Silverado Hermann Park Memory Care Community

My mom has been at the Silverado since last July. The staff and administration has been so supportive during this difficult time for our family. Knowing that my mom is at the Silverado has brought so much peace of mind, knowing that she’s gonna be taken care of, loved and treated like family. The staff loves her and she loves the staff. She’s doing karaoke, drumming classes, cooking classes that stimulate her mind . She’s getting good food, good rest and the communication has been great.Thank you Silverado.

The people caring for mom day to day are amazing. Everyone knows her by name and they know what she enjoys. They are so purposeful in their engagement of my mom…always encouraging, positive but never pushy. They provide therapeutic opportunities for her to have fun but even more, they create opportunities for her to contribute and serve a purpose, something that is really important. I simply cannot say enough good things about the experience. I am so incredibly grateful we found a place worthy of our precious mom for this season of her life. Thank you.

Parkinson’s is a horribly cruel disease. But I had no idea that a series of falls could trigger such rapid decline, both mentally and physically. In June, my ex-husband was driving himself from his assisted living center in Bellaire to weekly Parkinson’s boxing classes across town. By the end of August, he was relegated to a wheelchair and was in immediate need of 24-hour memory care after two hospitalizations and two unsuccessful stints in rehab. This new reality was overwhelming, and I am thankful for an informed referral to Silverado at Hermann Park. I knew this place was different when I walked in and was greeted by Astro, a rescue Labradoodle, one of three community dogs. It immediately felt like home – warm and welcoming and not a “final destination.” Nothing institutional about it. And with an onsite social worker, therapists and doctors, engaging community spaces, elegant dining rooms that overlook the courtyard, endless activities, events, celebrations and even fresh baked cookies in the lobby every afternoon, Silverado is the best kind of home you can give someone who needs constant quality care. Leaving a loved one in a memory care facility is gut wrenching and beyond heartbreaking. But when both the resident AND the family receive unwavering compassion and support, well this is the kind of place that you need to be a part of when dealing with the devastating challenges of memory care. I can’t stress enough what a supportive environment this is. The staff at Silverado are true earth angels. To a person, they seem to have a calling to do this difficult work. The nurses, CNAs, wellness and engagement staff are kind, caring and unbelievably patient while providing daily physical care and activities to keep their residents’ minds and bodies as active as possible. The food is good, healthy and nutritious. Rooms and common spaces are always clean. Residents are treated with dignity and respect. Transparency and open communications also make building relations
