Welcome to Manor Park
Assisted Living with Memory Support
The Vogel Center is located in the south wing of Helen Greathouse Manor. It offers 29 private apartments in a home-like atmosphere for residents in the early stages of Alzheimer's disease or related disorders who need memory support. Activities are purpose-driven and residents are encouraged to interact with each other and staff.
Residents receive three daily meals and snacks as well as staff support as they accomplish activities of daily living. Medical care, nursing services, medication management and rehabilitation services are provided for residents who require 24-hour supervision in a secure environment. The Vogel Center is licensed by the Texas Department of Aging and Disability Services. Services are available through private funding only.
