This detailed information was obtained directly from the Director of Sales at The Blake At New Braunfels via email on Nov. 9, 2023.
Overview of Professional Staff and Training

Safety and Well-being Measures
I would rather answer this question directly as I am not sure what specific information you are looking for.
Transition Support Services
We provide an orientation with every Department head and offer a community Directory with most of the information they need to help residents transition smoothly into the community.
Transportation Services
While we do not offer personal transportation, we do take residents to doctor's visits on Tuesdays and Thursdays, as well as go on planned excursions Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.
Dining Experience
True restaurant quality service is what we offer. Our daily featured dish for each meal and an "Always available menu" cater to different preferences. Our kitchen and dining room staff are dedicated solely to providing a top-notch dining experience, ensuring that our care staff are focused on their primary responsibilities and not assisting in the kitchen.
Addressing Resident Complaints and Issues
Residents can let the Department Head know or tell the concierge about any complaints or issues so that the message is conveyed to the appropriate department head. I would rather answer this question directly as I am not sure what specific information you are looking for.
Cost of Living
The cost depends on the care neighborhood (AL or MC), care level, and unit type. Pricing for a studio apartment in AL starts at $4,400 and MC starts at $6,400.
Communication with Residents' Families
Communication is customized based on the families' wishes. We use a portal and a system called Life Loop to connect with all families with individualized information, ensuring they are kept updated about their loved ones' well-being according to their preferences.
Short-term or Respite Stays
Because we have been 100% leased for a few months, we do not currently offer respite. If we did, the price would be $250 per day for AL respite and $275 per day for MC respite.
Pet-Friendly Community
Yes, we are a pet-friendly community. MC residents cannot have a pet. AL residents can have pets if they can care for them themselves. We allow cats and dogs under 35 lbs. There is a $500 pet community fee as well as a $20 monthly pet fee for pets residing at The Blake with their owners.
Waitlist Information
We do have a waitlist, but currently, we have a one-bedroom, one-bedroom deluxe in AL, and a Studio and deluxe studio available in MC.
