Memory Care
Best is the staff is great and friendly, they care about the residents. Also the rooms are very good sizes. Worst is it's expensive, worth the money as far as value but still expensive.
The facility was a good place. It was very clean. The staff wasn't extremely friendly at first, but they warmed up to us. Mom was a tough cookie, but they got to know her and took good care of her. We were very happy with the care she received here. Communication with the family was good, they called often. Housekeeping was great and her room was always very clean and smelled good. The food seemed ok. I would recommend them to family and friends.
I placed my mother at Belmont Village, as she could not manage on her own at home after hospital and rehab visit. The entire staff was warm and welcoming !! They did everything possible to accommodate my mother in just a few days. The nurses and caregivers were consistently professional, warm and helpful. The residents were friendly and the facility clean and welcoming. The food is great !! I’ve always felt assured when visiting my mother and she was making new friends !!
