COVID Vaccines in Texas Assisted Living

Sundara’s Vaccine Response

New COVID vaccinations rolled out on a national level over the holidays and we are excited to announce that Sundara residents and staff were all offered the vaccine last on January 14th as part of Texas’s Department of state health services (DSHS) phase 1A distribution of vaccines. 

Sundara leadership is encouraged by the partnership with pharmacies and state services to quickly get the vaccine out to our residents. After such a challenging year, these vaccinations move us one step closer to resuming normalcy for residents and staff.

Please be assured that we are committed to the safety efforts we have in place such as wearing a mask, sanitation practices and physical distancing and will not let up on these best practices.

Let’s be honest. Senior care has increasingly become a business. A formula really, with frequent changes in ownership and management, slick marketing pitches, poor care quality, high staff turnover, and a corporate approach that treats residents like a commodity. Sundara is locally owned and operated by a team focused on making a difference; a real difference that families and their loved ones can appreciate. We are not in the business of selling fancy real estate with hyped-up programs and spa services. We don’t provide care from a menu. We don’t have a slew of add-on fees or upcharges. What we do have is a team of owners that share a 12-year history together and unmatched levels of accountability, consistency and flexibility. We also operate from a simple care philosophy based on the premise that residents are a part of our family…NOT a commodity. We look forward to getting to know you and your family. Real care by real people for real families.
