A new resource explains how senior assisted living apartments differ from nursing facilities, offering Houston families insight into private residences with professional support for older adults seeking independence.
-- A new resource for Houston families explains how senior assisted living apartments differ from traditional nursing facilities. The guide addresses common misconceptions while highlighting apartment-style communities that combine private residences with professional support.
Many families assume assisted living means hospital-like hallways and shared rooms. Senior assisted living apartments challenge that perception by offering private residences—real apartments with locking doors—where older adults maintain independence while accessing support when needed. Residents keep their own routines, their own spaces, and their own lives, with a safety net built in.
The guide examines The Medallion community in Houston's Greater Meyerland Area. With 52 apartments total, the intentionally smaller footprint means staff develop genuine relationships with each resident—knowing their preferences, their routines, and their families. Staff greet residents by name and treat them like family.
What Apartment-Style Assisted Living Includes
Modern assisted living apartments for rent typically offer daily living support including assistance with bathing, dressing, grooming, and medication management. Communities provide chef-prepared meals, housekeeping and laundry services, and scheduled transportation for medical appointments and errands.
The Medallion provides three kosher meals daily with dietary accommodations available, a heated aqua therapy pool, library, media room, wellness center, beauty salon, and beautiful courtyards. Chaplaincy services and 24-hour staff availability offer peace of mind. Personalized care assessments determine each resident's level of support, with care packages tailored to individual needs. Pets are welcome for an additional fee.
Floor Plans for Different Living Situations
The resource details floor plan options available at The Medallion. Studios at 298 square feet suit individuals seeking compact, efficient spaces and are licensed for one person. Deluxe suites at 374 square feet offer open floor plan one-bedrooms. One-bedroom apartments at 467 square feet provide separate sleeping and living areas—couples often do well in this layout. Two-bedroom options at 538 square feet accommodate couples or provide space for visiting family.
All apartments include kitchenettes with granite countertops, refrigerators, and microwaves, plus basic TV service and Wi-Fi.
A Community That Welcomes Everyone
The Medallion is part of Seven Acres Jewish Senior Care Services, serving Houston families for more than 80 years. Jewish holidays are observed and kosher meals are served, but The Medallion is also a non-sectarian, nonprofit community that welcomes residents of all faiths, ethnicities, and backgrounds.
