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 Nursing Homes in Texas

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 nursing home care?

Yes — Texas Medicaid covers nursing home care for residents who meet income, asset, and medical-need eligibility requirements. Most CMS-certified nursing homes accept Medicaid as a primary payer once long-term-care eligibility is established.

What is nursing home care?

Nursing homes (also called skilled nursing facilities) provide 24/7 medical care from licensed nurses, rehabilitation services, and long-term custodial care for residents with significant health or functional needs.

How many nursing homes are listed on this page?

This page features 262 nursing homes in Texas. Use the filters and comparison tools above to compare ratings, amenities, and pricing.

How do I choose the right nursing home 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 nursing homes 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.
