WELCOME TO AUSTIN RETIREMENT & NURSING CENTER
“The Best Place to Give Care and the Best Place to Get Care.”
In addition to our recent remodeling project, we have created a special Memory Care Community for those who require specialized memory care and a higher level of supervision. Our separate memory care unit is designed to provide a safe, structured environment with set routines to lower stress for people with Alzheimer’s or dementia.
TESTIMONIALS & REVIEWS
See What Family Members Have to Say About Austin RNC
Thank you.
“Choosing a nursing home for a loved one is one of the hardest thing you can do. I looked at the nursing home ratings on line. then visited a dozen or so retirement facilities, RNC stood out. Retirement Nursing Center was one of the only ones I would consider. Mom flourished there for a good while. Illness overtook her almost 4 years after she arrived, specialist predicted she might last a month. RNC has lots of things to do every day. They have some of the same issues others do with short staff, but they try hard. They are very open to requests and suggestions and try to be as accommodating as possible. Mom was as happy as she could be, all things considered. They were very supportive and there were many tears from the staff when she passed.”
“After visiting RNC today I just had to post this beautiful lobby. I would consider this skilled nursing facility for my parents. The staff that I have met are very friendly and knowledgeable about the business.
Check it out!”
FEATURING A NEW STATE-OF-THE-ART MEMORY & DEMENTIA CARE UNIT
Because people with dementia are prone to wander, our memory care facility is a separate unit with alarmed doors, and enclosed outdoor spaces to keep residents on site.
Supervision is provided 24 hours a day by our staff who are trained to deal with the unique issues that often arise as a result of dementia or Alzheimer’s.
Call (512) 452-5719 for more information.

SOCIAL SERVICES
The social worker helps new residents make the transition from a previous living environment while meeting their social/emotional comfort needs. Once the resident is
established, the social worker assures the resident’s continuing needs are met and that the person is given the opportunity to participate in planning for continued care in the facility, transfer, or discharge back into the community.
