Teresa’s House is a Community, Not a Facility
Our Senior Living Communities Near Ft.
Worth and McKinney Are Different
Your loved one deserves exceptional care, and our mission at Teresa’s House is to always exceed your expectations. Our McKinney home is not a “facility,” it’s a senior living community that provides intentional care of the highest caliber. Our beautiful ranch-style homes provide a warm, home-like setting that prioritizes independence, comfort, and individuality while preserving dignity.
Locally Owned and Operated, Not Managed by a Corporation
Most memory care and assisted living communities are part of large chains, so decisions about your loved one’s care and daily life are made by people they have never met.
When it came to designing their own assisted living and memory care residence, our founders knew they wanted to be intimately involved in every aspect of the development and operation of Teresa’s House. In addition to research-backed programs and thoughtful design decisions, they offer their presence. Teresa Whittington, RN, BSN, a registered nurse, and Godwin G. Dixon, NFA, an experienced administrator, are both on-site at Teresa’s House, working with and getting to know residents, their families, and all staff members.
So if you have a question or concern, Teresa’s House leadership and ownership are present and accessible. We are passionate about providing exceptional care to everyone who walks through the door.
Communal Spaces Create Meaningful Connections
As we age, the activities we once found joy in can become overwhelming or confusing. As our physical and mental abilities change over time, it can be all too tempting to retreat into an isolated and sedentary lifestyle.
Being connected to family, friends, and their care team is vitally important for your loved one’s well-being. Many care facilities feature communal spaces and group activities, but they do not always place those things in the larger context of assisted living and memory care. Being active and engaged, taking part in purposeful and meaningful activities, and having overall well-being are the ultimate goals for our residents’ wellness at Teresa’s House, and cultivating a vibrant senior living community amongst our residents and caregivers is the foundation of our philosophy.
Personalized care plans, instead of standardized care
Every resident in our senior living community is a beloved, whole, complex person with specific needs and personal preferences. Our exceptional team provides personalized programming designed to support independence while reinforcing a sense of purpose in our residents’ lives. We honor the life your loved one has lived while offering research-backed guidance as they continue on their journey.
The size of our homes ranges from twelve to sixteen suites—big enough for fun group activities, but small enough to foster genuine community. This level of care can only be provided by the most highly trained caregivers, which is why we have professionally trained care staff on-site at all times, and a licensed nurse(s) on the premises 24/7. Along with extensive and ongoing training, we maintain an industry-leading 1:5 staff-to-resident ratio during waking hours that allows for truly personalized care and unparalleled responsiveness. This level of personal attention can truly make a life-changing difference when it comes to both preventative and emergency care.
Not Just Healthcare . . . Holistic Wellness
We emphasize purposeful living through attention to the body, mind, and soul. This holistic approach to wellness takes the form of volunteer opportunities and a range of daily activities that allow residents of our senior living community to continue pursuing their passions and interests. Helping residents thrive through meaningful and purposeful living is woven into all aspects of care here.
We prioritize programs and procedures that support our residents’ dignity, improve their overall health, expose them to new experiences, and connect them to the world outside the walls of Teresa’s House. Each element of our 7 Dimensions of Wellness program—which encompasses social, emotional, physical, intellectual, environmental, spiritual, and occupational well-being—is founded on best practices for successful senior living.
