It has two room accommodations. Bedroom plus a small living space and kitchen. I have experience with only one. I do not know what others are like. Interview several and meet the people who will be working with the resident not just the staff.

September 14, 2023Thanks for your feedback. It is great to see that your loved one enjoys their apartment. Note that in addition to that one bedroom with kitchenette floor plan we also have other one bedroom, and several studio layouts, available in our Assisted Living neighborhood to meet a variety of resident needs and budgets.
Our family and loved one have had a disappointing experience with Summit Place of South Park. The management team could have done a better job in communicating with the family. The value for the money wasn't there for us either.

April 14, 2023Dominic, thanks so much for your kind words for our team. We are touched by your description of Summit Place as a wonderful, close knit community and we appreciate your warm recommendation.
What sticks out most to me about Summit Place of South Park would be how clean the facility is and the staff are all very friendly as well.

March 15, 2023Thanks for your kind words for our friendly team -- and the special shout out for the hard work our housekeeping and maintenance teams do to keep Summit Place looking beautiful.
I would recommend Summit Place to others for their loved ones. There is ability to have physical and occupational therapy come to see the residents on-site. This allows the resident to not have to leave the community. This has been a big plus for our loved one and family! This has assisted my loved one in get stronger. There are three meals a day and there are choices to choose from. It can feel frustrating for the residents as there is a delay in getting the meals. However, there have been some changes made, and my loved one hasn't been complaining about the meals since.

March 15, 2023Thanks for your recommendation and five-star review. It is wonderful to read that recent changes in our dining services are a hit with your loved one -- and we're glad to know that our on-site Ageility PT and OT teams have been such a big help.
The facilities are top notch. Turnover is tough in these places, no one can keep staff long term. When we got here there was a turnover with the executive director so that has taken some getting used to. There have been some growing pains They do have great communication, better than I had been used to over at our previous facility. I would recommend them to others looking, overall things are working out well. I love the staff. The marketing director [name removed] is fabulous and was very easy to work with and super helpful.

March 10, 2023Thanks for taking the time to share your experience at Summit Place. We're touched to read you love the team, and are glad to read that part of the reason for that is that their communication with you has been excellent. Thanks also for your special shout out for our marketing director and how helpful she had been to your family. We appreciate you working with us through those growing pains and are honored by your recommendation.
The community didn't have the grounds that my loved one wanted to be able to walk around outside the grounds.

February 23, 2023Ray, thank you for visiting us. Our Bridge to Rediscovery memory care neighborhood has a lovely secured patio area. We find that this intimate secluded area provides a beautiful outdoor space that is less overwhelming for our residents. We welcome you and your loved one to come back and spend some time enjoying this space, and we would be more than happy to put you in touch with some of our current families who can share their experiences about life at Summit Place with you. Please contact us if we can be of further assistance.
This is the 6th place my mom has been and it is by far the best. They have the best staff working there. They do struggle to hire just like everyone else, but when they do hire, the people are great and really care about the residents. Activities wise it is off the charts - they have so much going on and they are so organized with it all. We could not be happier and have no complaints. We would highly recommend South Park to others.

October 22, 2021Thanks for the compliment -- and for the 5-star review!
We toured Summit Place and it was a great tour and a nice facility, actually similar to the one we went with. I thought that for the price they were asking they would not be able to provide the level of care that we were wanting and the location was further.

We chose Summit Place at the time because they were ready to go, they had a doctor and all resources in place to get it all done quickly. It also seemed like an organized place where my mom would do well. I would recommend to others looking.

February 5, 2021We're glad to hear we were able to line things up for you and move your mom into our community quickly. Thanks for the kind words about that experience and for your recommendation.
The few times I had concerns, they were addressed immediately. It was a good community for my mother, but the more medical needs she had, it became more difficult for the staff to care for her. The meals were great, and the food was well prepared. It looked pleasing. The staff in the dining room knew the residents, and catered to their needs.

I was very impressed touring this community- the staff were very attentive to the seniors and they were still doing activities during the day. The nursing staff was caring and helpful and the building very clean. While I was there two men were spraying down the railings with cleaners using a cleaning gun. I felt save during Covid with this place.

At first we were pleased with Summit Place of Southpark, but as time went on we were not pleased. We had some issues such as medication not given properly on several occasions or medication mix ups. It did not seem like they were monitoring it close enough. When we went to pick up my mothers things, they had sat them outside the facility. Her stuff was waded up and thrown in open boxes and there were also belongings of hers that were missing. 6 weeks after she passed, we found out the facility had not given my mother the cards that people were sending to her. I would not recommend Summit Place.

I was able to take a tour and i was not impressed with this place at all. The some of the staff was helpful, but the community felt like an institution. Not somewhere I would send my loved one. It just is not very homey at all.We have walked the halls looking for around and it's like a too. I went in middle of the week and a lot of staff was very loud in front of the residents waiting in the front hall for lunch. Summit Place had a bad smell. It reminded me of a used baby diaper smell. I also saw a lot of ants and small tiny flies in the dining room and hallway. This community looked dirty and drab. This place is defiantly not for my parents!

Not a place for my mom. Trash overflowing, receptionist unresponsive and unwilling to help elderly lady looking to have her fingernails trimmed. Residents asleep in hallways and reception area. Very sad environment and quite disappointing.

June 28, 2018At Summit Place of South Park it is our intent to exceed the expectations of our residents, families and visitors.

I would like to invite you back for a another visit, and would like to put you in touch with some of our current families who can speak about their loved one's time at Summit Place. Please contact me directly if you would like to take another tour or if we can be of any help in your search for senior living options for your mom.
Location is always good and the facility is nice. But at 10am, the more I walked down the hall way, the more intense the aroma became. I had checked out this location 2 years ago; with most wheel chair residents just locked down in the hallway, but as a functional father - I don't think this is the place.

I toured Summit Place on behalf of my father. Generally, I liked it. I really liked [Removed], the woman who showed us around. She seemed very caring. She was constantly engaging with staff and residents throughout the tour, and was really knowledgeable. If there was anyone who had a need, she made sure to make others aware so the problem could be solved. I thought that the rooms were fine, the facility was lovely, and I liked that they had large windows to let in lots of light. However, the only room that was available for us at the time was a double room in memory care, and I just wasn’t sure dad was ready for that yet.

We toured this community. We liked that they had more care takers which we liked. The director was very helpful. They do have good activities. We did not want a shared room. We would recommend this community for good care. The meals are appealing. I like knowing that the staff cares about my father. I would recommend this community for other families.
