Nursing Home · Texas, TX
Sunland Retirement Center is a faith-based senior living community in Seminole, Texas, offering independent living and assisted living. This Type B licensed community is managed by Sunland Retirement Inc. in Gaines County, featuring 36 beds designed for older adults in West Texas who appreciate a Christian-oriented atmosphere. With a smaller scale, its environment focuses on intimacy and affordability over large-scale institutional services.
The daily experience within this community is centered on a quiet, routine-driven lifestyle. Three meals are provided every day, which can be enjoyed in the communal dining hall or delivered directly to their rooms for a more personal touch. While the amenities are straightforward, they cover essential needs, including laundry services, basic cable, free Wi-Fi, and consistent housekeeping. A 24-hour call button is provided, along with structured visiting hours to help preserve a peaceful and organized environment for all residents.
Regulatory oversight is managed by the Texas Health and Human Services Commission, which accumulated a total of seven state standard violations. In the most recent review from early 2025, the community demonstrated a strong commitment to clinical care, recording only a single health-related citation, which is lower than the state average. While six Life Safety citations were cited in an earlier inspection, related to fire drills and system maintenance, which were all addressed and resolved by mid-2024. The overall records show no enforcement actions, indicating that the community effectively balances its mission-driven culture with state safety requirements.
For those seeking a relatively affordable senior housing option, Sunland Retirement Center stands out for its significant value. Independent living begins at $1,800 per month, while assisted living starts at $2,150, rates that are notably lower than both state and national benchmarks. A $1,000 deposit is required for move-in. This setting is an ideal match for older adults who prioritize a close-knit, faith-based culture and a simple, rural Texas lifestyle over extensive on-site medical infrastructure or elaborate social programming.
