Charter Senior Living of Chattanooga

Overall she is fitting in my mother is difficult I do understand. The staff are fabulous. They are doing a remodeling and there is a pest issue which could possibly be an issue due to the remodeling. I wish they would encourage our loved one to take better care of herself, but again we do understand our loved one can be difficult. The food is ok, I have eaten a few times and would give that a 5. They do have quite a few activities and our loved one is getting involved more and more, that is a 10.

My Dad is very pleased with his situation at CSLC. He has gotten comfortable and styled in. The remodel has really provided him with a modern room . Having three meals provided is a big assistance in his day

The experience my loved one and I had with this location was beyond comprehension. There were many i unacceptable issues at this facility. The worst was when my loved one fell ill, and in the early hours of the morning needed to be taken by ambulance to the hospital. Where she was immediately placed into ICU, with end of life stages beginning. Myself, as the emergency contact, and the ONLY contact in her file WAS NEVER NOTIFIED. Not one phone call was made to me to let me know that she was even in the hospital. Not only was her emergency contact not notified, her DNR was not sent with her to the hospital. The hospital called Charter to ask if there was a DNR on file, and they said NO! I have records with confirmation of receipt by the Director when the DNR was emailed. How does such oversight happen? What kind of incompetence allows this to happen? There is no excuse not to contact the emergency person on file. The Director never advised how this happened. Do not trust this location.

Generally, the staff are very good. My sister likes the staff. However, when calling about a billing issue, I was to receive a call back (tried twice.) A few days later, finally did get a call from the financial person. Move in was good. The rent was quoted incorrectly at lease signing, by their staff. But I think the rent is okay and a good value.

I would tell a friend, that they should look elsewhere. My loved one chose the place. We were sold unrealized promises.The residents do not seem happy, either. It's a sad situation and a dreary place.

Summit VIew truly cares about the residents that live there. They help you advocate for your family member to ensure that they are about to be as independent as they possibly can. Their approach to people who are having cognitive difficulty is not to see them half empty and warehouse them it is to provide stimulating programs that help maintain there functional level. If you are looking at a different approach to care then visit Summit View

My parents (mother & stepfather) have been at Summit View in Chattanooga for several years. I have never seen anything but a clean facility that is staffed with caring people. When my mother died, the staff was definitely supportive and concerned for my stepfather's welfare. I live several states away and the staff welcomes my calls to check on 'how are things going' and always takes as much time as needed to talk with me. My visits are always unannounced and I never saw either unclean or with any signs of abuse or lack of care - my mother was incontinent and I never saw her soiled or their room unkempt. All of the other residents seem equally well cared for. 4-Stars because there is always room for improvement but I have no reservations about leaving my step-father in their care.

I have been to Summit View many times over the last few years visiting a resident there and I have never seen any of the things the other reviewers report. I have been very impressed with the staff, the activities, and the facilities. Go see for yourself.

This place is terrible! There's mold every where ceiling is falling in! If that's not enough there's cockroaches every where! Very nasty and trashy.The lady that gave us a tour was rude and very unprofessional!! The owners should be ashamed to call this place a business!! Please do not put any loved ones in here!! "This place definitely needs to be shut down"

Do not put your loved ones in this place. Roach bugs, black mold, general nasty. You pay for house cleaning. - but never happens. When going by sat down on couch roach ran across dress.. Roaches so bad even in freezer. In dining room anything you touch sticks to your hands never wipe down anything. I have never seen such a disgrace!! This place needs to be shut down

Have never been treated so poorly. Is this place seriously a business? They spoke to us as if we were speaking English for the first time. You know that voice where everything said is making you want to run the other way. During our tour there were noticeable live roach bugs as well as some in their artwork. The staff on the second floor where residents have help with daily activities seemed very over worked due to numerous residents in wheelchairs. [removed] Either way they don't have the proper equipment to aid these people and you can tell its overwhelming. You all need help on more then one level.

If you want a place for your loved one that drags them out of the bed at 5 am to get dressed for breakfast and sit in the hallway until 8 am when breakfast comes. That is if it isn't late because the chef is late every other day. If you want somewhere that your loved one is given medication and insulin injections by a staff member that is not certified in anyway except for a medical terminology course taught by the head nurse for 2 hours. If you want your loved one to be double diapered by the staff for their benefit. If you don't mind that your loved one is medicated at supper time and then one hour later they are given their night time medication. [removed]. [removed] 0 stars.
