The North Richland Hills market specifically

Because so many communities sit close together here, North Richland Hills is one of the easier cities in this metro to tour multiple options in a single afternoon.

What the contract does that the tour does not

The residency agreement decides what happens when things change: how care levels are reassessed and repriced, how much notice is required on either side, what the deposit covers and whether it is refundable.

Ask for a blank copy to take home before you are asked to sign anything.

You can check any facility's record free. Call HHSC's Complaint and Incident Intake line at 1-800-458-9858 for any Texas facility's complaint and inspection history. Assisted living is not CMS star-rated -- only nursing homes are. Read the full explanation →

Questions families ask

Is independent living licensed the same way as assisted living in Texas?

No. Independent living is generally unlicensed housing in Texas because no personal care is provided -- residents are fully able to manage their own daily activities. Assisted living requires an HHSC Type A or Type B license because personal care services are part of what's provided.

How is memory care different from standard assisted living in Fort Worth?

Texas requires any facility marketing memory care to file a specific Alzheimer's/dementia disclosure statement covering staffing, training and physical design -- standard assisted living carries no such requirement. Physically, memory care units typically add secured egress, and there's no published cost median for memory care the way there is for standard assisted living.

When does in-home care make more financial sense than assisted living in the Fort Worth area?

Using Texas's CareScout median home health aide rate of roughly $28/hour, in-home care tends to cost less than assisted living's $5,250 statewide median up to roughly 40 hours a week of care -- beyond that, a licensed community frequently becomes the less expensive option.

What's the real difference between a nursing home and assisted living in Texas?

Nursing homes are licensed under a separate Texas rule chapter from assisted living and provide 24-hour licensed nursing care for higher medical acuity. Nursing homes also carry federal CMS star ratings through Medicare's Care Compare tool; assisted living facilities are not rated by that system at all.
