Overview of The Village at Incarnate Word

The Village at Incarnate Word offers nursing home, assisted living, home care, independent living, memory care, nursing care, and skilled nursing in San Antonio, Texas. Independent living provides private living with community services and no daily care, while assisted living offers help with daily tasks such as dressing, bathing, and medication while a resident keeps an apartment.

Memory care provides a secured setting with supervision for someone at risk of wandering. Nursing home, nursing care, and skilled nursing provide licensed nursing care on site around the clock, while home care brings support to a person’s residence. Several care levels can suit a resident whose needs grow over time, allowing a move between levels without leaving the community or starting over socially.

Respite care provides a short stay for a family whose usual caregiver needs to travel or recover. The community opened in 1988 and is operated by Incarnate Word Retirement Community. It has 60 beds, with total nurse staffing of 4 hours and 19 minutes per resident per day, representing the daily hands on nursing time assigned to each resident.

Medicaid, Medicare, and private pay are accepted. Medicare applies to short term skilled care after a hospital stay rather than long term residence. A Walk Score of 75 out of 100 places the area in the very walkable band, meaning most errands can be completed on foot; a resident who no longer drives can still reach nearby shops, pharmacies, or cafes independently.

The community has a salon or spa and rehabilitation services, giving residents access to grooming and rehabilitation without arranging those services elsewhere. Religious services and a Spiritual Life program are also available for residents who want to participate.
