Mercy House New Braunfels Reviews
Taree Schrubb
My husband Vic was at Mercy House for 7 weeks before his passing on December 29, 2024. I was very pleased with the care he received there. The CNA's were very kind to Vic and tried to help him with my suggestions to get him to eat. I feel this was a good environment for him as I could not take care of him at home when he was discharged from the hospital after a week's stay for a UTI and impaction. He was a wanderer and he was in a safe environment. With the help of Hospice I feel Vic received the care he needed in his last days of his journey with dementia.
