Not a good fit for memory care if needing assistance with activities of daily living
I would say if a loved one needs little assistance memory care...it's probably a pretty good facility. If they need care with ADL's it will not be a good fit. My Dad kind of got lost in the shuffle and needed more care than they could provide to him. Ended up with a very bad bedsore to lower back. I moved him to a facility that can provide this kind of care needed for him. So if loved one care can do their own thing and just need monitoring here and there. The Blake will work only if this type of patient care.

The Blake at Waco looks like it is going to be a really good fit. It looks like it will meet our needs care wise. They do have different levels of care so you are able to age in place. They also adhere to dietary restrictions and needs which is a huge plus. It is pricey but we are hoping for the best.

Our experience at The Blake at Waco has been absolutely fabulous. They have done a wonderful job with my mother. The thing that sticks out most to me is the staff , they are just so caring. The room sizes are wonderful, my mother is in memory care and she has a very large room and bathroom. The bathroom is in her room which is key. I would absolutely recommend them to others without a doubt.

Our Tour Experience
They were supposed to have opened this past summer, but they're still not open yet. We had been there several times to tour, and they were our end game plan. But we had to choose a different facility because they still have not opened. I liked them very much. The facility was brand new, and the people were great. It was a wonderful facility.

Tips for evaluating your community options

Safety is a primary concern when seniors and their families look for Assisted Living. To ensure that a community meets your needs and expectations, we recommend that seniors and family members:

  • Tour the location: Touring allows you to speak to current residents and staff, and helps you confirm the accuracy of the community description and photos. Use our touring checklist to help guide your visit.

  • Confirm the availability of required services: Before you commit, make sure that the community offers all the services your senior needs, and that those services can be provided within your budget.

  • Know the Texas regulations for Assisted Living: Each state has its own laws and inspections processes to ensure seniors reside in a safe environment. Depending on your state, you may even be able to look up inspection reports for the community(ies) you’re considering. Learn more about Texas regulations for Assisted Living.

A Place for Mom has scored The Blake at Waco 2 out of 10 using our proprietary review score.

 

We assign review scores to give a more reliable view into senior living communities and home care agencies. Our review scores prioritize reviews that are recent — the past 24 months — because we know families need current information when choosing senior care.

 

Those with many recent, positive reviews receive a high review score, while providers with few recent reviews — regardless of how positive — receive a lower review score. Communities with no recent reviews will not have a review score, even if older reviews are positive. The maximum A Place for Mom review score a community can receive is 10 points.
