Does Liberty House at Blue Skies of Texas West offer memory care under its Texas license?

Liberty House at Blue Skies of Texas West is licensed Type B, so it may care for residents who need staff help to evacuate and need attendance at night, but its HHSC license shows no Alzheimer's certification.

Without that certificate a Texas facility should not market a dedicated memory care unit. Many Type B communities still accept residents with mild cognitive impairment; ask directly how the staff would handle wandering or exit-seeking, and at what point they would ask for a move.

What did HHSC inspectors find at Liberty House at Blue Skies of Texas West?

Liberty House at Blue Skies of Texas West's HHSC TULIP record lists 10 cited findings between April 2, 2025 and September 25, 2025: 1 from health (care) inspections and 9 from life safety code (fire and building) inspections. The most recent HHSC visit closed on September 25, 2025.

Read the health findings first, and ask the administrator what changed after each one.

How much does assisted living at Liberty House at Blue Skies of Texas West cost?

HHSC does not publish prices, and Liberty House at Blue Skies of Texas West sets its own rates, so get a written quote. As a benchmark, our 2026 San Antonio cost guide puts most local assisted living between about $3,800 and $5,500 a month, and memory care typically adds $1,000 to $2,000 a month on top of that.

• Ask for the base rent and the care-level fee separately; most San Antonio communities price care in tiers, so two communities with the same advertised rate can differ by hundreds of dollars once care is added.
• Ask what the last two annual increases were, in percent, and whether care fees can change mid-year after a reassessment.
• The 2024 Genworth and CareScout Cost of Care Survey put the national median for assisted living at $70,800 a year, so the San Antonio market remains below the national figure even after recent increases.
• Liberty House at Blue Skies of Texas West's TULIP record shows it does not accept Medicaid. If STAR+PLUS HCBS may be needed later, ask what happens to a resident who spends down savings.

See the San Antonio assisted living cost guide and the memory care cost guide for the detail.

How should families evaluate Liberty House at Blue Skies of Texas West before signing?

Start with the HHSC record, then test it in person: the most useful questions for Liberty House at Blue Skies of Texas West come straight from its Type B license, its 10 cited inspection findings and its enforcement history.
