Assisted Living & Memory Care · San Antonio, TX

Overview of The Waterford at Shavano Park

The Waterford at Shavano Park provides assisted living and memory care in San Antonio, Texas. Assisted living includes help with daily tasks such as dressing, bathing, and medication while a resident maintains a private apartment. Memory care offers a secured setting with supervision for someone at risk of wandering.

Having both care levels can suit a resident whose needs grow over time without requiring a move to another community. The community has 30 beds, placing it among smaller communities where staff and residents can get to know each other. Studio and one-bedroom apartments are available, giving a resident the choice of a single private space or a larger layout.

Respite care supports a short stay when someone’s usual caregiver is traveling or recovering. The starting price is $2,799 per month, giving families an initial monthly budget figure for residence. A fitness center supports exercise and wellness programs, while art classes, cooking classes, and gardening sessions provide scheduled activities.

Pets are allowed, so a resident may bring a pet when moving in. The Waterford at Shavano Park is operated by Pal Shavano Park Trs. A Walk Score of 31 places the area in a car-dependent setting, meaning most errands require a car or a ride; a resident who no longer drives would generally need transportation for routine shopping and appointments.
