My wife's mother is a current resident of Juliette Fowler Communities. We know them really well, and they have a really long waiting list. My mother was there, my sister was there, and a cousin was there. My mother-in-law is just tickled pink that she has found it, and that she was able to get in. She loves it there, she loves the people, she loves the services, and they have taken really good care of her. She is ninety-nine years old and still kicking butt. She has a one-bedroom, one-bath. The layout is for a single or a couple, and it is good. You don't really hear your neighbors unless they bang on the wall to get help, which doesn't happen too often. They have regular individual apartments, assisted apartments, and fully assisted apartments. They mainly serve lunches, but they have a service where for $5 they will deliver meals to your door. She's loving the meals down there, and she also loves the laundry room. They have a TV room on each floor, they have puzzles and activities, and they take them to stores and doctors appointments. They don't put salt and stuff on their food, and so it's kind of bland, but it's good and healthy stuff.

Whiterock Court was very nice and very clean. A lot of things seemed to be upgraded there. The staff was really great. If I were going to choose, I'd probably have chosen that one if I could afford it, because it just seemed like the nicest one. I saw three different apartments, and they were all very nice with granite countertops and things like that. They had an exercise room, a puzzle room, a really nice kitchen area, and a big dining hall. The facility was clean, well maintained and upgraded.

I visited Whiterock Court in early January and noticed that the residents were more mobile there and my grandfather is not. He is not as mobile or as coherent as the residents there, and he has dementia. Knowing his current state of mobility, they weren't willing to accommodate him. As far as meals go at Whiterock Court, they are delivering those due to COVID. But outside of COVID, they won't be delivering those. I asked them, "If my grandfather is unable to go get his stuff. Is there an option for the meals and get them delivered?" And they were not accommodating with that. So, we didn't want to put him somewhere where he needs to be more mobile than he is right now without accommodations. The rooms were nice. It's for an older generation, so it might be very old fashioned but they were nice, clean, well-kept, and they are in good condition overall. The staff members that I met were decently new, so I'm not sure if they didn't really know how to be properly accommodating. So I wouldn't say that they're the most accommodating if your parent or grandparents have special needs. They have a salon but we weren't that interested in looking at the amenities when I saw how not accommodating they were. We just kind of lost interest at that point.

My mother-in-law is moving into Whiterock Court. I didn't attend the virtual tour, but my wife did, and they were pleased with it. I've spoken to all of the staff members. It seemed clean, it seemed to be in a nice part of town, I thought the price made sense, and the staff was great. They told us generally what's going on with in the facility with COVID and they shared everything that we felt we needed to know. I'm satisfied with it. My mother-in-law is very excited. We have nothing but positive things to say.

It was fine. The lady who assisted me was good to me, and she was helpful. The apartment looked good, she said they had to clean it up, but it still looked good. The dining area looked nice; I would eat there. They had a gym.

The type of care tends to be the biggest factor influencing the average monthly cost of care in Dallas. The cost of nursing home care is more than $700 higher than the cost of assisted living per month, and when compared with home care costs, assisted living is about $300 more per month. Although home care costs appear less expensive than other types of care, it’s important to consider additional costs that are associated with continuing to live in the home, such as rent, utilities and general home maintenance. When all expenses are considered, assisted living costs considerably less than home care or nursing home care. Cost of Homemaker/Home Health Aide Comparison Chart

The Texas Medicaid managed care program is called STAR+PLUS. The program provides access to care for residents of Texas who are living with disabilities or who are aged 65 or older and require access to long-term care. STAR+PLUS covers a variety of services for its participants, including medical care, social support, case management and assisted living or home care.
The program accepts a limited number of applicants each year and is only open to seniors in one of the following categories:
In addition to being in one of the aforementioned categories, seniors must be 65 years of age or older, reside in Texas and require long-term care. Seniors must also have a monthly income that does not exceed $750 per month and can not possess assets valued at more than $2,000, with the exception of their home, which may not exceed a value of $500,000.
For more details about the eligibility requirements of this program and how to apply, seniors can contact 1-866-566-8989.
Community First Choice
Medicaid provides the Community First Choice program, which is exclusive to residents of Texas. CFC helps seniors who require long-term nursing care avoid further institutionalization. The program provides nurse visits and support services to those who reside in assisted living facilities or are receiving home care.
CFC is an entitlement program, which means that it has more flexible eligibility requirements than STAR+PLUS. Seniors who apply for this program must be 65 years of age or older, require long-term care and meet the financial eligibility requirements of the STAR+PLUS program. For more details regarding eligibility and how to apply, seniors can call 1-866-566-8989.
Optional State Supplement
In most cases, Medicaid programs only provide financial assistance with the cost of services in long-term care facilities. Seniors who require financial support to pay for the cost of room and board can apply for Texas’ optional state supplement. The supplement is intended to help low-income seniors afford costs not related to services while in long-term care such as assisted living facilities.
In order to receive OSS, seniors must already receive Supplemental Security Income payments and be residing in an approved facility. OSS benefits are calculated based on the senior’s budgetary needs and current SSI benefits. To apply, seniors can contact the Texas Department of Health and Human Services at 1-855-937-2372.
Community Care for the Aged and Disabled
Community Care for the Aged and Disabled is a Texas Department of Health and Human Services’ non-Medicaid program. CCAD offers several care options to seniors who are not eligible for or not receiving Medicaid but still require some financial assistance with the cost of care. Seniors participating in this program may be living in their own home and receiving home care services or in an assisted living facility.
To be eligible, seniors must be 65 years of age or older and require daily supportive care. They are also required to be financially eligible for this program, which means they may not have an income exceeding $2,250 per month and may not own assets valued at more than $5,000.
To apply, seniors can visit their local Aging and Disability Resource Center or call 1-855-937-2372.
Long-Term Care Insurance
Seniors and older adults who foresee the need for long-term care in their future may buy a long-term care insurance policy. Insured seniors who can claim the cost of assisted living through their insurance provider. In most cases, coverage comes with considerable deductibles, so it’s important to carefully consider the terms of the policy before purchasing.
The insurance company providing the policy determines eligibility. In most cases, current health status and health history play a role in determining eligibility and premiums.
Elderlife Bridge Loan
Seniors living in Dallas and other parts of Texas who are unable to receive Medicaid or OSS payments can apply for an elder bridge loan from Elderlife Financial Services. Bridge loans are paid directly to the senior’s care facility, and the senior and any applicable cosigners pay them back in monthly installments. Elderlife bridge loans offer low-interest rates and flexible terms.
Although eligibility is dependent on income and credit history, seniors are allowed up to six cosigners who are willing to help make payments on the loan, a feature that can drastically increase the likelihood of approval.
Area Agencies on Aging support seniors in their community by providing assistance with basic services and offering advocacy programs that include benefits assistance and long-term care ombudsman programs. Area Agency on Aging of Dallas
