Bethesda Gardens Thornton
4.3

When my loved one was ill, the staff were very responsive to our phone calls and also offered supportive and medical care to them. The staff are very friendly and caring.

Atria Longmont
4.4

The staff members at Atria are very attentive and very good about being helpful for our loved one. They also do what they say and follow through with their promises. Also the apartments are very spacious and very suiting to our loved ones liking. As far as improvements the meals and dining experience could certainly use some working on. Given what our loved one says the food quality is not the best and there tends to be long service time.

My mother has been on the memory care side since June 2023 and I can't tell you how wonderful the staff and facility is. All the rooms are huge and unique to memory care, there are showers in the rooms. There are also kitchenettes with cabinets and a full-size fridge. I looked at five or six area memory care facilities and none of them had both options. The staff is incredibly caring and really and truly loves each of the residents.
