They do a good sell job but they can’t deliver. Staff is unhappy, food is bad, it’s filthy. We moved our loved one in less than 2 months after placement. Beware.

My mother is staying at Mustang Creek Estates. It's worked out really well and they update me weekly. The food is good, her apartment is also good. They have different activities and they also play games. They do various things and physical activities. There's a little courtyard place for them to sit.

Parkview in Allen was very nice, and that's probably the one that I liked the best. It had the right amenities for the right price. It was 3-stories, it's independent, and it's considered aging in place. You don't have to move facilities even if it's just next door or something like that. They tend to stay in their apartments. The tour was fine for what we were looking for. They were screening at the doors for temperatures. We went the day before Christmas, and the tour was guided by the salesperson. They followed up well. I liked it. I'd say in the last five years or so, that one was the newest that we'd seen, and it was very nice. They're very accommodating and the salesperson was far enough to know everything that I would need to know, and any questions that I had she was able to answer. We were interested in anything 1-bedroom at that time, but we saw one of the 2-bedrooms. They were all modern, and there was nobody in there at all. While we were walking through, they had somebody there singing with a guitar and they were socially distanced on the ground floor. They also had an open area up another floor that had a balcony, so people were sitting outside their doors and listening. They told us they had not had any Covid cases at all, so they say they're keeping that up, but they can possibly change.

I moved into Parkview in Allen 2-1/2 weeks ago. I love the apartments. They have individual apartments, and they're almost like any standalone apartment complex, but better. They also have cleaning service once a week. I have no complaints, and I think any senior person would like this particular location. The staff is wonderful, I have no problems. One additional thing that they have is the handicap accessories, which are wonderful. The only complaint I would have is the food and I will be addressing that. We just got here, so I need to just talk in particular with the kitchen or whoever manages their food selection about my particular diet, because I have a special diet. With the Covid, they're pretty much delivering the food because the dining room has limited space. I haven't really participated in any of the activities as of yet because of everything that's going on with Covid, but they seem to have a wide variety of guest speakers. At one time when I first moved in, they actually had a guest speaker that was just talking to the residents. I didn't participate because I was in the process of moving in. Other than that, they seem to have a little active activities person with a lot of active things that you can participate in. It's just that I haven't participated in any of it. They had laundry rooms too.

My mother has been at Mustang Creek Estates for 4 years. When she first moved here she was too slim and eating poorly. She was wasting away a a rapid rate. I was afraid she wouldn’t live another month. Since being at Mustang Crrek Estates in Allen, she has gained weight, eats regularly and the kind quality care she receives on a daily basis has extended her life. I sooo appreciate the facility’s attention and efficiency administered with empathy and sincere understanding. I can’t imagine a better place for a loved one. Thank you Mustang Creek!!!

I visited the Parkview in Allen, it would have been the number one choice, but they did not have the level of hands on assistance, and theyre a little bit larger, so that would have been a drawback for my mom. The facility was beautiful, very well-cared for, and updated. The staff was very nice, and the food was very good, but it was only independent living and doesnt have staff for day to day assistance. The staff was excellent, and the people in the dining room that we met were very friendly and accommodating. The layout was very easy because it was a big square, but it was large, and the apartment we were looking for her was quite a distance, so it was a little bit daunting for her. I thought the pricing was fair and average for the size of rooms.

I'm living at Parkview in Allen, it's a good place, and I'm very satisfied. They have everything. They have card games, bingo, and all types of activities. The staff is wonderful, they're good people, and everything is fine. It's just like any place. Sundays are not as good, but most days, it's good. We have a pool, a bus takes you where you need to go, like to a doctor or the store, but I drive. Everything is inclusive, except the cable TV and telephone.

We hired Home Care Assistance for my wife. They make sure that she takes her proper medication and they walk through the neighborhood for exercise, which is good. They have lunch with her and make sure she's eating properly. They're there for two and a half hours a day and they do a good job. They're very professional and extremely caring about my wife which is one of the reasons why I went with this group. They make sure she has what she needs.

