The Ackerly at Sherwood

I moved my mom into the Ackerly and the experience was very positive. [name removed] was the salesperson who we worked with and he was professional, personable, knowledgeable and caring. He provided valuable guidance whether the topic was room type and availability, cost planning, move-in logistics, onsite services and activities, or facility attributes. He even had insight into the social life at The Ackerly. And he did it all with a pleasant manner. He helped make my mom feel welcome and he was very responsive and a good resource even after the move-in. He obviously cares about people and likes doing his job. I highly recommend him.

My grandmother has lived here for four years and transitioned into their memory care unit two years ago. My dad moved in for 6 months to recuperate from a bad fall. In both experiences, the staff has made all the difference in the world. The Med techs are amazing and patient. The staff really cares about the residents.

7 months ago, The Ackerly @ Sherwood and Staff worked with our family to move my sister into an apartment in assisted care. They made sure everything went smoothly, in a timely fashion, on very short notice. I will always be thankful for their desire to "get things done" !!! I appreciate the willingness of staff to address any and all issues that may arise...they are very approachable. Thank You and Wishing All a Blessed New Year

My wife and I came to the Ackerly when an unexpected illness required assisted living. With excellent food, a restful environment, and a friendly and welcoming staff, we recovered, and were able to return home. The Ackerly is a valuable community resource, and we recommend it heartily to anyone needing assisted living.

I was fortunate enough to have toured this community recently and have to say that it is absolutely one of the nicest senior living communities I have seen. The building was clean, well maintained, staff were friendly and the memory care was odor free.

I found THE place! The open floor plan allows for bright, cheery and inviting community. The bistro is alive with activities. And there is a happy hour every Friday afternoon with live music and fantastic snacks. The apartments are spacious for my needs and the food is a cut above, an everyday menu with specials at every meal that give a variety of different cuisines mixed with the comfort food I grew up with. Everyone I came in contact with were so pleasant.

We were shopping for our parents. We called and set up an appointment and when we arrived we were met by a wonderful representative of the company. He was so helpful. He answered all our questions and even helped us with infomation we hadn't thought about. He made us feel comfortable and when we brought our parents back, they felt the same thing. Everyone (including the people who lived there) was so nice. The time we spent here was well spent and I recommend you check out the Sherwood Ackerly too. What we saw and learned from our representative made the ultimate choice to move our parents there, over the other locations we viewed, very easy. There's a real difference if you know what to look for. Our parents have been happy with the Ackerly, so we've felt we did them a real service by locating them there. By the way, they were hesitant at first to move out of their home, but they have said to us "Why did we wait". Their words spoke volumes and that is why I'm leaving this review.

The Ackerly at Sherwood is a fantastic option for for anyone considering senior living for themselves or their loved ones. The building is clean & well maintained, but more importantly the staff makes me feel special every time that I walk in to visit my loved one. I am always impressed with the quality of food and the events/activities that the community offers to the residents on a daily basis. The Primefit Personal Trainer that is part of their staff has been instrumental in helping my Dad improve his balance and overall fitness level. He looks forward to the daily classes that are offered for free as part of his rent. Additionally, the management team has always been receptive and quick to respond to any feedback that me or my siblings have provided to them. Overall, I highly recommend The Ackerly at Sherwood!

Everything here has met or exceeded our expectations. The onboarding staff were both fantastic! The level of care and information from them was absolutely fantastic and they worked very hard to get mom here first and then harder for dad. It was important for us to have them in the same place and they made it happen. The facility does seem to be understaffed, but I'm sure that's all facilities right now. The high turnover just makes things more challenging for care and communication. But their effort to stay on top of things while dealing with the staffing issues is great. It's a clean and well maintained facility. Communication with the family is very good. The food is good, good quality and good variety. They have a main dining room and a bistro, so that adds variety with both food and seating area options. Housekeeping does a great job. They offer a wide variety of regular activities and also do outings. On Friday's they do theme days. They really do try to engage the residents and help keep them involved. I would recommend them to family and friends.

There is only one nurse and med tech for the entire community. The RN on staff is usually in their office during the time I visit my loved one. It is a nice place, but if you have someone that has medical needs, I struggle to see how that would be managed by the community. If your loved one would need medical assistance the family will need to pay for an agency to come in for your loved one. The community works hard at the activities with the residents, and this is great for my loved one. The community will do light housekeeping and laundry for the residents. The building is beautiful.

Our loved one really seems to be enjoying the meals and dining service, and they have a ton of activities for the residents. The value for cost compared to other communities in the area is really good.

I would recommend you lookat the community. Compared to other communities they do better than other places. The food is pretty good. The communication has been fine with the staff. The room is very nice for my loved one. It is a nice community that is well maintained.

The community is open, airy, and bright. Everyone there is very friendly. The atmosphere of the community is very positive. I would recommend this community to others
