Cornerstone Retirement Community offers nursing home care, assisted living, home care, independent living, memory care, respite care, and skilled nursing in Texarkana, TX. Independent living means private living with community services and no daily care, while assisted living adds help with dressing, bathing, medication, and other daily tasks. Memory care provides a secured setting with supervision for someone at risk of wandering, and nursing home and skilled nursing care provide licensed nursing care on site around the clock.
Home care provides support where a resident lives, while respite care offers a short stay when a family’s usual caregiver needs to travel or recover. The range of care levels can suit a resident whose needs grow over time without leaving the community. Needs can change without requiring a move. Cornerstone opened in 1996 and has 66 beds.
Medicaid, Medicare, and private pay are accepted. Medicaid can help families whose savings may not cover a long stay, Medicare covers short term skilled care after a hospital stay rather than long term residence, and private pay allows families to fund care directly. Total nurse staffing is 4 hours and 18 minutes per resident each day, representing the daily nurse staffing time allocated per resident.
Meals are prepared from scratch and shaped by resident feedback, giving residents menu options influenced by their preferences. A salon provides on site grooming, while rehabilitation services include short term rehab for recovery after an illness or procedure. Pets are allowed, religious services are available, Methodist Retirement Communities operates the community, and Chuck Lewis serves as director.
