Home›Kyle›Memory Care

Memory care is secured, dementia-specific assisted living. In Texas it is not a separate license — it is an Alzheimer's certification layered on a Type B license, and it carries physical plant requirements that are inspected on site.

Short answer

We list 2 verified memory care options in Kyle, Texas. Assisted living and memory care in Texas are licensed by HHSC as Type A or Type B based on residents' evacuation ability, and memory care additionally requires an Alzheimer's certification.

What to watch for with memory care in Kyle

  • Ask to see the Alzheimer's certification, not the license. Any community can market to dementia families; only a certified one has been inspected against the standard.

The Kyle market specifically

Kyle sits on the I-35 corridor in fast-growing Hays County, with newer purpose-built assisted living and memory care. Hays County grew 26.3 percent between 2020 and 2025, and senior housing is still catching up to that, so availability can be better here than in Travis County.

Kyle's inventory is newer than most of the metro because the housing stock is. That helps on building quality and hurts on track record, since several communities here have short inspection histories to review.

The question about money nobody asks early enough

Ask what happens if private funds run out, and whether the community contracts with Medicaid managed care. A meaningful share of Austin-area communities do not participate at all, which converts a funding problem into a forced move at the worst possible moment.

Ask how many current residents are on STAR+PLUS. A community can hold a contract and still have no Medicaid capacity available.

You can check any Texas facility's record free. Use TULIP for current license status and the legacy HHSC provider search for inspection and deficiency history. Read the full explanation →

Questions Austin families ask

How much spending money does a Texas nursing home resident keep?

Texas sets the Personal Needs Allowance at $75 per month, raised from $60 effective January 1, 2024. That's well above the $30 federal minimum. Nearly all remaining income, after Medicare premiums, any spousal allowance, and allowable medical expenses, goes to the facility as applied income.

Will Texas take my mother's house after she goes on Medicaid?

Texas may file an estate recovery claim after death if she was 55 or older when receiving services and first applied for long-term services on or after March 1, 2005. This covers nursing home care and STAR+PLUS. Texas never recovers more than it paid, and exemptions and hardship waivers exist.

Does Texas have a state program that pays for assisted living?

Not broadly. Texas has no general state-funded assisted living benefit. Two narrow options exist: STAR+PLUS Medicaid waiver assisted living services covering care but not room and board, and the state-funded Residential Care program under Community Care for Aged and Disabled, funded by Title XX block grants with interest lists.

How do I get on the STAR+PLUS waiver list in Austin?

Call 2-1-1 or visit YourTexasBenefits.com to join the interest list, then apply for Medicaid. Next comes a medical necessity assessment, choosing a managed care organization, and building a service plan with a coordinator. The Capital Area ADRC at 855-937-2372 can help you navigate the process.
