Independent Living
What is Independent Living?
Glossary: Independent Living
Independent Living is for seniors who are able to live on their own in an apartment or house, but who want the convenience of living within a community that provides services and amenities such as housekeeping, social activities, dining, transportation, and/or the option of assistance with daily tasks or medical care if they need it later.

Five Star independent living services are designed to support and sustain active and engaged seniors. At Five Star, independent doesn’t mean alone: we offer a concierge model to make it easy for residents to access the services, activities, and resources they desire. Our trained staff and exciting programs keep seniors as busy as they choose to be.
Assisted Living
What is Assisted Living?
Glossary: Assisted Living
Assisted living residents are those who do not need 24-hour or complex medical supervision, but may need or want assistance with some aspects of daily life such as bathing and dressing, getting around, or medication reminders.
CLOSE
Five Star’s assisted living services support seniors who can no longer live on their own safely yet also do not require complex, round-the-clock medical care. With respect for their privacy and dignity, we offer seniors friendly assistance with the activities of daily living, such as personal care, transportation, and medication reminders.

Skilled Health Care
What is Skilled Health Care?
Glossary: Skilled Health Care
Skilled Heath Care is for those who need ongoing long-term nursing care or for those who need short-term concentrated rehabilitation while recovering from surgery or an illness. Five Star communities provide the sophisticated medical services and 24-hour supervision needed by residents with serious health challenges.
CLOSE
Typical nursing homes offer a lot of nursing but not much “home”. Five Star provides skilled nursing care on either a long-term or short-term basis, in an environment that contributes to the health and well-being of our seniors. All Five Star skilled nursing facilities offer 24-hour nursing care to address our residents’ many health care needs.
Respite Care / Short-term Stays
What are Respite Care / Short-term Stays?
Glossary: Respite Care / Short-term Stays
Respite Care / Short-term Stays are great for seniors when families travel out of town or simply need a break from the stresses of caregiving. They can also be a good option for those considering senior living and want to "try it out" before making a long-term commitment. Short-term stays allow residents to enjoy housekeeping services, community activities, dining, and all other amenities enjoyed by our permanent residents. In addition to the benefits of physical care, our short-term residents often make friendships that enrich life in a way that only connecting with others can.
CLOSE
For seniors needing temporary care or whose family have to travel or take time for themselves – or for those who want to “test drive” life at one of our senior living communities – Five Star offers short stays. Whether for a week or a few months, seniors enjoy exceptional care, community activities, dining, and housekeeping services – and family members enjoy peace of mind.
Rehabilitation & Wellness
What is Rehabilitation & Wellness?
Glossary: Rehabilitation & Wellness
Rehabilitation and Wellness services are designed to help you maintain and improve independence. We offer rehabilitation for:
- Short-term inpatient stays, often needed after surgical procedures
- Home health care in our assisted living communities

Five Star is working to change that with our Lifestyle360 program - a holistic approach to active community living that focuses on five dimensions of wellness: intellectual, social, physical, emotional, and spiritual.
Our high-rise senior living apartments offer spectacular views, a premium location overlooking Memorial Park in the fabulous Galleria area, and easy access to the world-renowned Texas Medical Center.
