Assisted living facility director says her residents have yet to be vaccinated for coronavirus
HOUSTON โ A Houston area assisted-living facility director is sounding the alarm, saying her residents are not getting the vaccines they desperately need, despite her tireless efforts. Nixon Home Care is a homegrown business -- a network of assisted living facilities and an adult day care. The multiple assisted living facilities are next to or near each other and all located near the corner of Lynnfield and Bleker Street. Nixon Home Care has been operating for more than 20 years, despite being located in a neighborhood starved of resources. The Nixon Home Care Assisted Living facilities and Nixon Adult Day Care are a haven to dozens of elderly clients.
James Beard Award nominee turns acclaimed Houston restaurant into grocery store in wake of coronavirus closures
HOUSTON โ A James Beard Award nominated chef is reinventing his north Houston restaurant into a grocery store in the aftermath of closures due to coronavirus. In 2018, Jonny Rhodes opened Restaurant Indigo in the Trinity Gardens neighborhood where he grew up. Rhodes said his original reason for opening the grocery store was to provide healthier options for the community, where fresh foods are not easily found. He hopes to eventually re-open Indigo and expand the grocery store to a separate storefront. Broham Fine Soul Food and Groceries (formerly Indigo) is located at 517 Berry Road, Houston, Texas 77002.
