Welcome to Silverleaf

A community built around the people in it

Silverleaf Eldercare is for families looking for an Austin senior living community that feels more like a home than a facility. Bee Cave is purpose built for care and deliberately small, two 16 room buildings on one campus rather than one large building housing dozens of residents. That size lets our caregivers know each resident personally and shape care around who they are.

The goal is simple: highly personalized care that gives seniors the best quality of life possible, and gives their families real peace of mind.

How Silverleaf began

Started by a family who needed it

The need

Silverleaf began with a family caring for a father living with a degenerative memory illness. A few hours of in home help was not enough, and full time caregiving was consuming the health of the spouse carrying it.

The discovery

When they found small scale assisted living, where caregivers knew every resident by name, they saw what senior care could be, and opened Silverleaf to offer it in Austin.

Today

Silverleaf remains privately owned and operated by people, not a corporation or a real estate group, under owner Parker Patterson.
