Assisted living is for someone who is largely independent but needs a reliable hand with the everyday things — bathing, dressing, medications, meals, getting to appointments. Texas licenses assisted living as Type A (residents who can self-evacuate, no routine nighttime attendance) or Type B (residents who need evacuation assistance or nighttime attendance).

Ridglea specifically
This is a common choice for families who want their parent to stay in a familiar west-side neighborhood rather than relocating across town.
The question about money nobody asks early enough
Ask what happens if private funds run out, and whether the community holds a Medicaid waiver provider agreement. A meaningful share of communities do not participate at all, which converts a funding problem into a forced move at the worst possible moment.
