Artis Senior Living

The facility is nicely laid out. Residents have plenty of opportunities to change their environment if they want without getting lost. All the management staff know all the residents by name and assist with anything that is needed. I like that they are hands on and not isolated in their offices. All the residents appear appropriately dressed and groomed. There are activities for residents all day but they are allowed to opt out if they aren't interested. It was critical for me that there was a range of residents from pretty high functioning to not. I ruled out many other places that were geared more to lower functioning individuals because my person needed to be around people who could walk and talk reasonably well at her time of admission. I'm a little disappointed in the responsiveness of staff to address issues that are not immediately critical. I hope this improves.

The only issue I had with them was that when my mom was first placed there, she was definitely having cognitive issues. While she was there, she improved and then felt isolated because she really didn't have anyone she could talk with. Overall due to our experience though I would recommend Artis Senior Living of West Shore to others looking.

We toured Artis Senior Living of West Shore when searching for a facility for our loved one. Our tour was given when activities were in progress. The facility was very clean and we were provided with a lot of information. They were very helpful.

Great philosophy about the care of dementia residents. Caring staff that is attentive and responsive. We picked this community, because of the location, activities and outdoor environment. The ability to walk around inside the building and gain the freedom of movement. Artis Specialized with dementia residents.If I had to make the choice again I would still select Artis. The only negative was that the building and interior showed its age.

The Director of the Artis Way/Case Manager, [name removed], plays a pivotal role in overseeing the wellbeing of the resident and their family by ensuring the care partners and staff understand an individual's needs. She "sets a resident up for success" and really pays attention to details about likes, dislikes, and family connection as well. My mom was declining, and they surprised ME with a birthday party so that my mom could be present. It meant everything. That being said, it takes a village, and being present and visible as a loved one is always beneficial in making sure needs are met by the staff.

The value or cost is way to expensive, but what we like most about the Artis Senior Living is the amount of staff to seniors residents living there. Based on the experience we have had so far, we would definitely recommend this community to other families.

We picked this community, because the location is close to me. I'm mad that the rent goes up every 5-6 months. Family should be careful because they raised the prices almost immediately after my loved one moved in with 30 day notice.

We picked this community, because my dad had a fall and went to the hospital and then to rehab. Over 30 days his dementia worsened and he needed a memory care facility as soon as possible before being released. They were available, very quick to evaluate and accept him. They were also very caring throughout the process. I would recommend it.

Since my dad moved in this past February, I have been Impressed with Artis Senior Living of Somers (which is impeccably maintained) and the staff. My dad comments every time I speak to him that the staff could not be nicer or more helpful. I am very comfortable with our choice and would definitely recommend Artis to someone looking for Senior Memory Care in a warm, welcoming atmosphere.

It is a good fit for my loved one. It is a dedicated memory care facility. It has 4 communities, each with 16 rooms, their own dining room and screened in porch. So a fairly large facility but a hometown feel. They have a beautiful outdoor courtyard, tables and walk ways. Overall, we are grateful knowing that safety and health are monitored, and that music, art, books, and socialization is provided daily.

My loved one is a resident at Artis Senior Living of Woodbury. I really haven't spoken to anyone but the managers, but they have been very nice. My loved one says that the meals and dining is fine. My loved one chooses not to participate in the activities, but it looks like they have lots of options. I think the value for the money is very good.

All of the people that I met who conducted the tours were most pleasant, eager to answer questions and gave freely of their time. The facility itself is very modern and attractive. I thought it a little too big but was otherwise pleased.

It was a really good tour experience. it was a further dustance but it looked like a great community.

We chose Artis Senior Living of Woodbury because they were able to take care of his needs and at the time they had a LPN on staff 24/7. That was something that most other places did not have. All of the staff have been very friendly and they do well interacting with the residents and encourage them. The residents do seem to be happy as well. We are pleased with the experience so far and would recommend them.

Based off of what we saw I think Artis could have been a good fit for my loved one. I just know she would not have come out of her room to do the activities or anything and the room sizes here were very small. You could only fit a bed and dresser and that is where she spends most of her time.

All of the staff members seem to know all of the residents by name so they are very familiar with them. The residents have quite a bi of freedom to roam the facility without being monitored constantly, however they do check-ins every hour to make sure no one needs assistance or help them if they do. There are quite a lot of activities to keep the residents occupied. Artis Senior Living has been a really comfortable community for our loved one so far.

I toured this community and it was nice.

Our family had an in person tour and we almost went there, VERY nice people and staff. If we had to move our loved one that's where we would go. However we just were not all that thrilled with the 2 floor memory care unit.

The staff members were very kind and very helpful and the meals were good. However we had some communication issues when it came to the care services - when our loved one needed assistance we never had anyone to get ahold of.

We toured this community. It wasn't as new and didn't offer as many activities as some of the other places. We decided it didn't meet mom's needs and to go with a different facility.
