Anderson Mill is an enlarged private house, set in a quiet north west Austin neighborhood. There are no signs by design, as the house is truly the resident's home. We have had phenomenal stabilty with our staff, allowing the resdients and staff to become intimate with each other. Our motto is that we are a "great alternative to a nursing home"; life at Anderson Mill is very similar to life in one's own home, with the exception of 24 hour staff attending to the resident's every need. Anderson Mill does not shy away from higher maintenance residents, in fact, we are proud that many of our residents who were not thriving in a larger environment are now doing so.
