Absolutely terrible food; more like prison food. Sometimes it was just a scoop of vegetables and bread rolls; one time it was just a bowl of beets and a cup of fruit for desert. Patient had a serious injury, but it was never documented or reported. My uncle was not bathed very ofen either. For the price, you should look around.

The Wellington at Arapaho is great, and they're being very helpful. My mother has lots and lots of health issues, but the staff has just been super. The dining area is very nice, and the food is OK. My mother's room is very nice and just what we needed so it's good. She's in their assisted living level.

Care Cost Comparison
Seniors in Richardson can expect to pay varying prices for senior care, depending on their needs and the type of care received. Those receiving full-time care in a skilled nursing home pay the most at an average cost of $5,064 per month. The price of assisted living facilities ($4,350), which provides an intermediate level of care and assistance with activities of daily living, is a few hundred dollars more per month than homemaker services ($4,004) and home health aides ($4,040).

Financial Assistance for Assisted Living in Richardson
Medicaid in Texas
In Texas, Medicaid is available to seniors aged 65 and older, people with disabilities and children and their caregivers. Medicaid provides free and low-cost health care services to individuals who qualify based on income and other criteria, based on the program that best suits their needs.
Depending on the specific program through which a senior is enrolled, Medicaid benefits may include:
- Doctor appointments and hospital stays
- Community-based services
- Dental, vision and hearing care
- Laboratory services
- Prescription drugs
- Nursing home care
Seniors may qualify for Medicaid through one of three programs if they also meet certain financial criteria. These programs are:
- The Medicaid Buy-In program, where individuals who are working, have a disability and don’t live in an institution can pay monthly to receive benefits
- Medicaid for people who receive Supplemental Security Income
- Medicaid for long-term care
SSI Medicaid
Seniors who meet the below financial limits and are at least 65 years old, blind or disabled are entitled to receive SSI Medicaid:
- Individuals earning no more than $771 in monthly income and with no more than $2,000 in assets; countable assets for Medicaid don’t include the senior’s home, primary vehicle and personal belongings such as furniture
- Married couples earning no more than $1,157 in monthly income and with no more than $3,000 in assets
Long-Term Care
To receive long-term care, seniors must be at least 65 years old or have a disability lasting at least 12 months and require at least 30 consecutive days of continuous care. For this program, seniors must pay a portion of their health care costs before receiving free services, and the following financial limits apply:
- Individuals can earn no more than $2,313 in monthly income and have no more than $2,000 in assets.
- Married couples can earn no more than $4,626 in monthly income and have no more than $3,000 in assets. For married couples where only one partner applies, the spouse not applying may keep up to $126,420 in assets.
While those who live in a nursing home and meet the financial limits are entitled to receive Medicaid services, seniors who wish to receive benefits in an assisted living facility must enroll in a waiver program.
STAR+PLUS Home and Community-Based Services Waiver
The STAR+PLUS HCBS waiver may be an option for Richardson seniors who would like to receive long-term care while living in an assisted living facility.
To qualify, a senior must:
- Require a nursing home level of care
- Be approved for Medicaid and meet the Medicaid SSI or long-term care program financial limits
- Not be enrolled in any other Medicaid waiver program
Services available through this waiver include:
- Assisted living
- Service coordination
- Respite care
- Personal assistance
- At-home nursing
- Home-delivered meals
- Occupational, physical and speech therapies
- Medical equipment
- Dental care
To apply for Medicaid services, seniors can complete the form online or call (877) 541-7905.
Richardson seniors interested in STAR+PLUS should call (877) 782-6440. Those approved for Medicaid and STAR+PLUS receive a packet in the mail detailing their medical plan choices. Seniors should select a plan and return the packet within 15 days of receipt.
Other Financial Assistance Programs for Assisted Living
Veteran’s Aid and Attendance
The Federal Aid and Attendance program provides qualified veterans and their surviving spouses with monthly payments in addition to their already received pension.
To qualify for A&A, an applicant must meet at least one of the following criteria:
- Need a caregiver’s assistance for activities of daily living, such as eating, bathing and dressing
- Be legally blind
- Be bedridden
- Receive care in a nursing home
To apply, Richardson seniors should send a written report detailing their level of mobility, disability and daily habits to:
Department of Veterans Affairs
Claims Intake Center
Attn: St. Paul Pension Center
PO BOX 5365
Janesville, WI 53547-5365
Seniors can also visit the Waco Regional Office to apply in person at 701 Clay Avenue, Waco, Texas.
Community Care for the Aged and Disabled
The Texas Health and Human Services Commission administers CCAD, which is a program that provides services to individuals who would prefer to live in the community rather than a nursing home. Benefits include:
- Assistance with housekeeping and personal care
- Home-delivered meals
- Emergency services
- Case management
To qualify for CCAD, individuals can earn no more than $2,313 per month and have assets totaling no more than $5,000. Married couples can earn no more than $4,626 per month and have no more than $6,000 in assets.
