Heritage Lake Country

Heritage Lake Country has been GREAT! The facility itself is beautiful and well maintained. The staff all address my Mother by name, as well as asking her about events that she's involved in. She enjoys the activities that are offered. I routinely receive updates from Heritage related to events and facility updates. Available medical care and monitoring has been excellent.

Overall it has been a good experience and my mom seems happy there. However, there's one lady at the front desk that is always very rude to me and many times I have sent emails to the staff trying to get an update on my mom's condition and they typically never get back to me so the communication piece is not great.

I feel there is a lot of inconsistency, and it's sometimes difficult to get matters addressed. The activities director has done a lovely job of getting my mom to participate and be involved. Getting someone to clean a bathroom can be impossible, and getting someone to fix something broken in a room can be impossible as well.

I would say my mom seems very happy there. We picked it because of location and the facility was nice.

What we really like about Heritage Lake Country is our loved one's room- it is quite spacious and comfortable. The administration is usually very responsive. It's not easy to contact the different departments by phone. However, improvement in communication between families could be better.

The community made my loved one feel safe, and this was the most important to us. The staff has also been helpful. We feel that everything is going well, and there is no improvements needed at this time.

This facility is awesome, don’t look anywhere else! The absolutely care, have staff that cares, nice activities,. They do what you expect and more! Great job team

This place is amazing

Felt like a big hotel and not as friendly environment. Best room with a separate bedroom, large living room and kitchen space but they would be on the 2nd floor without views of green space and didn’t like the feel of hallway and elevator outside their room.

It has been a terrible experience for us. The main point is the community didn't assess my loved one correctly. They wouldn't take the long term insurance and they wouldn't take any claims because the community put her in independent living. My loved one never left their room. The staff seemed annoyed by the call button requests There is a lot of turnover. It is a new build for the community.

I would want others to know when looking into Heritage Lake Country to not move your loved one in here at this time. They have a high turn over in staff, including the executive director. They had 2 changes this past year. Some of the CNAS were wonderful, some were horrible. There were a lot of problems with getting paperwork sorted out, they lost my moms paperwork for weeks. They were also out of a lot of over the counter medication, so my mom would be out of stuff for days. I am hoping the new director can turn it around, but we are not waiting around.

It is a good place. I have felt comfortable having my mom there. Just like with all places there are good and bad. Some of the staff is not completely trustworthy. The food leaves some thing to be desired. They repeated the same dishes, Layout was great.

My mom has been here for a while now and, while initially there was a lot of staff turnover and some deficiencies, things seemed to have settled down since the current Executive Director, [name removed] arrived. The facility itself is beautiful. We attributed some of the initial problems to the fact that the facility was new so we stuck with it and we are now fairly satisfied.

Do not go here or send your loved ones!! Dad was here less than 2 months. Short staffed, staff that doesn't care, upper staff does not reply to emails, they do not follow through on what they promise for care. Nice facility, but care sucks!!

The facility is new so very lovely. The food is adequate. With so many different diets and health issues to consider I am aware that meals can't be restaurant taste. I am disappoint in the lack of knowledgeable care in the assisted living area. My friend has lived there for nine months and there is only one person including administration that I know of who is still working there. The turnover is frequent although that maybe typical of assisted and nursing care jobs. My friend was just moved to the memory care unit so maybe there is better healthcare there.

There was a very strong smell of sewer gas (no doubt a dry trap/drain) in the model room they were showing us. Then the tour person also commented that sometimes that same smell was in the dining room below. I told her that we could fix it because that was a dry trap/drain and we ran water down all of the sinks and shower in that room. Voila—problem solved. And decent maintenance person should have figured that out. Obviously we got off on the wrong foot. The tour guide seemed nervous and ill prepared
