Juniper Village at Spicewood Summit is a senior living community in the Northwest Hills area of Austin, Texas, that provides independent living, assisted living, Wellspring Memory Care, short-term rehabilitation, and long-term professional nursing. Operating with a Texas Type B license since February 2021, the community has been managed by Juniper Communities, a top-tier national provider.
The community has a 109-bed capacity, consisting of 94 assisted living residents and 46 Medicare-certified nursing beds. Currently, the nursing section maintains a population of roughly 24 residents, representing a 50% occupancy rate, which is lower than the typical Texas average. The financial structure relies on Medicare and private funds, as Medicaid is not accepted for nursing care. While the community currently faces an operating deficit, its payroll investment remains at 53.5% of revenue, which is consistent with the standards for a properly staffed medical environment.
From a regulatory standpoint, two different agencies monitor this community, with the Texas HHSC overseeing the assisted living and nursing licenses, while federal authorities manage the Medicare-certified wing. The community has recorded two technical findings regarding the sprinkler system and fire marshal checks, both of which were resolved. The total number of state citations is 67% lower than the Texas average, reflecting a favorable safety record. One administrative penalty was also recorded in early 2025.
Caregiver presence is the most significant attribute of this community. Total adjusted nursing time is 4 hours and 44 minutes per resident daily, ranking it 31st out of 237 Texas nursing locations and 25% above the state mean. The professional nursing oversight is particularly remarkable, with registered nurse hours more than double the Texas average on both weekdays and weekends. Physical therapy time also exceeds state norms by 75%. While assistant nursing hours are slightly below the state benchmark, the overall weekend staffing remains 33% higher than most communities in Texas, earning it a federal staffing sub-rating far above the state average.
Medical support within the nursing wing includes post-acute recovery through a partnership with Powerback Rehabilitation and long-term care for complex chronic conditions. Wound management, oxygen therapy, and specialized nutrition, with professional nurses on duty 24 hours a day, are also available. Through the Connect4Life program, a medical concierge coordinates primary care and pharmacy services on-site. In the assisted living section, the team aids with daily tasks and is prepared to support younger residents or those with moderate cognitive changes. The award-winning Wellspring Memory Care also utilizes therapeutic settings and specialized training, while the Catalyst program ensures social engagement across multiple wellness categories. Freshly prepared dining, a beauty salon, communal gardens, and a library are also provided.
Juniper Village at Spicewood Summit is an ideal option for families in Northwest Austin seeking a campus where a wide range of care, including independent living to high-level nursing, is provided without the need to relocate. The exceptional staffing levels with a registered nurse presence serve as a major advantage in the Austin market.
Juniper Village at Spicewood Summit is legally operated by S-H Opco Spicewood Springs LLC.
In Texas, the Health and Human Services Commission (HHSC) is the primary regulatory body that conducts unannounced inspections and publishes quality reports for all long-term care homes.
