Optimum Personal Care - Sugar Land
5.0

5 on all of the above categories, it has been an excellent experience at Optimum Personal Care - Sugar Land. The facility is very clean and the staff is very Godly, which meant a lot to our family. I absolutely recommend this facility to anybody looking for assisted living.

Caydance Assisted Living and Memory Care in Katy, TX
4.0

My aunt was there for 14 months. During that time she was in both areas, assisted living & memory care. Overall the care & concern were very professional. Food very good & several choices. Personnel helpful & attentive to her needs & my inquiries. I can only compare Caydsnce to two other similar care facilities & I would place them second compared to [removed].

Brookdale Shadowlake in Houston, TX
4.6

Very welcoming staff and community. They have learned the names of my brothers and my children and they greet us by name whenever we show up. They treat my mother and us with kindness, dignity, and respect. The food has been wonderful - good variety and nice quality.We really liked the size of this facility and the way each building has its own sense of family within the staff and residents. Other places we looked were much larger and we felt Mom wouldn't get the personalized care and attention we wanted her to have. We also toured a smaller facility and felt that was too confined. Shadowlake was really the Goldilocks of assisted-living facilities for us!
