Key Review Excerpts

Thru ups and downs, Thomas Manor in Friendswood has been the best place for my mom with dementia. The staff are kind, patient, and treat residents like family (the director even takes my calls day or night).

Memory care family member · 2025★★★★★

The facility is clean, beautiful and welcoming, but the heart of Thomas Manor is the staff. Having previously dealt with many issues at other facilities, I was nervous at first to see how my grandmother would be cared for.

Long-term resident's family · 2025★★★★★

The food is delicious and they have crafts, parties, and activities going on almost daily, as well. Love this place!!
