At The Cottages at Texarkana, we believe that quality care isn’t just about meeting medical needs—it’s about creating a life that feels meaningful, comfortable, and full of choice. That’s why our team embraces person-centered care, a model that puts residents’ preferences, needs, and individuality at the heart of everything we do.
Person-centered care focuses on understanding each resident as a unique individual, rather than just a set of medical needs. It involves listening to their stories, learning their routines, and respecting their personal preferences—from meal choices to daily schedules to hobbies and activities.
By tailoring care to each resident, we help them maintain independence, build confidence, and stay engaged in ways that are meaningful to them. Residents can choose how they spend their day, participate in activities they enjoy, and maintain the routines that make them feel at home. This approach not only supports physical health but also emotional and social well-being, creating a sense of purpose and fulfillment.
Whether it’s enjoying a favorite activity, spending time with friends and family, or receiving support in a way that feels natural, our team works to ensure every resident feels seen, heard, and valued. From personalized meal planning to one-on-one engagement and household-style living, person-centered care transforms everyday moments into opportunities for joy, connection, and independence.
Residents who experience person-centered care are more engaged, happier, and more confident in their abilities. Families notice the difference too, appreciating that their loved ones are supported in a way that respects who they are as individuals.
At The Cottages at Texarkana, person-centered care is more than a philosophy—it’s a way of life. By focusing on what truly matters to each resident, we help ensure that every day is meaningful, comfortable, and full of opportunities to thrive.
