The community has good staff; however I feel they are understaffed currently. There has been some staff turnover since my loved one moved into the community. Due to the staffing challenges this can cause delays in waiting for meals, care, and more. [name removed] the Director is wonderful; however she seems overworked. [name removed] is also wonderful. [name removed] does a great job with the activities for the residents.

I liked Butler Street, and my parents liked it a lot. The building was a converted nun’s convent turned school that has since been repurposed for senior living. They were very organized and seemed to have a lot of activities for everyone there. Their cost was just a little out of reach for us.
All of the staff members we have encountered so far have all been great and very friendly. We have had no problems with the meals and dining service that has been great so far. We really like how well laid out the community is - based on the tour our loved one really liked everything about it right away. Based on our experience so far we would recommend Butler Street Senior Living to other families.

They display love, affection, understanding, patience and fun. There is a sense of community. They care about my parents, and there individual needs. For example, my mom could not find her wig and one of the workers, found her wig, fixed her hair and helped mom. Overall, it has been a game changer.

I toured Butler Street Senior Living and it was really nice. The people were really nice and very friendly. The one thing I was uncomfortable with was the different flooring, and the metal stairs to go up and down; although there's an elevator. There was also only one shower per maybe 8 rooms. So you'd have to walk down the hallway to get to it. The community we chose has a shower and bathroom right in the room. The price was comparable to the other community, but chose them instead.
Response from Butler Street Senior Living
June 30, 2022Thank you so much for your kind words, William! I am so glad you enjoyed your tour of our community. I must mention though that all of our apartments DO in fact have individual bathrooms with showers! If you would like to take another look, please let us know, we are more than happy to give you a second tour.
The activities coordinator makes sure to have weekly bingo, and daily crafts. They also have different activities like baking, sewing, embroidering, painting classes and religious services. There is karaoke, different opportunities to go on day trips, and live entertainment. There is something going on daily for the residents. We are not sure about the overall quality of the meals but the food service is great. Based on our experience so far we would recommend them to other families..

The primary reason that we chose Butler Street was the location, it is close to the major hospitals. It also it a newer and clean facility. The price was very reasonable for all that they offered. The room sizes are very good, we are very happy with it. We are also super happy with all of the staff as well. They are friendly and seem to try to meet any questions or concerns that I have had. If they do not have an answer, they get me one as fast as they can. So far things are going. I would recommend the facility and already have. They offer a referral incentive so that was really nice.

We chose Butler Street Senior Living because they have a partnership with Fox rehabilitation and they are known to be one of the best and have been great. They are on site and so he does not have to leave. I really like the community areas that they have where families can come and get together. They are situated on 12 acres of land and they have a paved walking path so he has plenty of opportunity to get outside. There are many activities provided and he has made some friends here. I would recommend them to others looking.

We chose Butler Street because of the flexible choice of the level of care. They have a fixed rate for the apartment and up to 5 different levels of care ranging from minimal/none to dementia care that requires full supervision and daily assistance. Overall, I would recommend to others looking.

The community is very clean, the staff members have been great and when it comes to the care services they wait on our loved one hand and foot. She is extremely happy with the meals and dining service, that she really enjoys. They have a very nice activities director there that does a great job keeping the folks busy, our loved one has now kind of became her right hand man. The value for cost is about average compared to other places we checked out.

This facility was converted from a nunnery, which I found to be very interesting. But the rooms were small, and the bathrooms weren't very big either. Everything had been redone and looked brand new, but it was kind of plain. The price was higher than other places we looked at. I found it strange that the lobby had only chair, and the overall presentation when you walked in wasn’t that great. This one we thought was just okay.
