Family

"When the day came when I knew I had to find a suitable place for my mother to live, I had no idea where the search would take me, but I kept coming back to the cozy feeling I felt while visiting Parsons House.  I brought my mother along with me on my second visit to Parsons and a selection of other facilities as well. I let her make her own decision and when she chose Parsons I smiled because I knew she had made the best decision.

My mother has been here 14 months and I'm even more convinced it was the best choice.  The staff is wonderful and they genuinely care and it shows every day.  I'm fortunate I get to come visit her several times a week and I feel just as welcome today as I did the first day so I know my mom is in good hands. She loves the staff and enjoys socializing as I knew that was an important component to her happiness. I appreciate all the activities Parsons House provides and though my mom is not an active participant most of the time, she enjoys watching. The competency of the staff cannot be understated. She loves the administrative staff and of course loves Rosie and loves hearing Craig laugh. Parsons House for me and my mother has been a blessing. Thank you for all you do."

The best Christmas gift I'm getting this year is the peace of mind knowing my 90 year-old aunt is at Parsons House Austin. She has found a lovely, safe place to live and make new friends.  Parsons House provides all the 'checklist items' families search for when looking for retirement communities.  But more than that, the staff couldn't be more professional, attentive, kind and friendly.  I feel like not only has my aunt made new friends but I have as well.  My aunt recently told me she wishes she had known about Parsons House four year ago when she was changing apartments.  I do too!

Employees

Parsons House of Austin is a joy to work at! In my 3+ years here, I have come to become a part of a "family". The residents are as much a part of my daily life as my true family members. There is a special and rewarding feeling that I get from getting to interact with these wonderful seniors. They have a wisdom about them and so much knowledge and information to share. Being here has truly enriched my life, and I hope our residents see me as a constant comfort in their lives. The staff here is also fantastic, with everyone's focus on the best for our residents.
