  Stubborn Seniors - When Does It Become Unfair To Family Caregivers?

Waxahachie, we were pleasantly surprised to see - has a lot to offer in terms of assisted living and senior care, for such a relatively small town (we've seen much larger towns that have very little to offer in this area). We found at least a half-dozen good communities of various sizes and capacities, offering basic assisted living services to advanced Alzheimer's and memory care.

The City of Waxahachie also has a good senior center, that was only recently built (completed in the spring of 2009). This is a 20,000 square foot center that offers a great number of programs and activities for Waxahachie-area seniors. The center provides fitness classes, computer instruction and classes, a library, sewing classes and much more. Members must be at least 50 years old. To find out more about the center, and membership information please call 972-937-8271.

In addition, there is a very good newsletter that can be downloaded in .pdf format that lists monthly events, and points of interest. For example, there may be a Blood Pressure check during a particular month, or perhaps a potluck dinner. The Senior Center also has a suggestion box that can be submitted anonymously - for suggestions and ideas pertaining to the Center.

The Calendar of Events can be accessed from the City of Waxahachie's senior ctr. webpage
