Assisted Living Services in Fulshear, TX

Your beloved may need help with bathing, dressing or pills at hours no one can plan for. Often family members take on more of that help each month, until they can no longer keep up. SilverMaple Assisted Living is a small, faith-guided assisted living home at 32611 Mountain Maple Court in Fulshear, TX, where our caregivers are in the home 24 hours a day. Your beloved gets help through the day and still lives in a home, and when you visit, you can spend the time together instead of giving care.

Our founders know this decision from the inside. Co-founder Lea Rodriguez, PT, DPT, spent more than 30 years in rehab, hospitals and senior living. In that work, she helped many families decide where a parent should get care. Co-founder Carmina Del Fonso came to this work because of her grandmother and her mother, and because of her years as a hospice volunteer.

SilverMaple is a residential assisted living home for no more than 12 residents. Each shift has at least two caregivers, so no caregiver looks after more than six residents at a time. In a home this size, our care team knows each resident’s routine, such as when they like to wake up, what they eat at breakfast, and which chair they choose in the living room. Knowing those routines helps our caregivers notice small changes early, like a slower walk to the table or a skipped favorite show.

    What does assisted living at SilverMaple include?

    Assisted living at SilverMaple includes help at any hour, help with medicines, and meals made in the home each day. It also includes housekeeping, laundry, rides, daily activities and a wearable called CarePredict.

    • 24/7 Support with Activities of Daily Living: Our caregivers help with bathing, dressing, grooming, and other daily routines, at the time of day your beloved needs the help.
    • Medication Management: Our care team helps residents take their medications correctly and on time.
    • Meals: Well-balanced meals are prepared daily and adjusted for each resident’s dietary needs and food preferences.
    • Housekeeping and Laundry: Regular housekeeping and laundry keep each resident’s room clean and comfortable, with their own things where they like them.
    • Transportation Services: We arrange transportation for medical appointments, errands, and social outings.
    • Daily Activities: Residents can choose from music, games, stretching and exercise, meditation, and walks in the home’s outdoor space.
    • CarePredict: Residents and caregivers wear CarePredict, an award-winning wearable technology. CarePredict tracks daily patterns, like sleep and activity. When it picks up early signs of a UTI, depression or risk for falls, it alerts our care team so a caregiver can check in. Families can see location history and how quickly our caregivers respond to calls for help.

    Care

    What does a day at SilverMaple look like?

    A day at SilverMaple follows your beloved’s own pace. Mornings can start with a walk outside and breakfast made in our kitchen. In the afternoon, there might be music, games, stretching or a quiet hour in the living room, and each week has salon days and Meditation Mondays. Our caregivers help with bathing, dressing and medications at the times your beloved needs that help.

    When is SilverMaple not the right fit?

    SilverMaple is not the right fit for everyone. A small home does not have what a large senior living campus in Fulshear, TX, might have, such as several dining rooms, a gym or a full events calendar. An older adult who wants a large social circle may be happier in a bigger community. An older adult who needs ongoing skilled nursing, such as daily wound care, usually needs a nursing home rather than assisted living. SilverMaple does not offer memory care. An older adult with dementia who needs locked doors to stay safe is better off in a memory care community.

    Who is assisted living at SilverMaple a good fit for?

    Assisted living at SilverMaple fits an older adult who needs daily help with things like bathing, dressing or medications and who prefers a quiet home to a large building. Many families looking at care homes in Fulshear, TX, ask whether a parent can keep their daily routine after the move. In a home with 12 or fewer residents, a parent can often keep much of it, from a favorite breakfast to a morning walk.

    SilverMaple is a faith-guided home. Our founders built it on their dependence on the Lord and their gratitude to Him, and we welcome residents of all backgrounds.

    What if your beloved doesn’t want to move?

    Many older adults push back on a move because they would be giving up real things: a garden, a neighbor, cooking in their own kitchen. Your beloved is welcome to visit our home with you, see the rooms and meet the residents before anything is decided. When a room is open, a short respite stay can let your beloved try daily life here first.

    How is assisted living at SilverMaple paid for?

    Assisted living at SilverMaple is private pay, and Medicare does not pay for assisted living. We don’t publish our prices because the monthly rate depends on how much help your beloved needs each day. Call (346) 381-8585 to ask about the current rate and what it includes. Our article on assisted living cost in Fulshear, TX, explains what makes a monthly rate higher or lower.

    What happens if your beloved’s needs change?

    When your beloved needs more help or a different kind of help, we update the care plan and talk with you about what changed and why.

    • After a hospital or rehab stay, transitional care at SilverMaple offers a place to recover with help each day from our caregivers.
    • If your beloved needs a short stay while you travel or rest, respite care at SilverMaple gives the same daily help for a set number of days or weeks.
    • If your beloved reaches end of life, hospice care at SilverMaple lets your beloved stay in the home, with hospice services provided by a licensed hospice provider.
