Looking for a home away from home?

Anderson Mill Assisted Living

This beautiful, spacious home is located in the quiet, but convenient northwest community of Anderson Mill, Austin, Texas.

Located only five minutes from the nearest hospital and medical care facility, the house is easily accessible from all directions. Although Anderson Mill is a certified type B assisted living facility, it more resembles a large family house.  The lack of signage is by design; residents admitted to Anderson Mill are part of our family, not merely monthly boarders.  We offer all the amenities of home, assuring a tranquil and comfortable environment.  

Anderson Mill specializes in the housing and care of ‘high maintenance’ residents. As the unavoidable consequences of natural aging and decline occur, you can rest assured that our highly competent staff will treat your loved one with the specialized care that allows for ‘aging in place’ with comfort and respect.

A maximum capacity of ten residents assures that there will always be an excellent ratio of staff to resident.  Because of our small size, the attendants can truly ‘attend’ to the resident’s special needs.  Daily blood pressure, pulse, and blood sugars help us track the current physical status of our residents.  

Staff meetings are held twice monthly at the facility; one meeting is a physician trained in-service, dealing with issues that affect our residents, such as signs of Alzheimer’s, Hospice care, and general safety issues that need constant review.

The second monthly meeting is more specifically directed to the care and status of our residents.  Having an open forum allows the caregivers to participate in discussing changes in our residents’ health status, the reason for changes in medication orders, including possible side effects.  Not only does this assure that the actual care giver is current with new doctor’s orders, it allows a sharing of information among the attendants, thus allowing the high quality of care to continue.

Anderson Mill has an ‘open door’ policy to all visitors and guests.  There is no lock down time or appointment necessary, as visiting is allowed at any time.  We also invite all doctor appointed home health care personnel, including nurses, physical therapists, and hospice employees to use the facility as this benefits our residents.

The difference between Type A and Type B facilities:

• A Type A facility cares for residents who do not require routine attendance during sleeping hours and are capable of following directions in an emergency.
• A Type B facility is for residents who require staff assistance to evacuate, are not capable of following directions in an emergency, and require nighttime attendance. As our residents age, they will not be discharged from our facility due to declines in their health status, allowing ‘aging in place’ with dignity.
