What does Brookdale Club Hill's Type A license mean?
Brookdale Club Hill holds a Type A assisted living license, so every resident must be able to leave the building unassisted in an emergency, follow directions to evacuate and not need routine attendance overnight.
If a resident's mobility or cognition declines to the point they would need help evacuating, a Type A facility generally cannot keep them. Ask how the community handles that transition.
No Alzheimer's certification appears on Brookdale Club Hill's HHSC record, so it may not advertise a specialized Alzheimer's unit. Families looking for a secured memory care unit should compare the certified communities.
Who is Brookdale Club Hill a good fit for?
Brookdale Club Hill suits independent-leaning adults who need help with medications, meals or bathing but can still evacuate on their own; its Type A license means it is not set up for residents who need hands-on help in an emergency.
At this size expect a full activity calendar, several dining venues and a larger care team, with more residents per caregiver than a small home.
Who owns and operates Brookdale Club Hill?
HHSC lists the licensee for Brookdale Club Hill as Blcclub Hill LLC (limited liability company), with no separate management company listed.

How much does Brookdale Club Hill cost?
HHSC does not publish rates, and we do not list prices for individual facilities, so ask Brookdale Club Hill for its current written rate sheet and care-level fees. For context, assisted living in the Dallas metro typically runs $3,800 to $5,800 per month in 2026.
Paying for it: Texas Medicaid's STAR+PLUS Home and Community Based Services waiver can pay for care services in a participating assisted living facility, but not room and board. STAR+PLUS participation is contracted through the Medicaid managed care plans, not shown on the HHSC license, so ask Brookdale Club Hill directly whether it has open STAR+PLUS beds. Veterans and surviving spouses may qualify for VA Aid and Attendance. See our Garland assisted living cost guide.
