The only improvement that I can think of that needs to be made at Sycamore Hills By the Bay is there is not enough parking. That is my only complaint about this facility. Everyone is very nice, the facility is really clean. I am really happy with my experience here so far.
It's been great for my mom. I was very impressed. The apartment is very nice. I can't tell u how friendly and helpful everyone has been. My mom is doing very well. She is participating in the activities. Eric has been very helpful with my mom. He's been very good. The only downside is the kitchen area. The cabinets are way too high. My mom would have to get on a step stool to use them. The microwave is high as well. Everything else has been great.
I rate them a five on everything except friendliness. On that they get a ten!!!!! My loved one's circumstances were such she was there a little more than two months. It was an interim stop between acute care and home. They knew that. She was sort of a grump, but everyone treated her well--staff and residents. I am grateful to The Broadmoor for my loved one's positive experience.
