Memory Care
My mom lives here and everything is going good so far. She seemed to adjust really fast, too. This was the first place we toured and we just fell in love. My mom likes it and she seems content and happy, which makes me happy. The staff is easy to communicate with, they’re really good if I have any questions or concerns and they listen to me and take care of whatever is going on. I ate one meal with her before she actually moved in and it was okay. I did go to this meal that they held where families could come and eat with the residents. The food was good with that. She tells me that some of the food is good and some of it isn’t so I guess it’s hit or miss. The facility is really good cleanliness wise, it looks nice and clean and smells good. My mom’s room is always nice and clean. They take her laundry and do that, empty her garbage daily, and housekeeping will come by and vacuum once a week. It always looks clean when I go in there. The community offers tons of activities like crafts, manicures, and church services. She’s really getting out and mingling and doing a lot of things that she wouldn’t be able to if she were still at home. She gets help with her medications, which is an extra charge, but everything else has been included in the monthly price, however I think their prices are dependent on the level of care needed.
We had a pleasant experience. The staff were wonderful and caring. Alexis, the administrator there, was very nice and compassionate, and wonderful to work with. It wasn't the right fit for my mom, but they handled it very professionally and compassionately. I have nothing negative to say, and I highly recommend them.
We picked this community, because of the caring staff. They have made my loved one feel pretty much at home. They have activities, such as; trips, movies, bingo, craft, choir, and special events for the holidays. I would recommend to other families.
