Who operates The Monarch at Cedar Park, and how large is it?
The Monarch at Cedar Park is licensed to Sabra Southern Operations IV, LLC and managed by Cedar Park Nj Management LLC, with 70 licensed places in total, the 57th-largest of the 162 active assisted living licenses in the five-county Austin metro.
HHSC first licensed it on May 23, 2017, about 9 years ago. Ask what has been renovated and whether ownership or management has changed in that time, since the licensee and management company above are the current ones.
On Medical Parkway in Cedar Park, operated by AgeWell Senior Living under its Monarch Senior Living brand. Offers enhanced assisted living and Valeo memory care, with Amba passive-monitoring sensor technology in apartments.
The Monarch at Cedar Park is at 1503 Medical Parkway in Cedar Park, a short drive north of downtown Austin. It is operated by AgeWell Senior Living under the Monarch Senior Living brand, part of a small group that also runs sister communities in Henderson, Nevada and Richardson, Texas. The community describes itself as newly renovated and organizes its wellness philosophy, called Salus, around four components: physical, social, intellectual and spiritual wellbeing.
Two care levels are offered: Enhanced Assisted Living, described as a boutique-style level of support between traditional assisted living and skilled nursing with individualized, collaborative care plans, and Valeo Memory Care, a signature dementia programme built around each resident's personal history and strengths in apartments designed to encourage independence. A distinguishing technology feature is Amba, a discreet in-apartment sensor system that monitors sleep quality and activity around the clock without cameras, with specialist physicians reviewing the data for early detection of health changes.
The community sits near shopping, medical centers and cultural attractions in Cedar Park, and the operator provides scheduled transportation for outings and appointments. Tours are booked at (512) 738-8288.
What does The Monarch at Cedar Park's Type B license mean for a resident?
The Monarch at Cedar Park holds a Type B license, which allows residents who need staff help to evacuate, need attendance at night or need help transferring, as long as they are not permanently bedfast.
Type B is the license most Austin-area communities hold, and it is the only one that can carry an Alzheimer's certification.
All or nearly all of its 70 licensed places (70) are Alzheimer's-certified, so this is a dedicated memory care building rather than an assisted living community with a memory care wing.
What do Texas HHSC inspections show for The Monarch at Cedar Park?
The TULIP record lists 5 cited state violations for The Monarch at Cedar Park: 0 from health inspections and 5 from life safety code (fire and building) inspections, with the most recent inspection exiting on October 6, 2026. Each citation carries the date the facility corrected it.

These citations span 2019 to 2019. A citation is a finding that a rule was not met on the day of the visit, not a measure of overall quality, and every one listed here shows a correction date. What matters on a tour is whether the same kind of finding repeats, and what changed afterwards.

Penalties are public because they are meant to be read. The useful question for the community is not whether it has ever been fined, but what it changed: ask the executive director to walk you through the most recent one.
Where is The Monarch at Cedar Park in Cedar Park, and what else is licensed nearby?
The Monarch at Cedar Park is at 1503 Medical Parkway, Cedar Park, Texas 78613, in Williamson County. The nearest other licensed assisted living building is The Auberge at Cedar Park - A Memory Care Community, about 0.5 miles away.
Cedar Park and the 183A corridor hold newer-build inventory, which tends to mean better physical plant and higher rents than comparable care in older Austin buildings. It also draws families from Leander, north Austin and Lakeway, so availability moves faster here than the population alone would suggest.
| Licensed community | City | Type | Beds | Memory care | Miles |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| The Auberge at Cedar Park - A Memory Care Community | Cedar Park | Type B | 90 | Yes | 0.5 |
| Pointe at Cedar Park | Cedar Park | Type B | 60 | No | 1.3 |
| Shady Trails Senior Care | Cedar Park | Type B | 10 | No | 2.6 |
| Precious Group Home Care | Leander | Type A | 16 | No | 2.8 |

A smaller building tends to mean the same caregivers every day and a quicker read on a resident's changes; it can also mean less depth when staff are out. Ask who covers nights and weekends and what happens when a regular caregiver is off.
What does assisted living cost near Cedar Park?
The Monarch at Cedar Park does not publish its rates in the state record, and we do not estimate them. The best published benchmark is the 2025 CareScout Cost of Care Survey Texas median of $5,666 a month ($184 per day) for a private one-bedroom in assisted living, which is a statewide figure, not an Austin one.
Austin's rapid growth, competitive labor market, and newer inventory generally push local pricing above the Texas median. We do not publish an Austin-specific dollar figure because no primary source publishes one. Ask each community directly for a current all-in monthly quote.
CareScout does not survey memory care as a separate category, so no authoritative memory care median exists for Texas or for Austin. Any memory care price you see quoted online is an estimate, not survey data. Expect a certified memory care place to cost more than assisted living in the same building.
Ask for the base rent, the care-level fee your parent would be assessed at today, and what moves them to the next level, all in writing. See what senior care costs in the Austin area and how STAR+PLUS can cover assisted living services.

- How many of your 70 Alzheimer's-certified places are open, and what is the overnight staff ratio inside the secured unit?

- Is the management company the same one that was here two years ago, and how long has the executive director been in post?

- What does the care-level assessment cost and how often is it repeated?
