Bethesda Senior Living Communities

The hands-on staff are great, Mom loves them. Communication is poor. The meals are tasty and plentiful, but they do not accommodate special diets and Mom is diabetic. Move in process so-so - had to ask several times before we could get help with tv hookup and picture hanging. The apartment itself is lovely but bathroom and kitchenette are in need of updating. The shower does not have a safety bench built in, we purchased a separate shower chair. Laundry is done every week with no problem. Housekeeping in the apartment could be better - they vacuum and empty the trash, wipe down the bathroom, but her bathroom lightbulb went out and I had to call the desk twice to get it changed. I would still recommend them - I have seen a lot worse - but there is room for improvement.

Overall not bad. But i am a little disappointed. With physical therapy we had to request 4 or 5 times to get it started. Only 2 weeks did they start and still no schedule of upcoming therapy as requested

My loved one is currently a resident at Bethesda Gardens Arlington. Overall, most everything has been good for her at this facility so far. The staff are very friendly and responsive, though they are a little over worked and understaffed. The staff is also compassionate and caring, I just wish there were more of them. The meals are very very basic, not well balanced, and really need nutritional guidance. They contain way way too many carbs. The food looks like high school cafeteria food from the 1970s.

What we like the most about the Bethesda Gardens is the people. The people that are working there take good care of my mom and get her involved in all the different activities they offer. Based on the experience we have had so far, we would absolutely recommend this community to other families who are looking for a place for their loved ones.

My loved one is currently a resident at Bethesda Gardens Arlington and overall it has been a very good experience. The staff have long tenures and seem happy with their employment. They have all been pleasant to my mom. They are responsive to all of our questions and calls. We have only had one poor experience so far and it was remedied once escalated. The meals are generally tasty and nutritious, but there are no significant options to the main offering. I would recommend Bethesda Gardens Arlington to others.

We toured Bethesda Gardens Fort Worth during our search for Assisted Living for our loved one. This facility was clean and everyone was friendly. However, the facility atmosphere seemed kind of clinical. Our tour was thorough and we were given materials with helpful information. They also answered all of our questions.

I feel there is not enough staff to monitor people as needed, example- my moms remote for her tv keeps getting lost and we have her name on it, staff cannot find, I know that can be challenging but would think staff goes in rooms often and could keep looking but do not believe they do. Also, several times when visited floors and tables in dining area dirty, I just think they need more staff.

The staff are always very friendly and committed. The building is very clean and well maintained. Price seems good compared to other's. The only concern would be that it appears they sometimes entrust mom to take her medications and the doctor does not provide details about her care. Such as no access to results of bloodwork, etc.

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.

Overall it's very nice, clean and well run. I think that there have been a few incidents that staff don't communicate and my mom was confused by staff coming into her unit for services not needed. But overall very recommended

This is a good community. I would recommend to make sure you tour the dining room. The food was delivered on paper plates, and they were delivered on time. The community could use some additional staff dining room. Autumn View Gardens was always clean when I visited. The grounds are well kept.

We do think the staff team really do try their best but we have had a couple issues here and there - for instance it takes a lot of different steps to get things done. Our loved one has not fully participated in the activities but from what we have seen they seem fine. The value is reasonable and we would recommend this community to other families.

Good community. It was too far from family.

The community had made promises and we haven't seen a lot of delivery of these promises. There is one staff member who responds immediately to the family's questions via text or calls and will even give us suggestions. Then other staff that won't respond to the family to assist us or our loved one with questions or concerns.

Mom really likes it there. A good thing about it that others might like as well is it's small. There are no elevators and no stairs. It's built in a square, so if she leaves her room and keeps going, eventually she'll end up back at her room, which is perfect for her because she likes to walk around but does get lost. So it's perfect for someone like that. All of the caretakers are very good to her. It's one of the more reasonably priced places we looked into. The food could be improved a little. But I like that the residents get a choice if they don't like what's on the main menu - they can always ask for something else, and the staff do a good job of accommodating requests. The dining staff themselves do a good job, it's just that the food could be better. But overall, I think we made a very good choice.

They do their best with what they have. Somedays the food is good, and sometimes it's not. The breakfast is good. The value for the money is pretty good. I picked this community, because It's close to my home.

So far, we're happy with Collinwood Assisted Living and Memory Care.

My mom is doing just great here; she seems to be enjoying it, considering it's assisted living and not her home. They seem very nice and so far I have no huge complaints. It's a laid-back, casual atmosphere. It's not regimented and I think that's good. There aren't a lot of rules, it's quiet, and it's good for my mom.

The best thing is they are friendly. I picked this place because of the location and they seemed to be good when we met. Also, the price was good, and I was happy about that.

Lovely community very well kept and seemed to have very friendly and caring staff.
