Orchard Heights

My mom was very skeptical at first because she was used to living at home or with family. But now she loves it. She has met some wonderful people. She has friends, She’s involved with lots of activities. She is always busy. They have free ice cream cones, free bakery items, and they have wonderful food. We are so happy we found Orchard Heights. .

Staff are attentive, the food is good, many scheduled activities, transportation to medical appointments and shopping several times per week. They have various sizes of apartments to choose from based off of your needs/wants. Overall it has been a great fit for my mom.

My loved one is currently a resident at Orchard Heights and overall the experience has been good so far. I would recommend the facility to others, but perhaps the facility could provide a suggestion box so that the residents could put their views in privately.

Although my client, [name removed] moved to Minnesota, Orchard Heights, without a doubt, scores a 5 on each of the 7 questions. If I didn't have a home, that's where I'd live. [name removed] moved to be near her family, but misses those friends and staff she enjoyed in her 10 months there!

I would, and do, say that I feel respected and cared for and still have the freeedom to come and go at will. Better resident participation in maanagement-resident meetings and outings might help avoid disinformatior confusion.

The place is clean. Staff is friendly and competent. Meal portions are sufficient and nutritious. Nice variety of different room sizes. Fairly priced. They are in the process of interviewing for an activity director, as the former one resigned. The assistant managers and volunteers have been filling in when they are able and are doing the best they can in the meantime.

So far with Orchard Heights It's been a wonderful experience for [name removed] and me as her former caregiver, now friend. We really like the restaurant style dining with fine vittles helps encourage socializing!

Residents and staff were all friendly towards Mom. My husband and I lunched at orchard heights and was quite impressed with options available. I would like to reference an instance where [name removed] and [name removed] went above and beyond. My mom has lost 85pct of her hearing and as such cannot hear if someone is at her door. They installed a device in her room that flashes a light if her doorbell is rung. It was at that point I was totally at peace with mom living at Orchard Heights. Their generosity and patience is totally appreciated. Activities...very entertaining and festive. Fashion shows, there's a movie theatre, celebrate local holidays with decorations and activities. Totally worth the money. Hubby and I have talked about us becoming residents when the time is right.

Having the managers on site makes a big difference. Knowing that someone is there at all times and living in the facility helps to build that relationship with the families and the residents. I do think it would be nice if they could bring more live music and entertainment in for the residents. The food here is top notch. They are chef prepared meals and amazing quality. The value for the money is great especially for all that is offered. I would definitely recommend Orchard Heights to others. It is a very friendly place and they treat you like family.

It's a friendly and very clean place. My loved one, loves it there. We picked this community because, it's independent living facility and that is all my loved one needed. She does NOT need assisted living. She can do everything for herself and they provide 3 meals a day.

They ought to keep up with the bathroom and shower by the pool area - it definitely needs to be cleaned more. Overall I would recommend Orchard Heights.

I have talked to visitors during tours about how excellent it is to live here. I understand the corporate side may be interested in making money as far as the business aspect of it goes but the community here is great. The staff is incredibly helpful, kind and thoughtful. Meals times offer an alternate meal or deli sandwich if you don't care for the main option. The dining experience is not assigned seating but 4 chairs to a table. The community encourages social interaction during meal times.

There have been a couple of issues with the elevators, and they have raised the rent each year. I would recommend this community to others

I think it is a nice place, a little expensive. They were are top choice. The food quality went down. It was well prepared but toward the end of her stay the quality of the food was not as good. Room sizes were excellent. They have well organized outdoor space.

It is a very excellent option for someone who doesn't need assistance. My mom is happy with the meals, portions seem good and they have multiple menu choices available . Rooms are average size. They have 2 floors which makes it easy. They have a nice outside area to walk and a nice pool. There are a lot of activities.

This was my favorite, Independent living, but medical staff visits, all dining included, Breakfast Dinner and Supper and it smelled delightful. Lots of friendly happy faces, beautiful facility with all the amenities, library, events coordinator schedules trips and daily activities.

Very nice. Managers very hands on. People were nice. Mom just doesn't know what she wants to do, but now she has more information. Thank you for setting up the tour.

Loved this one.
