Life at Our Cottage moves at an easy, comfortable pace — much like home. Mornings begin with the smell of breakfast cooking in the kitchen, caregivers chatting softly as they help Residents start the day. Each person has their own routine — some enjoy coffee and conversation early, while others wake slowly and ease into the morning.

Our homes are small and personal, so life never feels scheduled or institutional. The rhythm of the house follows the Residents, not the other way around.

Meals are freshly prepared each day and designed by a geriatric nutritionist to meet the needs of older adults.

· Breakfasts are home-cooked in the home each morning.

· Lunch and dinner are chef-prepared off-site and delivered fresh daily (Friday’s delivery includes the weekend).

· Snacks, fruits, and beverages are available anytime.

We collaborate with families to accommodate preferences, special diets, and favorite comfort foods — because meals are about more than nourishment; they’re moments of joy and connection.

Families may choose their own healthcare providers.

For those who prefer coordinated in-home medical support, Our Cottage proudly partners with Peak Medical Associates (PIC) — a trusted local group offering 24/7 support lines, telehealth access, and in-person visits as needed.

PIC works with most major insurance plans and includes specialists in cardiology, psychiatry, podiatry, wound care, and geriatric internal medicine.

Enrollment with PIC is completely optional — available for convenience, but never required. Families may continue using their preferred physicians or other providers at any time.

During the day, our average caregiver-to-resident ratio is 1 to 4, which is as close to one-on-one care as you can find in assisted living. At night, we maintain a 1:8 ratio (or 1:4 in higher-acuity homes).

Because of this small scale, our caregivers truly get to know each Resident — their habits, moods, and comfort needs — and relationships form naturally. It’s warm, attentive, and deeply personal care, never rushed.

Our caregivers are all background-checked, trained, CPR-certified, and supervised by our RN. They receive ongoing education in dementia care, emergency preparedness, and medication management.

Many of them stay with us for years and become part of the family — offering companionship, laughter, and stability to our Residents.

We believe engagement is essential to wellbeing. Our Cottage employs a Life Enrichment Coordinator who plans weekly programs that bring variety, creativity, and joy to each home— from art, music, and movement to themed socials, holiday events, and gentle sensory activities.

Throughout the week, our caregiving team continues many of these activities daily, keeping the homes lively and connected.

We also host chair yoga, memory games, and volunteer visits. Most importantly, we follow the natural rhythm of each Resident’s day — offering gentle encouragement, but never pressure. Life here is full of meaning, warmth, and choice.

Yes. Our Cottage homes are licensed by the State of Texas as Type B Assisted Living and also hold specialized Memory Care Certification through HHSC. This allows us to safely care for Residents with Alzheimer’s or other cognitive conditions who need structured, secure environments.
