The Hurst market specifically

Hurst's older housing stock, largely built out decades ago, has translated into steady in-home care demand from residents who would rather age in a familiar house than move.

Hurst residents comparing options should look at neighboring Bedford and Euless as well, given how closely the three Mid-Cities communities' senior housing markets overlap.

Questions families ask

What does HHSC license, and what law covers assisted living in Texas?

The Texas Health and Human Services Commission (HHSC) Long Term Care Regulatory division licenses assisted living facilities under Texas Health and Safety Code Chapter 247 and 26 Texas Administrative Code Part 1, Chapter 553. HHSC issues either a Type A or Type B license depending on residents' ability to evacuate in an emergency.

Is memory care a separate license in Texas, or something else?

Texas does not issue a separate 'memory care license.' Any facility that markets or holds itself out as providing dementia care must instead file an Alzheimer's/dementia Disclosure Statement with HHSC under 26 TAC Section 553.264, and make it available to families before admission.

How do I check a Fort Worth-area facility's inspection history myself?

HHSC's Long Term Care Regulatory division maintains survey and enforcement records for every licensed Texas assisted living facility. You can also call HHSC's Complaint and Incident Intake line at 1-800-458-9858, 24 hours a day, to ask about a specific facility's complaint or inspection history.

What's the difference between a Type A and Type B assisted living license in Fort Worth?

Type A facilities serve residents capable of following directions to evacuate on their own and who don't need routine overnight attendance. Type B facilities serve residents who need staff help to evacuate, can't follow emergency directions independently, or need nighttime staff attendance -- most memory care in the metro falls under Type B.
