Through a great deal of research online, my family children, and their spouses researched across the country.Because no one lives in dallas and they looked for the place , they thought I would be most comfortable and I know what they considered , they considered location and price and living conditions and the fact I could bring my cat very important and activities and would I be Comfortable, I had no actual medical problems to deal with.So it was mainly living conditions and accessibility for me and it has been the best decision that they made and I went with themOkay.

The Monarch was absolutely the best place for my father! I only wish I could have convinced him to make the move sooner. The staff are so caring and competent. Melissa, the activities director, could get him to join any activity. He was a quite man to watch him flourish late in life was such a joy. I attribute that to everyone who worked there. Kim and Carol made the transition to and from the Monarch stress free.

I moved my family member to the Monarch at Richardson in June 2025, it’s been an excellent decision. The directors are very knowledgeable and involved, staff are kind and compassionate about residents. I’m incredibly satisfied with care and attention to my families needs. I recommend the Monarch if you are looking for a smaller community and excellent attention to details. Update- it’s been more than 6 months and it’s still excellent.
