I have heard that this is a great place for my mom. So, I researched and researched for places and always came back to the Alois. They seem to be most qualified and ideal. Highly recommend this place to friends and family.
I would recommend this community for your loved one. The staff have been excellent so far. They have activities like bingo, cards, a concert for the residents and more to keep the residents busy in the community.
What I would say about ARDEN CT Anderson is that the key full-time people are fabulous and the ongoing activities are what is keeping my Mom there. They have wonderful intentions but are understaffed. All the residents are memory care and the setup is wonderful for them. Some of the agency people seem to care but still seems to be a breakdown of communication sometimes and sometimes the agency people are not as motivated or as engaged with the residents to ensure ALL THE NEEDS ARE MET. FOR EXAMPLE: Most residents need help toileting and eating. There are not enough checks for those things. The full-time people and trainers are spread thin.. WONDERFUL PEOPLE it is CLEAN, secure and well maintained for residents not for visitors which is best.
