Overview of Ventana by Buckner

Ventana by Buckner is a high-rise nursing home, assisted living, independent living, memory care, and respite care community at 8301 N Central Expy in Dallas’s Park Cities neighborhood. Buckner Senior Living, Inc. operates it; Mariana Brinegar is the administrator.

The building is six years old, part of a Continuing Care Retirement Community, and requires a minimum age of 55. Medicare and private pay are accepted. Texas Health Presbyterian Hospital Dallas is 1.29 miles away.

Seventy-two beds, 49 currently occupied, puts occupancy at 67%. The average stay is 42 days. That figure, combined with the CCRC structure and five care levels under one address, tells you something specific: this is a community built for short-term rehab with a longer-term care framework in the background for residents who need it.

Nursing care totals 6 hours and 7 minutes per resident per day: 56 minutes from an RN, 1 hour and 27 minutes from an LPN or LVN, and 2 hours and 16 minutes from nurse aides. Transportation services, fitness and recreation, and pet accommodations round out the on-site offerings. A Residents Group and an Active Resident Council are both CMS-recognized and meet regularly on care quality and daily life.

State inspections by the Texas Health and Human Services Commission have focused on emergency preparedness, and care planning and documentation. The Walk Score is 77, genuinely very walkable for a Dallas address, and the Park Cities location puts a range of neighborhood amenities within reach.

A five-care-level CCRC in Park Cities with a hospital less than two miles away, high nursing hours per resident per day, and a 42-day average stay: Ventana by Buckner is configured primarily as a short-stay post-acute community with a larger continuum available for residents who age into it.

Overview of The Legacy Midtown Park

The Legacy Midtown Park is at 8240 Manderville Ln in Dallas’s Midtown corridor; a high-rise nursing facility, which is an unusual configuration that signals something about the kind of experience the building is designed to deliver. Five years into operation, it carries 98 beds across one- and two-bedroom floor plans, with 86 currently occupied. An 88% occupancy rate at a post-acute facility is a substantive number; it means this building is running close to capacity.

The 37-day average length of stay defines the model: short-stay, post-acute, recovery-focused. Nursing coverage totals 5 hours and 25 minutes per resident per day; 4 hours and 2 minutes from nurse aides, 1 hour and 15 minutes from LPN/LVN staff, and 51 minutes of RN time. Medicare and private pay are accepted; the absence of Medicaid is consistent with the private-pay orientation one would expect from a high-rise Midtown building with apartment-style floor plans. The Walk Score of 45 reflects a somewhat walkable area where some nearby services are reachable, but most trips require a car.

State inspections have touched on emergency preparedness, care planning, and documentation. For someone leaving a Dallas hospital who wants a short-stay rehabilitation setting that looks and operates more like a residential building than a traditional nursing facility, The Legacy Midtown Park’s profile of a high-rise layout, high occupancy, strong nursing hours, and a five-year operating track record makes it one of the more distinctive options in the Dallas market.

Frequently Asked Questions about Assisted Living in Texas

What's the difference between assisted living and memory care in Texas?

Assisted living in Texas supports residents with daily activities (bathing, dressing, medication management) while preserving independence. Memory care is a specialized form of assisted living for residents living with Alzheimer's or dementia, and adds 24/7 secured environments, dementia-trained staff, and structured routines designed to reduce confusion and wandering.

What's the difference between assisted living and a nursing home in Texas?

Assisted living in Texas is a residential model focused on housing, hospitality, and help with daily activities. Nursing homes (skilled nursing facilities) provide 24/7 medical care from licensed nurses for residents with significant health needs, and are regulated more strictly under both state and federal CMS rules.

Does Texas Medicaid cover assisted living?

Texas Medicaid does not directly pay room-and-board for assisted living, but most states (including Texas) offer Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) waivers that can offset the cost of care services delivered inside a licensed community. Eligibility, waitlists, and covered services vary — check directly with the state Medicaid agency.

What is assisted living?

Assisted living combines private or semi-private apartments with help on activities of daily living (meals, bathing, dressing, medication management) and a social calendar — for residents who need some support but do not need 24/7 medical care.

How many assisted living facilities are listed on this page?

This page features 918 assisted living facilities in Texas. Use the filters and comparison tools above to compare ratings, amenities, and pricing.

How do I choose the right assisted living facility in Texas?

Start by matching the level of care offered to the resident's current and anticipated needs, then compare licensing status, staff-to-resident ratios, recent inspection results, and pricing. Tour at least two or three communities in Texas, talk to current residents and families, and confirm what is included in the base rate versus billed as add-on services.

What should I look for when visiting assisted living facilities in Texas?

Pay attention to staff interactions with residents, cleanliness and odor, food quality at meal times, the activity calendar, and how questions about pricing and care plans are answered. Ask to see the most recent state inspection report, the move-out / level-of-care-change policy, and a sample monthly bill that lists every fee.
