Overview of Longhorn Village

Longhorn Village is a nursing home in Austin, Texas, located on Longhorn Parkway on the city’s western edge. The community has been in operation for 21 years and is owned by Stacy Hibma. It is a 60-bed community currently running at about 51 percent occupancy, which means there tends to be more room available here than at communities running closer to full capacity.

Care includes rehabilitation services, respite care, and 24-hour staffing, with a nursing team that averages 5 hours and 35 minutes of direct nursing care per resident each day. That level of daily attention is worth noting for families weighing options for a loved one who needs steady, hands on support. Longhorn Village accepts Medicaid, Medicare, and private pay, which gives families several ways to cover the cost of care.

State inspection reviews of the community have centered on administrative and documentation matters rather than resident care or safety concerns, with no complaints substantiated. That pattern points to a facility whose day to day regulatory footing tends to run smoothly.

Outside of clinical care, residents have access to a fitness center, library, and outdoor spaces, along with salon and spa services. Building-wide wifi, emergency call systems, and a secured perimeter round out the safety and comfort features. A Lifelong Learning program gives residents a structured way to stay engaged. The location is car-dependent, with a Walk Score of 20, so getting around the neighborhood will typically mean driving rather than walking.

Overview of Querencia at Barton Creek

Querencia at Barton Creek is a continuing care retirement community in southwest Austin, on Barton Creek Boulevard, about seven miles from downtown. It brings independent living, assisted living, memory care, and skilled nursing together on one campus, so residents and families can move between levels of care without changing communities. The community was named by Newsweek one of America’s Best Continuing Care Retirement Communities in 2025. It is operated by Barton Creek Senior Living Center, Inc.

The skilled nursing side of the campus has 42 beds and typically runs close to full, with an occupancy rate of 94 percent. The average stay is about 105 days, which points to a strong mix of residents recovering from a hospital stay or surgery alongside those settled in for longer-term nursing care. Rehabilitation and therapy services support that recovery-focused population. Nursing coverage is substantial, with total nursing care averaging 4 hours and 49 minutes per resident each day.

Querencia accepts Medicare and private pay, giving families two clear ways to cover a stay, whether a short rehabilitation stint or an extended one. State health inspectors have generally centered their findings on facility-standards and life-safety topics such as building and fire-safety compliance, with issues noted and corrected rather than concerns tied to immediate resident harm.

Day to day, residents have access to dining, health and wellness programming, and clubs and social groups built around shared hobbies and interests. An active Resident Council gives residents a regular voice in community policies and quality of life. Pets are welcome, which can matter for residents moving from a longtime home. The location is car-dependent, with a Walk Score of 8, so families and staff visiting the campus should plan to drive rather than walk to nearby errands.
