The 105-bed community has a dedicated 25-unit memory care neighborhood for residents living with Alzheimer’s disease and other forms of dementia. This area operates under an Alzheimer’s certification, providing a structured memory care program rather than general assisted living services alone.

The Ridgelea welcomes pets. Residents can keep a companion animal during their stay. Transportation services, fitness programs, and recreation activities are also available here.

The Texas Health and Human Services Commission regularly inspects the community. Recent reviews have covered resident service plan documentation, food sourcing practices, staff health screening procedures, and building and life safety requirements. Inspection records show no enforcement actions against the community. Families touring The Ridgelea should ask how these areas are managed in everyday operations.
