This is an older facility but packed with caring and knowledgeable staff. The care is great and I couldn't ask for a better option for my Mom.

The only facility I ever visited was The Waterford at Mesquite. That's the one I chose because I've seen it around for a long time, so that's where I went. I love it there. I have not found any staff that I don't like. I liked all of them. The people that deliver the food, the management, they're all very nice, they're all very aware of the COVID situation and make sure the residents are being careful. I have an efficiency apartment so it's small, but it's big enough for me and I like it. I like it that way. They serve food and it's good quality.

The Waterford at Mesquite is a nice community, but the cost is high. Our tour there was good, but they didn't have anything available right now. The staff who accommodated me was friendly, and gave me all the information that I asked. I saw a 1-bedroom apartment, although they also have a variety of accommodations. They talked about the activities that they have for their residents as well.

My mom is in Town East Rehabilitation and Healthcare Center and it's good. The rooms are small. The staff is very good. They have activities, but my mother just stays in bed.

I visited Cambridge Court and it's good. It's very quiet, the food is very good. My husband says all the time how good the food is. The staff is very pleasant, capable, and willing to wok with you. It costs an arm and a leg, but it's worth it.

Everything looked fine and fit the bill at The Waterford at Mesquite. It's all independent living, and the location was convenient for us. We had lunch there, and the food was OK. The dining hall was on another floor from the apartments, so we'd still have to take the elevator.

Cambridge Court looked good. It looked like a lively community. It's assisted living so you find people in wheelchairs, that's why it's a little bit depressing. However, it was a clean place and the rooms were good. The staff was very accommodating and very attentive to the residents too. I was there during lunch time so I can see that they're helping the residents. The food was acceptable too.

My mother-in-law is in Cambridge Court, and it's wonderful. The staff is great, and the service has been perfect so far. She exercises, has gone to a couple of group dinners, and goes on outings to fun places. Their food is amazing. They have a 5-star chef, and we eat there with her. The staff has been kind to her.

Overall, Cambridge Court was OK, but I thought their fees were high for what they were offering. The dining area and the place looked nice and clean. They had a place where they could have their hair done, which was nice, too.
Compared to the $4,000 national average and $3,795 state median, assisted living is fairly expensive in Mesquite at $4,350 per month. The average local cost is also notably higher than what seniors pay in several cities in this region of Texas, including Sherman ($3,694), Waco ($3,695), Tyler ($3,899) and Abilene ($3,868). Assisted living is much less expensive in Wichita Falls ($3,312) and Longview ($3,100).
Note: Cost data for senior care in Mesquite wasn’t available, so data for the metropolitan Dallas area was used instead.
Texas has some of the most consistent prices for senior care in the country, and this extends to options available in the Mesquite area. Adult day health services are the least expensive type of care available at $1,408, whereas semiprivate rooms in nursing homes average $5,064 per month. The average rate for assisted living is $4,350 per month, which is closer to the high end of the cost scale. In-home services provided by homemakers ($4,004) and home health aides ($4,040) seem to offer some savings compared to assisted living. However, these rates don’t include an allowance for food and accommodations. Seniors who choose to receive care at home must pay for their own groceries, utilities, upkeep, property taxes and insurance. These additional monthly expenses can make in-home care more costly than assisted living, which includes room and board.
Americans who can’t afford health insurance may be eligible for coverage through Medicaid. This national health care program provides coverage to over 65 million low-income families with children, pregnant women, the elderly and adults with disabilities.
Close to 4.5 million Texans are enrolled in the state program, including over 1 million blind and disabled individuals and the elderly. Enrollees receive health care services via managed care plans that provide a wide range of benefits, including:
VA Aid and Attendance Benefits and Housebound Allowance
Veterans and their spouses receiving a standard VA pension who are housebound or need daily assistance due to mental impairment, physical disability or chronic illness may qualify for a higher benefit amount through the Aid and Attendance Benefits or Housebound Allowance programs.
These two VA top-up programs aren’t available to those receiving a disability pension, and they’re only offered to veterans with a minimum 90-day active duty service record with at least one day during an active war and an honorable discharge.
Seniors can’t receive benefits from the two concurrently and must meet program-specific requirements to qualify:
STAR Transit provides ADA-compliant bus rides to any destination in the agency’s service area, which includes Mesquite and the surrounding communities. Anyone can ride for a nominal $1 fee, and there’s no fare charged for qualified seniors aged 60 and older, veterans and those with disabilities. Destinations include medical appointments, senior centers, shopping and personal errands. STAR Transit

The City of Mesquite’s Active Adults 50+ program provides services and activities that keep older residents engaged and enjoying a high quality of life. The city’s three community centers welcome seniors for nutritious hot lunches; a variety of sports and exercise classes; bingo, bridge and table games; special social events as well as support services and wellness screenings. Staff also organize fun outings for meals, movies, shopping, day trips to area attractions and senior dances with live entertainment. City of Mesquite Parks and Recreation
