Our family is thankful for the care our sister receives at Elan Corpus Christi Memory Care. She is happy there ~ she enjoys the food, loves the caregivers, and tells us how blessed she feels to be a part of this community. The staff are attentive, kind, and communicate with us when she needs personal items or to give us updates. The Nurse Practitioner keeps us informed about her health and wellbeing. It brings us comfort to know our sister is content, safe, and surrounded by people who care for her. We are grateful to the Elan Corpus Christi team for all they do!!!!

Elan Corpus Christi

Élan Corpus Christi offers assisted living and memory care within a newly built facility in Southern Texas. Corpus Christi is a beach-front community flanked by the beautiful Padre Island National Seashore and Mustang Island. As a quiet residential city, it’s known for its family-friendly culture and attractions, such as the aquarium and naval and aviation museum.

The sleek and colorful facility at Élan Corpus Christi houses a large group home for seniors seeking assisted living and memory care. A lighthearted atmosphere pervades this home, from the patterned furniture to the art room. Residents can access 24-hour assistance, medication management, scheduled transportation, and housekeeping. Seniors are never short of things to do here. They can watch an action film in the theater, dig in the community garden, get a new haircut at the salon, work out at the fitness studio, attend an art class, or receive pet therapy.

The caring and professional staff focus strongly on making sure residents retain a sense of freedom and self while at Élan Corpus Christi. Caregivers work hard to learn each resident’s interests and personality and help facilitate activities to keep seniors engaged and social. While the beautiful new facilities are a perk, the fun-loving and conscientious...

A great placefor Mom

Everything worked out great. Very nice facility. It has been the best change we could have made for her. She really did not want to move but she was forgetting to take her meds and needed daily help with orther daily functions. If something is not right the staff catches it right away. Stsff checks in on her through out the day. Mother is adapting much better than we ever thought she would. We and she made the right choice.

Everyone is so friendly and helpful! The food is excellent way better than what we were use to! Everyone makes my Mom feel special! We moved here so excited from our family perspective my mom was hesitant to move, but now she is so happy she made this move. We are too. We are grateful for [name remove] the community relations director. [name remove] the executive director has helped us with anything we needed and we are grateful. The activities director [name remove] is amazing and they have a ton of things to keep my mom active. [name remove] the maintenance director also has helped us in anyway mom has needed. The care staff is awesome and so are the housekeepers. We are thankful for this community.

Perfect choice for mom

We moved my mom on short notice under somewhat stressful circumstances. The staff at Elan has made this transition so easy. Everything about this place is perfect. It's clean. The food is great. The staff members are kind and friendly. The residents all have smiles on their faces. I'm confident that we could not have found a better place. Chose Elan. You won't regret it.

more than just a place to live—it’s a place to thrive.

Elan Senior Assisted Living is not only beautiful in its design—it's beautiful at its core. The staff is warm, welcoming, and genuinely caring. They treat residents with the utmost respect, making them feel like honored guests in their own home. Their attentiveness and compassion create a comforting environment where residents feel safe and valued. The sense of community is truly special. The residents are lovely, and there’s a strong atmosphere of inclusion. From engaging activities to meaningful devotionals, Elan fosters connection and belonging. I have such peace of mind knowing my mom is cared for by amazing people. It’s clear that Elan is more than just a place to live—it’s a place to thrive.

Review for Elan Corpus Christi

We have only positive, complimentary thoughts about Elan! Everything has been great here! Almost too good to be true --except it IS TRUE !! [name removed] has been here over a year already, and I have spent MUCH time with him here too. 1. They will do anything within state laws and their policy to accommodate residents/family wishes. 2. The facility is fairly new, but looks brand new, extremely well-maintained, and extremely clean. 3. Administration personnel are extremely professional, knowledgeable, helpful, kind, compassionate. 4. The aides who assist the residents are angels! They are awesome! Their patience, tolerance, knowledge of best practices, and kindness are outstanding! 4. We needed to find a location that had "memory care" and allowed residents to 'wander' anytime. It is locked where they cannot escape, but has access to a very large area to walk/wander at will, and even go outside to a beautifully landscaped, closed-in courtyard with a cement walkway. (This was a major consideration in our decision!! ) The courtyard also has covered areas with tables and rocking chairs to relax and enjoy the fresh air and sunshine. In the center of the courtyard is a birdfeeder where many birds come to eat, and the residents can enjoy watching them. 5. The meals are prepared by chefs and are delicious.! Meals are well seasoned, and not bland like in hospitals. They serve plenty with hardly any repetition of menus. 6. Because my husband has severe hallucinations which cause danger to him, they allowed me to stay in his room several months to keep him safe. And often, they brought me meals too. 7. A good-sized, private room, with private bathroom at Elan-Corpus Christi costs me almost $[removed]less per month than [community removed] for a 8'x 8' space in a semi private room/bathroom. And this place is so much nicer. 8. On the other side of the facility is 'assisted-living', which some people may be interested in. 9. This facility has a beauty shop, and art room with art lessons, and all sorts of activities and gatherings, including for their families occasionally in the evening. Our family and I definitely recommend ELAN - Corpus Christi to families looking for the very best place for their loved ones. We are thankful that "A Place For Mom" recommended that we tour ELAN-Corpus Christi. It has been such a blessing for us!

