Yes. Alzheimer's Care and Research Center Foundation holds HHSC Alzheimer's certificate #104313 covering 72 of its 72 licensed beds, valid through January 5, 2029. In Texas that certification is what lets a facility advertise memory care for Alzheimer's and related dementias.
Every licensed bed is in the certified unit, which means Alzheimer's Care and Research Center Foundation operates as a dedicated memory care community rather than assisted living with a memory care wing.
Alzheimer's Care and Research Center Foundation's HHSC TULIP record lists 3 cited findings on May 9, 2025: 0 from health (care) inspections and 3 from life safety code (fire and building) inspections. The most recent HHSC visit closed on May 9, 2025.
The most recent findings, in HHSC's own words:
For context, the median for San Antonio-area assisted living communities with 50 or more beds is 7 cited findings on the current TULIP record. A finding is a cited rule, not necessarily harm to a resident; life safety findings are often fire-door, sprinkler or exit-sign items. Read the health findings first, and ask the administrator what changed after each one.
No. The enforcement section of Alzheimer's Care and Research Center Foundation's HHSC TULIP record shows no administrative penalties or other enforcement actions as of October 24, 2026.
HHSC lists Alzheimer's Care and Research Center Foundation (nonprofit organization) as the license holder for Alzheimer's Care and Research Center Foundation, with no separate management company on the record.
The licensee is a nonprofit organization. That says nothing about care quality on its own, but nonprofit communities sometimes keep benevolent funds for residents who outlive their savings, so ask whether one exists and how it works.
