Frequently Asked Questions

Pricing depends on the floor plan and the level of care your loved one needs, so we don't publish a one-size-fits-all number. Please call us at (903) 465-5051 for current rates — we'll walk you through exactly what's included and give you an accurate figure for your situation, with no surprises.

Assisted living is for people who are largely independent but want help with daily activities like medication management, bathing, dressing, and meals, in a home-like setting with their own private apartment. A nursing home (skilled nursing facility) provides a higher level of round-the-clock medical care for people with complex medical needs, often after a hospital stay. Many families find that assisted living offers the right balance of support, privacy, and community.

Assisted living supports people who need help with daily tasks but can generally get around and make decisions on their own. Memory care is designed specifically for people living with Alzheimer's disease or other dementia: it's a secure environment to prevent wandering, with staff certified in Alzheimer's and dementia care, structured daily routines, and design that reduces confusion. Live Oak Denison offers both on one campus.

Texas licenses assisted living facilities as Type A or Type B. In a Type A facility, residents must be able to evacuate on their own in an emergency and generally don't need staff attention during nighttime sleeping hours. A Type B facility can serve residents who may need staff help to evacuate, may need care during the night, or may not be able to follow directions in an emergency. Type B is often a better fit for people with more significant care needs, including many people living with dementia. Call us and we'll explain how this applies to your loved one.

Live Oak Denison does not accept Medicare or Medicaid. Medicare generally doesn't cover long-term assisted living or memory care. Some families use long-term care insurance, and veterans or surviving spouses may qualify for VA Aid & Attendance benefits, which may help cover the cost. Every situation is different, so please call us at (903) 465-5051 and we'll talk through your options.

Apartments are unfurnished, so residents can bring the furniture, art, photos, and keepsakes that make a place feel like home. Most people bring a bed, a comfortable chair, a dresser, a small table, bedding and towels, clothing for every season, toiletries, and current medications and medical information. For memory care, familiar items like a favorite blanket, family photos, and a well-loved chair can make the transition easier. Our team is happy to help with measurements and layout, and to answer any questions before move-in day.