Elan was marvelous. Very informative. compassionate

The individual I worked with was very informative and addressed all my questions. She understood my situation and was able to provide me with alternative options. I did this for a friend who needed this visit to determine options for herself and husband. It's going to be difficult for me to describe them and help her make tough life style changes. This person gave me names of people to call to aid in her choices. even showed me the types of rooms available. but left everything open so we can come back and get any more info needed. Kudos for being so kind and generous with a novice!

modern community with warm environment and friendly staff

[name removed] was easy to talk to and attended to all of our concerns. We were able to schedule the tour rather quickly. She didn't pressure us to make a decision. Staff seemed average. Nothing wrong, but typical care ratio you would see in an assisted living facility. Apartments were bigger than I expected and appeared to be well maintained.

Gorgeous facility and amazing staff. Even the residents are a joy to listen to - seemingly wonderful place to call home. [name removed] and her entire staff love these residents and it shows - for those we love, caring for them in their time of need is essential; let [name removed] and her team do the hard work so that you can be the family your loved ones need l.

Friendly staff and definitely nice communities.

5 on all categories.. I knew the director from another facility. It's a great place to live. I have visited every place in Corpus and surrounding areas and Elan Corpus Christi and [community name removed] are the only ones I would recommend. I have known people in some of the other facilities and there were always complaints. Food, slow response to problems etc. Elan Corpus Christi always addressed the issues with urgency and efficiently.

Corpus Christi Elan

After touring five facilities for our 81-year-old mom with dementia, Elan Corpus Christi stood out immediately. It’s modern, spotless, and welcoming—but the real difference is the people. [name removed], the Executive Director, and [name removed], the Community Relations Director, lead with heart. The entire staff embodies compassion, warmth, and patience. After moving in, [name removed] brought a dozen roses and a hand-signed welcome card. She sat with Mom, helped brush her hair, and applied her lipstick so she could take a photo. [name removed] personally stopped by her apartment and walked her to bingo when she noticed she was feeling anxious. Those personal touches meant the world to us. The attention, care, and kindness shown to both Mom and our family have been above and beyond. I’ve asked a hundred questions, and not once did anyone make me feel like a burden. Every staff member treats Mom like she’s their own. This isn’t a job for them—it’s a calling. To be continued…

overall a good fit for Dad.

We really like the facility administration and staff, everyone tries to be be helpful. My Dad has significant short term memory loss due to a stroke and I believe his deficits require a more repetative/structured approach than some other residents. I would encourage families to communicate as much as possible with staff and administration to address specific needs. My Dad has both memory and visual deficits. I don't necessarily think the activities are lacking, it's more that it's hard for him to engage in some of the activities available like bingo and art. He is a musician and loves listening and playing. I think adding more music related activities in the memory care section would benefit him and all of the residents.

Amazing and committed staff

Elan Assisted Living has patiently walked beside us since the end of June even though my father did not move in until November. The community relations director was compassionate about my father's decline. She often offered insight to his condition and support when we felt discouraged. We never felt pushed or hurried to get him to become a resisdent. Instead, we felt like we had people who were partnered alongside us, with the same goal of getting my father in a safe environment to receive the care he needs. They personally took time to visit with my dad and built a rapport with him. The facility is beautiful, bright and clean. All the staff are polite and genuinely care about the residents and the family. I would highly recommend this facility. They are experienced with dementia patients and are compassionate.

Compassionate care

Elon Assisted Living Memory Care is a shining example of compassion and care, providing a warm and welcoming home for many, including my father, who required more care than he could receive living alone. This beautiful community is filled with happy residents, and the caregivers and management team are dedicated to providing exceptional care and support to each resident and their families. Whether you thrive in social settings or prefer quieter moments, this community is designed to meet your needs. The dining experience is exceptional, with attentive staff catering to each individual's preferences. For those who prefer privacy, meals can be enjoyed in the comfort of their own space. The nurses, caregivers, and management team are outstanding in their fields, with [name removed] being a standout in her role, offering invaluable guidance and support during our father's transition. The genuine care and concern shown to our loved ones.Is an unwavering commitment I am filled deep with Gratitude

LOOK NO FURTHER!

We have only positive, complimentary thoughts about Elan! Everything has been great here! Almost too good to be true --except it IS TRUE !! [name removed] has been here 3 1/2 months now. 1. They will do anything within their policy to accommodate residents/family wishes. 2. The facility is fairly new, but looks brand new, extremely well-maintained, and extremely clean. 3. Administration personnel are extremely professional, knowledgeable, helpful, kind, compassionate. 4. The aides who assist the residents are angels! They are awesome!

Because my husband has severe hallucinations which cause danger to him, they allow me to stay in his room to keep him safe. And often, they bring me meals too. I have been sleeping in a recliner next to his bed for almost 3 months! 7. A good-sized, private room, with private bathroom at Elan-Corpus Christi costs me almost $400 less per month than Gulf Pointe Plaza in Rockport for a 8'x 8' space in a semi private room/bathroom. And this place is so much nicer. 8. On the other side of the facility is 'assisted-living', which some people may be interested in. 9. This facility has a beauty shop, and art room with art lessons, and all sorts of activities and gatherings, including for their families occasionally in the evening. Our family and I definitely recommend ELAN Corpus Christi to families looking for the very best place for their loved ones. We are thankful that "A Place For Mom"recommended that we tour ELAN-Corpus Christi. It has been such a blessing for us!
