I have lived at Blue Skies for 5 years. The entire staff continues to amaze us
with their extraordinary care, love, and support. They do this not only during
‘ordinary’ times but in this challenging time as well.
FRANK H, RESIDENT
We moved here to find the best of both worlds! Moving here while
still able to live independently, we have taken the hard task of
providing future care decisions as we age, off our children’s plate.
Our first reaction was that this looked like home.
ROLAND & BARBARA K, RESIDENTS
It’s kind of crazy, but you always hear retired people say
they’re busier in retirement than when they were working,
and it really turned out to be true!
PAT P, RESIDENT
We moved in and it was like, ‘Whoa!
This is where we belong. Everything’s here.’
FIDEL & EPPIE E, RESIDENTS
We found our ‘Forever Home’ at Blue Skies of Texas!
It is the best and friendliest senior living value that we visited.
ED & ANN A, RESIDENTS
My wife and I have decided this is where we’re
planning on living when we retire. We want our children
to care about us, not have to care for us.
GENERAL DARRELL JONES, CEO
Living at Blue Skies of Texas West for seven years has been a great experience.
The administration, the staff, and the residents create a dynamic atmosphere that
would be hard to beat. I call it ‘my little place just this side of Heaven!’

About Rehab Services
Those who need short-term rehab want to recover and return to their routines of daily living as quickly as possible. So short-term rehab takes advantage of the high-level, comprehensive care the skilled nursing – or long-term care – setting provides.
Recovery rates vary from individual to individual. Blue Skies maintains an average 19-day stay – short enough to comfortably challenge the person to assume responsibility for their continuing recovery, and long enough to ensure there’ll be no relapse.
Our rehab services are available to both Blue Skies residents and non-residents like! Through direct admission, the greater community can benefit from our experienced rehabilitation team and facilities.
