Cedar Ridge Alzheimer's Special Care Center

I helped my friend get in this memory card community. It is nice and clean and kept up. The staff is nice and friendly. She has only been her less than a week but Id recommend this community.

One of the most important things about a community is knowing that my loved one is safe and this is definitely the place. The staff does a good job encouraging my mother in participating in activities. I would recommend the Cedar Ridge to other friends and families their services are above and beyond.

This community was more for memory care. My dad did not need assistance with this or we may have considered this community. The director that took me on my tour was nice and knowledgable. The community seemed clean and well taken care of.

The memory care is the part that we looked at in Cedar Ridge. I didn't feel it was the right fit. It was getting to be dinner time and the residents were all congregating around. They were waiting until a certain time for the dining room to be open. I'm sorry it just seemed kind of creepy. [removed] Also I didn't like that they didn't even have the option to lock the bedroom doors. We ended up going with a smaller facility.

Although Dad has only been there about a month, he seems happy and is adjusting fairly well to new routines. Everyone is friendly and helpful.

We toured here in searching for an alternative to our current place. It was kind of the same set up here and situation, as where we are now. It doesn't make sense to move to something we already have.

Not very impressed, no medicaid, $6,850 per month private, mattresses on the floor to prevent falls, pretty beat up.

My mother has been living here for about six weeks, and it has been a good fit so far. The primary care is amazing. Everyone my mother sees to help her get dressed in the morning, help her to the dining room, etc., is incredibly nice and they provide an amazing level of one-on-one care. I have seen some issues with the level of communication among staff members. When my mother's medical care shifted from her own doctor to the services provided at Cedar Ridge, I had to repeatedly explain to the staff what was needed, instead of them communicating with each other. I felt like this could have been handled much better with more communication. Otherwise, our experience at Cedar Ridge has been good so far.

Cedar Ridge is the first place we looked act and the one our family chose for our Mom! The people at Cedar Ridge are Special. The hugs are plentiful and their kindness knows no bounds. It is clean and the care is awesome! My Mom asked how long she was going to stay at the resort. My sister and I would like to make reservations for twenty years from now! It is so hard to find a truly wonderful place but I can tell we have been blessed to find Cedar Ridge and their wonderful staff and residents! We can't thank them enough!

25 March 2013 toured. Senior mgmt very experienced. Nice environment - pocket areas for residents to be alone but out of room. Current maintenance person not very skilled. Calendar not overly full on a daily basis. Helpful in explaining importance of State certified vs. Nurse certified Med Aids. Did not go with this facility due to cost as it relates to other quality facilities I visited. Would trust the care provided by this property. Not a fan of the semi-private rooms that have one entrance and both beds in one room for a man who is still mobile. I assume women would handle this layout better.

*They make a very good 1st impression *The place looked really nice *The staff seemed very caring & competent

Beautiful, excellent "memorable moments" program. Met with Director. Many options for advancing care.
