Cedarhurst Living LLC

My mom is very happy here, she has received excellent care, she has enjoyed the many activities, all of the staff have been very friendly and very helpful in caring for her, her family is very pleased with all things here at the facility

my dad is a resident here and we all love this place and all the staff is fantastic.

York House welcomes all new residents with open arms. My husband's mother planned on coming here well before she actually became a resident. This was her choice and she has never regretted her decision. She was welcomed in by the activity director, [name removed], who made certain she was invited and included in all the activities. [Name removed] and I enjoy the family nights that are planned and the food they serve is always tasty. For the residents that are mobile they offer shopping days, restaurant outings, and always provide something for everyone to do. We are well pleased with the nursing staff and all other staff that care for my mom-in-law.

My mom moved here from West Virginia. The care is excellent and the food is very good. The activities are fantastic and they always try to get her to participate. The dinners are nice - familiy nights are wonderful. Family nights are once a month and they feed every family member and have entertainment.

York Place is an entirely different kind of elderly care in a WONDERFUL WAY! It feels and smells like a family home,,,with caring staff at ALL levels participating in the many varied activities. The hallways are like a nice hotel, not like a hospital corridor. The decor is always cheery, the staff friendly. More importantly though, there is never a time I've come (and I come at all hours) that my mother is not totally attended to. Initially, I was shocked at all the staff members who not only knew her name but quickly learned her likes and dislikes. Where I had her before, she would call for help and it might be an hour before someone came. I felt like I had to be there as often as I could. It was heartbreaking to see other residents call for help and have no one come too. When I visit my mother at York Place, I see the attention the staff gives to others who don't have visitors as well. the ratio of staff to patients seems more than adequate (something unusual in healthcare today). In every way, York Place is more than I ever dreamed existed. thankful for [name removed] and ALL the staff who make it such a special place for every resident. [Name removed]

My mom is very safe and secure at York Place. The care is wonderful. Mom has been very happy here and has been here 7 years. The activities keeps mom busy and the staff helps in every way possible.

Wonderful place! Excellent employees. It is like one big family. No worries about your family. Well taken care of.

Emerald Place is a good place for our mother. The staff knows everyone including the families. Staff are always aware of things going on with the residents and are open to talking with families about any concerns. There are staff changes (turnover) as there are everywhere but the long term employees are many and great!

My aunt has been at Emerald Place for the past 5 years. They have taken excellent care of her. They have always stepped into do the extra things needed with her care when she has health issues. They have lots of activities that she really enjoys. She likes the food they provide for meals.

Excellent Thanksgiving Dinner. The staff is wonderful! Thanks

Emerald Place has treated my Mother with love and care her dx has progresed over the years she has been here, buth they have took good care of her still. States, "she belongs here that she is family."

Very nice place, staff is very nice and helpful. Very cozy and comfortable room to live in. Feels like a family atmosphere.

Wonderful, great staff, kind, respectful, and caring about others.

The staff is helpful and friendly. My mother has everything she needs under one roof. My mother is 98 and they keep her active. She loves exercises, bingo, word games. She can come and go as she pleases.

This is a wonderful place.

I recommend anyone who lives in or needs to receive Assisted Living Care to move into Seymour Place. My loved one had a pet dog that was allowed to live here with my Aunt. Customer service was top notch. Clean, neat place to live. Compassionate caregivers!

My tour guide was [name removed], Community Relations Director. Cedarhurst was built in 2015 and until recently operated under a different name. The core of the structure is between the two wings. The main dining room is in the core area on the ground floor. Family & friends of memory care residents can dine w/ the resident in the main dining room. The main assisted living section occupies three stories in the west wing; memory care units are in the east wing and are located on the ground & second floor. To reach either of these units, you walk down a corridor that contains assisted living apartments. Access is through a locked door w/ key pad access. Apartments are spacious. Bathrooms are fully accessible. Each memory care unit has its own lounge, dining area, kitchen area and a couple of additional common areas. The second floor unit has a long balcony w/ seating & plants. The ground floor unit has direct access to a garden. Both balcony & garden face a wooded area. To access the garden, residents of second floor rooms must exit the unit, take the elevator down to the ground floor, walk down a corridor and be admitted to the memory care unit. This was the primary drawback I saw to residence on the second floor. A beauty salon and therapy room are in the core area and are available to all residents. Both memory care units are staffed by nurses 24/7. Cedarhurst does not have a doctor on call but having a nurse 24/7 outweighed this lack. [name removed] introduced all staff we encountered by name and title/responsibilities. All staff were friendly and smiling. She called residents by name and briefly chatted w/ a few. The Executive Director, [name removed], came to The Neighborhoods, the skilled nursing facility where my husband is presently, to do an assessment and make sure he was suitable for residence at Cedarhurst. I didn't want to choose Cedarhurst because it was the only place that met my husband's needs but because it was the best place for him to reside for the next 2-3 months and possibly longer. Therefore, I considered two other assisted living places in Columbia w/ memory care units. I rejected one w/out touring it. I toured one owned by Americare, the group that owns The Neighborhoods (where he has received excellent care). It had a doctor on call but nurses were only available 8 am-5 pm; CNAs and Med Techs staff the place evenings & weekends w/ a nurse on call. Therapy was available but staff came in to provide it and there was no dedicated therapy room. So I chose Cedarhurst because I am convinced it is the best place in Columbia for my husband.

Very interested in this place. Sounded appealing to me.

The staff and service is exceptional. They take care of my parents like they are part of their family. I am definitely happy with my decision to bring my parents here. My role has changed from a caregiver to a daughter. I highly recommend Cedarhurst.

I am pleasantly surprised with the high quality of service and care we have received here. They accommodate our every need we have. I also have a support system to help me with my wife's care. I highly recommend Cedarhurst. The food is excellent as well.
