Barton House
Barton House is a place where a person with Alzheimer’s disease or dementia is welcome. Our private resident rooms and spacious common areas create a warm environment. This is home. This is Barton House.
For over 20 years, we’ve been working with people with Alzheimer’s disease. Our philosophy of care is quite simple. Focus on strengths rather than weaknesses. Be kind, always. Never stop trying to communicate.
Compassionate caregivers with years of dementia specific knowledge. Many have been with Barton House since the beginning – 1998. Our unique team embodies our philosophy of care.
Kitchen is the heart of every home. Barton House is no different. All meals are home-made and thoughtfully prepared for individuals with dementia.
Residents enjoy a shaded backyard overlooking the lake. Granite walking paths lead to raised garden boxes, a gazebo & swing. All are perfect spots for conversations with friends and family.
In her early twenties, May traveled with the USO to entertain our U.S. troops.
Her skill as a musician and singer lifted many lives.
Later raising two children she watched them as they became involved in different businesses.
May’s bright spirit and smile still lights up a room at Barton House.
We believe this is her to time to receive back the love she graced upon others.
Charlie took over his father’s hardware store in the late 1940’s and built an even bigger business.
People said it was due to Charlie’s willingness to help others in his community.
Became a father to three daughters and 4 grandchildren.
Charlie survived battles with cancer and other challenges.
At Barton House we are reminded of how lucky we are to have such great individuals such as Charlie.
A uniquely high resident to staff ratio allows our caregivers to spend more quality time with each resident. We tailor the care based on the individual needs of our residents by understanding their medical, social, cultural, and generational history.
Through cognitive, recreational and social experiences that are individualized we celebrate daily successes and promote independence.
Barton House is a safe community both indoors and out. With only 20 residents, they have the freedom to enjoy all areas of the home. By honoring their preferences we can preserve their individuality by continuing to offer choices.
We understand the stress of caring for a loved one. Barton House always offers a listening ear, a kind word, and advice based on 20 years’ experience.

The Long Search. The Right Choice.
“Two years ago my Dad came to live at Barton House.
I love the small, family-like environment. You feel like you are in someone’s home, complete with happy voices, music, and yummy smells. My Dad is always groomed and dressed in clean clothes, no matter what time of the day I drop by. The staff is 100% dedicated to know each resident as an individual.
Activities are planned throughout the day. Entertaining
programs scheduled several times a week to keep them engaged.I would recommend Barton House to anyone looking for a
place for a loved one with Alzheimer’s to live.”
“Your care for the residents is obviously a “calling” and ministry. You love on them – you are patient and kind. You offer dignity and give respect to folks with this disease.
Thank you for caring for my mom. Your staff is remarkable!”
“I want to thank you and everyone again for being so wonderful. You guys have made this experience less difficult and it is truly appreciated.”
“You have the best caregivers in the world!!!!! You enrich our lives with the loving care you give every day. We are blessed to have you in our lives. The Smith Family
The nurses called me about everything, even the smallest bump. The staff was always friendly and my Dad always looked nice and did not smell. I was welcome to visit him 24/7. Dad’s care and safety during Hurricane Harvey was amazing. I was flooded in, but they texted me for 3 days about their dry status. Other facilities were not so lucky. I even recommended Barton House in my funeral message.
Thank you for caring for my mom. You made the last seven months of her life, the best it could possibly be. Your staff is remarkable!!”
“I felt so safe leaving her in their loving hands”
The house was always clean, the staff was always friendly and helpful and my mother was always happy.
I liked the family atmosphere. The way they meet the individual needs and desires of each resident. They truly love them and express that love to them and their families.
Barton House has been an integral part of my family’s lives. We will always be so grateful and thankful for the love and care that was given to David there and for the friendships that were forged along the way. May God bless each of you is our prayer.”
