Cornerstone Management

I am thankful I can call Grand Villa home. I have my own space in my apartment, and can do what I please, within reason. The staff is helpful and nice to be around. Some of the staff are exceptional to be around, they are so fun! Debbie and Michael and a few others make my day. I do like that Grand Villa is faith based.

I like Linda, our activity director. Whenever I need something to get done, she is the one that makes sure it gets done. She helps me all of the time. I love Celia, she is such a good lady to me. I love to work in our garden. I walk every day outside and like that I can leave. I love our Bronco parties!

At Grand Villa I feel safe, which is my biggest concern. We are really cared for here. The food is good and we have enough activities to keep us busy. I am looking forward to gardening this summer in our garden! I do love the freedom to come and go as I please. The place is kept clean and fresh. I feel like family here.

What a blessing to have my parents at this caring facility! The entire staff really cares about every person and treat them with respect and dignity. They plan interesting activities, fun and memorable events for the families to attend with their loved one, and provide continuous attention to their every need. The staff excel in their kindness and attention to detail no matter what position they hold in the facility.

Love this place

Very satisfied with the care that my family member receives. It is a small facility, so there is less confusion for those with memory issues and makes it easier for staff to know the people in their care. They are constantly trying to find ways of improving and are happy to have reasonable input.

Staff is very caring, professional, and responsive. Activities are varied and clearly scheduled. My mother never wants for assistance when she need it. She tells me frequently that she is so happy we helped her find Grand Villa. Meals, however, are not very interesting, and heavy on carbohydrates and starches. I would expect more appealing and nutritious meals for the price.

My parents are doing well since their move to this community. As far as I know everything is working out well, and they are in good hands. This community is working out well for my family, and I would recommend it.

My mom recently moved into this community. So far the experience has been going great. The staff know how to keep the facility clean. My mom has plenty of options to choose for her meals and it seems to think it tastes good.

Staff is friendly and respectful to the residents. Any concerns I have had were dealt with in a timely manner. Activities Director is wonderful! outside facility, the grounds are beautifully kept. Improvement in food could be made.

I placed my loved one here when his Alzheimer’s had progressed to the point that I could no longer safely care for him at home.He lived in the memory care unit for six months until his death. The proximity of the facility to my home far outweighed my concerns regarding the level of staffing and care. The caregivers and the staff were caring and kind, and truly care about the residents. Unfortunately, this is a small town in a remote area and it is hard to retain good staff. The facility simply doesn’t have enough people. Sometimes I felt that the caregivers were overwhelmed. The activity director is amazing, but she needs an assistant. It would be great if someone with a medical background were on staff as well. These are just my observations. If, heaven forbid, I had to do this all over again, I would still have placed my husband here.

The environment is very good. Director position has turned over(on third one), but fortunately they have all been good fits.

The facility was very accommodating on our moving schedule. They even allowed us to move somethings in before our move in date. The maintenance staff is really busy so it took some time to get some things done; they were done within a couple weeks. These issues did not prevent any safety or move in issues. They seem to be a little shorthanded on the weekends to get help quickly.

4.5 stars. The staff was awesome. My dad was there for a a month before he passed. It was a very rough road at the end. But the staff and the community were really helpful and compassionate. They understood the dementia was doing its thing.

We picked this community, because of the price, straight forward agreement- no extra fees, newness, and it was close to home/convenience. I would tell friends/family that I like that it's new and updated so my loved one doesn't feel like she got stuck in an "old folks home". The agreement/fees are better than most others and the basic staff is fun and friendly. Ownership, and management can improve by being more responsive.

Very informative tour the facility appears to be well maintained. I have a problem with he double occupancy of having to pass thru another residences space to ge to the back room. I am also looking at the Retreat facilities. Contacting Social /Services to begin the process for Medicaid supplement. Thanks for your time I will let you know my desires in a week or two.

If you are in need of 24/7 care for a loved one, you may want to check out Traditions of La Crescent. Our mother, who has Alzheimers is there and we find the staff at Traditions to be understanding and caring. Our mom is liking the meals and the many activities that they provide; such as coloring, doing her nails, exercising, playing games, etc.. They usually have musical groups come in; however, during the corona virus situation, that has been stopped for the time being. She has her own room which has her full size bed and two dressers, her rocking chair and two conversational chairs with plenty of room to spare. She also has her own bathroom. We are very pleased with their handling of circumstances during this difficult time of the corona virus. We can call there and they will take the phone to our mom or set up a face chat with her. Our thanks to all staff at Traditions for your kind and beautiful hearts.
