Job Description
Blue Skies of Texas Senior Living Community is a distinguished and well-established provider of senior living services based in San Antonio, Texas. Established originally as Air Force Village I in 1970 and later expanded with Air Force Village II in 1987, the community was initially designed to serve officers of the armed forces, offering a retirement lifestyle enriched with camaraderie and a strong sense of community bonding. Over time, Blue Skies of Texas has evolved to welcome a broader range of retired seniors, including those from civilian careers, broadening its reach and impact while maintaining its core values and mission. The two campuses, now known as Blue Skies East and Blue Skies West, continue to provide high-quality residences with an array of senior-focused amenities and services that promote well-being, independence, and social engagement.

This culture supports the delivery of exceptional care to residents, focusing on creating a vibrant, supportive, and family-like atmosphere where seniors feel safe, respected, and empowered in their daily lives.
