I have to say this place is far above our past experiences. The facility is clean and does not "stink". It is open and airy and sits in the middle of a grove of trees. The staff here is truly wonderful. They really care about my mom. If your family has to choose this option for your parent, Aventine at The Etta is a good choice.... Read more

I appreciate all the activities offered, exercise programs, the comfortable accommodations,how clean the facility and my loved ones room is! The total first impression of the entire home outside and in was pretty as well as warm and welcoming! With my Mom still being able to still do a lot of things, as mentioned before, the number of activities offered, so that she can stay busy along with having time to make new friends and not just confine herself to her room. The residents there are also so kind and cute! Felt Mom could really enjoy living there overall.

My parents are receiving excellent care in the memory care unit. Memory Care unit only has 17 residents so ratio of caregiver to resident is amazing. We were very lucky when we needed to move them into memory care an apartment was available. Every staff member has been very friendly and helpful. My mother was coming off of a fall followed by hospitalization and rehab... we were advised after her falling at Independence Hill Assisted Living that we needed to relocate both into memory care. We inquired at the Etta on [date removed] and had approval with move in for them by [date removed]. We have been blessed by this.

Our family had an in person tour and we really liked the community as well as the tour experience, however their outdoor area was just smaller then what we were looking for.
When I toured The Etta at Shavano Park there were several activities in progress. All of the residents were engaged in the activities. They were putting together a women's choir at the time, with 5 or 6 residents. The residents are very involved in the activities. The Etta at Shavano always had two residents as greeters at the front door, so when I walk in I am greeted every time with smiles.
Read MoreWe had a wonderful experience at The Etta at Shavano Park. The staff is great the food is great, it was all around a positive experience. My loved one really enjoyed his time here, but he decided that he wanted to move home with me so that is what we are going to do. I would highly recommend the facility to others.
Mom adjusted fairly quickly and has made some friends quickly. The staff is great at pairing up the residents for success in this area. The staff is courteous and very responsive to our requests for Mom's care.

The staff here actually care about the residents, you can tell that it is not just a job for them. They pay very close attention to her habits and wants and needs. They have been great with communication and call me with any sort of updates. They have a lot of activities offered for the residents, they keep them very busy with things like games, movie nights, yoga classes, etc. I am so blessed to have found this facility for her. She absolutely loves the food as well. I recommend The Etta all the time for people looking for care for their loved ones.

The Etta at Shavano Park is a very clean community and we have been so impressed by the staff - they give just such compassionate care to the residents. We have no problem recommending this community to families based on our experience. The activities are awesome they really keep all the residents so engaged. For the price and with everything that is being delivered and offered within their constraints especially with care these days it is great.

Our aunt is very happy there, the facility has been very accommodating with everything up until this point. We are very pleased with the services and the people there, the staff are really on top of things. They have done really well so far. Sometimes our loved one complains about the variety of the meals and how there is a lot of Mexican food being served

Our family had an in person tour and the facility itself was very nice and the lady who took us on the tour was very informative and helpful. However if we remember correctly the memory care unit was separate from the rest and we knew if our loved one had to move to that side we would want them to still be in a stimulating environment.
It felt like the sales said one thing and then we got there and it was different. The people that I know are going to be with my loved one and caring for my loved one is the ones I want to get close to. With the staff shortage right now I think there is a struggle with care. I did not feel like all things were up front. Also it was important for me to meet the director and the person that I would be working with everyday. It was a great tours and a lot of knowledge but everything was flashy and appeared to be more than what was actually offered.

March 1, 2022Thank you for your review. Our priority is to provide quality care and services. We invite you to reach out to the community Executive Director to discuss any personal concerns you may be experiencing and how we can resolve them. Thank you for being a valued family member.
I was able to have an in person and The Etta is not very interesting it did not really stand out to me. I looked at their sister community which was much more impressive.
They did a great job. I would highly recommend this community to others for their loved ones. The staff are great caregivers. They understand the family and the responsibilities to the residents. The family is very pleased with our experience.

Our family was able to have an in person tour, and they were some covid restrictions but they did allow the residents to mingle with each other. We saw some sitting at game tables, while wearing masks. It was a nice facility but the location was just a little farther then what we were wanting.
We chose The Etta because they were a pet friendly facility and allowed her to have a cat, the setting is beautiful surrounded by trees, and the staff that I worked with were just fantastic and very responsive. I took that as a good sign that they would be responsive once she was a resident here. They were very good on the covid 19 protocols but very flexible as well with visitation and give weekly updates and constant calls. I would highly recommend to others looking.
