Talamore Woodbury

It is a very nice, clean, modern facility. The staff have been very accommodating. We appreciate all the activities you can attend if wanted. We don't worry about our loved one when we are not there.

Mom loved her time at Talamore of Woodbury. It felt like a SPA and Mom loved all of the fun activities. From traveling zoo to happy hour, she loved all of the variety. Excellent restaurant quality food, loved the atmosphere. Just a superb experience. When Mom passed, the staff’s compassion was overwhelming. It brings our family such joy knowing that Mom had such good care.

It's clean and the people are friendly. My mom thinks the food is just okay. Sometimes getting help with things like mounting the TV or getting the tv set up with the direct TV takes up to a week. I would recommend them to others. My mom is having some trouble settling in and making it feel like home, but I think that's more my mom than the facility.

The staff at Talamore are very nice, helpful, friendly and approachable. They go out of their way for us to have a pleasant experience. My loved one has 19 meals included in her rent and she has liked everything she has tried, especially the build your own omelet and the fish. The building is very clean and my mom enjoys going down for coffee every morning. Move in process went smoothly and the maintenance manager was very accommodating to our needs. Making friends is easy in the communal areas and during the many activities that are provided. We would definitely recommend The Talamore Woodbury for all of the above reasons!

Beautiful new facility, fully staffed by kind, capable professionals. Responsive admin. Also chosen because of memory care bed availability.

I think the staff is great and it's a beautiful clean facility! Because they just opened in March they have a few things to tweak and figure out but seem to be working on them.

If you went by looks of the place alone, you would think it would be the best, because it's beautiful and clean and the salespeople and director are really good at selling the place. If you are needing a higher level of care, there are only a few staff members that seem skilled and trained enough to care for that level. Generally speaking, the staff are good and kind, but there are a few that are condescending and seem to avoid working with the residents, which ruins the positivity of the other aspects. They are understaffed like almost all places and many of the good staff are overworked and work doubles and you can tell are getting burnt out. I would train the staff better in transferring patients that need a 1-2 person transfer. Having lessons from a PT would be helpful (I had one lesson and had the PT giving me pointers a couple of times and I can easily transfer my loved one by myself and I'm a little person). The cleaning is good, they come once a week, but I wish they would avoid the heavily scented cleaners and use something that is more natural and not as potent. The move in process was easy and there is a back entrance and elevator and they have carts available. The meals are good and they have plenty of options. Generally speaking, yes, I would recommend the facility to others.

Staff are super kind, helpful, and pleasant . The facilities are new, clean and bright/cheerful. It's a place you like to be in. Generous size apartments. Very comfortable.

My loved ones are residents at Talamore Woodbury. The staff respond quickly and are very nice. The housekeeping is good. We have had some issues with a few communication items, for example, trying to get their cable hooked up was an ordeal. The move in process was good; they have a special area with carts and also double doors, so it worked well. It is pricey, but I would recommend Talamore Woodbury to others.

It’s been about two months now since my dad moved into Talamore and it’s been nothing short of a blessing. My sisters and I all agree that he’s not the same man we’ve gotten used to knowing the last few years— he’s a better version. A healthy and happier version. A year ago I would’ve never thought that my dad would be the one going down to exercise or participating in resident council. My recent visits lately consists of him telling me what exciting activity he did the day before and what new friend/neighbor he’s met. I owe it all to the staff for their continuous compassion and ability to encourage individuals like my dad to break out of their shell.

My family needed to move my grandmother into memory care quickly after some health concerns. Talamore Woodbury was warm and welcoming from the moment we entered the building. The care team works so hard to make my grandmother feel special and cared for. There are always activities going on to keep her active. Definitely no regrets with Talamore!

When I walked into the new Talamore building in Woodbury, I was immediately greeted and welcomed by a friendly face. I toured and it is so impressive and beautiful! As a nurse, I also asked a lot of questions about the quality of care my mom would receive if she moved here. I had all my questions answered and felt like I mattered. I met the Director of Nursing and the Executive Director during my tour as well. I observed the current activities going on all around me. Having previous experience in assisted living, I was very impressed by what I saw. We decided to have my mom move to Talamore sooner rather than later so we could have more choice of rooms. I would recommend touring Talamore so you can see what it's all about. You won't regret it!

The team at Talamore is so welcoming! From meeting [name removed] for a tour, speaking with the nurse to discuss cares for my mother, then going over the lease with [name removed], both my mother and myself felt so cared for and respected. I highly recommend this facility.

I was wowed by the overall class and beauty of Talamore. The staff was super friendly and inviting. The apartments are beautiful. I never thought "senior living" would look like this! I encourage anyone even thinking about moving, to check this place out!

There was definitely some miscommunication between the hospice company and the facility. The facility wasn't as responsive to my sister as they should have been. It's a beautiful new facility which is great for assisted living, but I wouldn't recommend their enhanced care to others. I wish we would have taken my sister to an actual hospice facility instead.

Communication on things like laundry pick up and delivery times, daily check in, too random, reminder knocks and even opening the door to announce meal times. Had to be addressed. The community is very new and clean. New facilities have a lot of 'bugs' to work out. They are addressing them promptly when made aware. Thermostat malfunctioning and they replaced it right away! The staff are so friendly and greet us in the halls, etc. The care services will improve as staff is there longer, they just opened 2 months ago. Still getting a feel for it all, residents and staff. The meals are very good. Learned quickly that half portions are best! Seem willing to work with dietary preferences. The activities are much more sparse than we thought. Chair exercises, a movie, occasional outings, happy hour or grill out is good. I think our expectations were not realistic in this area. Thinking there would be more organized small group things for people with more memory issues and wanting to stay connected in simple activities. Maybe they have to live in the memory care section for these types of activities. They seem more geared to fully cognitive people. The value for cost is a lot of $ of course, but the whole industry is heartbreaking for our seniors to afford. It's reassuring to know that help is there if needed though!

Talamore met some specific needs that we could not find elsewhere. Foremost, commitment to keeping my parents together, despite their conditions being different. Caring, responsiveness, compassionate and understanding staff.

Very well, and the employees are wonderful. No complaints.

I was worried about my friend adjsuting to the new community and making friends. When I visit, I always find her with a group of ladies doing fun stuff. I am now thinking about moving in.

Having lived at 3 Senior Living properties in the twin cities area, I speak from experience. Talamore is superior in every respect.