Financial Assistance for Assisted Living in Allen
Medicaid in Texas
Medicaid is the jointly funded state and federal program that provides low-income individuals with access to essential health services, such as hospitalization, X-rays and long-term care. Medicaid is a nationwide entitlement program, therefore, enrollment is guaranteed for everyone who meets the eligibility criteria.
In Texas, Medicaid is administered through Health and Human Services and most programs are delivered through managed care organizations. To qualify for long-term coverage that includes access to home and community based services, seniors must:
- Be aged 65 or older
- Be permanent residents of Texas
- Be a U.S. citizen, permanent resident or legal alien
- Need continuous long-term care for 30 days or more
- Earn under $2,313 per month in income from all sources
- Have less than $2,000 in cash, investments and nonresidential real estate ($3,000 when applying with a spouse)
Applicants are allowed to keep a home in which they and/or their spouse live, as long as that home is worth no more than $585,000.
Community Spouse Income and Asset Limits
Special income and asset rules apply when only one spouse in a married couple needs long-term Medicaid.
The non-applicant, called the community spouse, can receive up to $3,160.50 per month in income that’s transferred from the applicant spouse to ensure the community spouse has enough money to live on.
The community spouse is also entitled to up to 50% of the couple’s joint assets, worth up to $126,420 under the community spouse resource allowance.
Note: Texas is a Medicaid income cap state. This means that seniors with income that exceeds Medicaid eligibility limits cannot spend-down their excess income on medical expenses in order to qualify for Medicaid coverage.
STAR+PLUS Managed Care Program
Seniors aged 65 or older who have Medicaid coverage and need the type of care normally provided in a nursing facility may qualify for home and community based services through STAR+PLUS, a Texas Medicaid managed care program.
STAR+PLUS lets medically fragile seniors remain in a community setting, such as assisted living, by funding additional services and supports that would normally be provided in a nursing home.
Services available through STAR+PLUS include:
- Assisted living
- Cognitive therapy
- Dental care
- Emergency response service
- Home delivered meals
- Skilled and intermittent nursing services
- Medical supplies and adaptive aids
- Minor home modifications to improve safety and accessibility
- Personal care services to assist with bathing, dressing and eating
- In-home respite care
- Rehabilitation services, such as physiotherapy
- Transition assistance for seniors currently living in a nursing facility
- Financial management services
Allen is located within the STAR+PLUS Dallas Managed Care Service Area where the managed care organizations are Molina and Superior.
For more information on Texas Medicaid and the STAR+PLUS program, contact the local Texas Health and Human Services benefits office at (214) 750-4619.
Other Financial Assistance Programs for Assisted Living
Elderlife Financial Reverse Mortgage
Elderlife Financial is a licensed financial services provider that helps seniors access funds to pay for assisted living. Elderlife offers a reverse mortgage — a financial product that allows elderly homeowners to leverage the equity within their home.
To qualify for a reverse mortgage, the applicants must be aged 62 or older, and at least one homeowner must plan on remaining in the house. This can make a reverse mortgage a financial option for couples when only one spouse needs to move into assisted living.
In accordance with federal rules, all reverse mortgage applicants must complete HUD-endorsed financial counselling.
To learn more, call Elderlife Financial at (888) 228-4500.
VA Aid and Attendance and Housebound
VA Aid and Attendance Benefits and VA Housebound Allowance are two VA cash benefit programs for veterans and survivors who qualify for a regular VA pension and are either permanently disabled (doesn’t have to be service related) or have a chronic condition that restricts their ability to care for themselves.
For the Housebound Allowance, veterans and survivors must have a permanent disability that prevents them from leaving their home most of the time.
For the Aid and Attendance Benefit, veterans and survivors must have either a severe visual impairment, be bedridden most of the time, live in a nursing facility or need help from a caregiver to perform activities of daily living.
Note: Successful applicants can receive benefits from only one of these two programs.
For more information, contact the Veterans Service Officer at Collin County Veterans Services at (972) 881-3060.
