Beautiful facility

Silver Glen is a beautiful facility with a lot of amenities. The facility is equipped to only have a one person care. So if your loved one needs more than one person to help them get up or walk or bathe then this is not the facility for them. The staff is very caring and it is very clean and lovely.... Read more

Review for Silver Glen Senior Living

It was a nice and newer facility. The apartments were smaller. They did not offer too many activities. It felt sterile and cold, and was not really a good fit for my loved one.

Dear Anonymous, we appreciate all feedback because it provides us an opportunity to review our processes and make changes where opportunity exists. We do recognize that personal taste comes into play when talking about food, but we do challenge your comments about quality of food, variety, and the allegation of high sodium content. Our residents have consistently given rave reviews of our restaurant menu, both variety of options and the high quality of their meals. Additionally, every menu item has been reviewed by a registered dietitian in our test kitchen to ensure they meet nutritional standards. We would encourage you to connect with the community Executive Director if you have questions or concerns regarding your dining experience. If you would like more information about our menus, please visit the community website where you can find a copy of the restaurant menu and access a video about how our menus are developed.

Tour experience

We really liked Silver Glen, it is actually the sister facility to the place that we chose for our loved one. At Silver Glen the rooms are bigger and the facility itself is only about a year old so it is newer and updated. The only reason we did not choose them was due to the locaiton. The other facility was closer to us and to my loved ones doctors.

Overall it was a positive experience. I wish they did a little bit more getting people into the mainstream. It's a huge change for older people to move to senior living. And I think they need people to reach out more to get newer residents to meals and activities. It can be really intimidating to walk into a big room of people on your own. But it's a beautiful facility. Mom's apartment is very nice and a good for seniors. She has a washer/dryer and everything there that she needs, which is great. The amenities are really nice. They seem to have a good variety of activities, and the activity room is really nice. I think it's a little costly but reasonable for the area.

I have told friends and family about Silver Glen Senior Living. It's a wonderful place to live at. We have family that go and visit are just amazed at what is offered. They do offer an array of activities. They even have a movie theater and it's nice to see the residents in there enjoying a movie. The menu offers lots of options that are wonderful. The staff is nice and welcoming.

Lovely, but awful food.

I have a loved one here. The place is beautiful, although, they never seem to light the fireplaces, so a lot of it is for show, but lovely, caring employees. Main complaint is that although breakfast is fine, most of the residents find lunch and dinner nearly inedible. Most of it is children's food. Fried (from frozen) chicken nuggets, hot dogs, grilled cheese sandwiches. There is some minor attempt at making an actual meal, but while I was visiting the chicken parm had no cheese on it and a teaspoon of sauce. The spaghetti had no sauce, whatsoever. I watched at least ten residences eat three bites and push it aside. Chef on the premises? How is that possible? These seniors worked hard their entire lives and saved all their money to eat, what seems like movie theater hot dogs. Please do something about this. They are not thriving. Several have confided.

upscale and priced right

Upscale environment so no one feels like they are "away at a senior center". Very friendly staff always greeting residents by name. So convenient to have a beautiful theatre, exercise room and arts and crafts rooms. Activities are getting better all the time with lectures, music, crafts, even foreign language lessons! A great place for independent living, assisted living, or something in between. I am very pleased with the level of care and attention for my mother relieving me from any guilt about not being with her every day.

My review of Silver Glen Senior Living NOW OPEN (Spectrum Retirement)

Our family had an in person tour and the community is beautiful, it looks like a resort. With it being big and flashy we did not think our mother would really fit in and use all their amenities they offered. However, it is beautiful and they have a nice movie theater.

Convenient For Us

It is a brand new community. They make a big deal to make sure the staff call the resident's by their name. They have a lot of activities available for the residents to choose from. It is a very nice community and friendly. The place is well thought-out for seniors. Most of the apartments are around 600 square feet with 12 foot ceilings.
