Charter Senior Living

It's all expensive but the value was good. My friend was there for a respite stay. He commented that the staff, the cleaning staff, came in I don't know if it was with out knocking, but if he wasn't there they would come in and didn't lock the door behind them. He felt like it was a hospital instead of his home where he can lock his door and know that all his things are safe.

The only thing my mother sort of doesn't care for is the food. It's probably a lot to do with that she's used to cooking her own food but they have a lot of fried food and that bothers her digestion. My mother doesn't participate in the activities. There's not really much of anything she's interested in. They do have a lot of activities, it's just that they don't particularly interest my mother.

It is a very nice place. The staff has been very supportive to our loved one. We have had no problems or issues with them at all. Our loved one has adjusted very well to the community. Their safety measures are very good and they provide 3 balanced meals a day. They check on the residents regularly and make sure they are meeting the resident’s needs. The always administer the medication properly and with everything together it just provides me great peace of mind. I would recommend them to anyone.

She moved in there back in June and only lived there for 5 days when she had to go back to the hospital and yesterday she was able to go back to Emeritus and she wanted to, it was all her choice. The unit we chose is on a corner with a lot fo natural light which is good for her eyesight and we were able to decorate it and hang up pictures so it looks like her place. As long as she does well we'll be great. As children, we want the best for our parents, or most of us do, and the location of this place was what she wanted and it's in a neighborhood that we're all comfortable with. There's no place you're gonna find thats gonna be perfect, you just hope you find the one that your parent likes the best. We're going to wait and see about the care, coming out of a rehab situation you have to get adjusted to being in an assisted living but they food has been very good and as long as they can give her the care she needs we'll be happy.

The staff here is really nice. The location of the community is very nice and has a nice setting. We were very happy with the location because of the convenience for our family. We did not choose this community because of its location but rather for everything else they offer. I would recommend this community to anyone.

It's my brother's mother-in-law that lives there. They like it very much. The problem is that she is waiting for her husband to come live with her. He's in a rehab facility and I don't think he'll be coming to live with her. She misses her home and stays in her room all the time. She's happy with the apartment itself. Deborah Parke, who I worked with from A Place for Mom, is golden. She is just a jewel! She is so helpful and went above and beyond answering my questions so she gets kudos too.

MIke Barr and Mike Ebenson were really great and you could tell they cared about their residents and facility. We were able to take my dad for a tour as well but felt this was not the best fit for dad since he is very alert and pretty independent still and we wanted to make sure he was going to be able to have good interaction with others. the facility was very nice and clean, staff were friendly and definitely appeared to like their work.

My mother was there. She's in nursing care now. The place was clean and the people were nice. She didn't participate in the activities so I don't know about those.

The staff I thought was wonderful, I really can't say enought about them, every single one of them were very friendly. I thought the care was okay, of course my mom was used to having care 24/7 before she moved in there so that was a big adjustment for her. For the most part they seemed pretty responsive, I think theres an adjustment period on both sides: she was getting her meds and she was being cared for but she wasn't getting her bathing and shampoo regularly. There was some confusion on the parts of the aids but they did eventually get it straightened out. She couldn't participate in the activities but fortunately she did have a lot of company and she did enjoy the women she ate her meals with; they tried to match them up with people that were compatible with them so that was nice. It's difficult for any family now knowing what to expect, we had a few bumps in the road but it was mostly an understanding between the staff and me.

Beautiful home and decor. Very feminine. Not very many men.

Emeritus is a very friendly, well run facility. Tara Jalbert is a great spokeswoman for the company. The residents I spoke with are happy, the apartments I saw are very attractive and there are a lot of scheduled opportunities for residents to participate in if they choose.

We had to move my family member due to some psychiatric issues; we hope that once they get done with their treatment we will be able to move them back. It was a great place.

Another place we were impressed with, the facility was clean and the staff seemed really nice. The rooms were fine and seems to include the residents in a lot of activities. This will be a place we take my mom to see.

This was the first facility I visited, and it is the only one I have seen that provides everything I need on one site. I liked the campus and the staff, I was upset by the memory care ward, not by anything there--it was wonderful, but by the fact that I am going to need the care that is provided there. It was very serene and quiet well managed and peaceful. I don't think I could find better care at that point in my life when I reached it. It is just scary seeing what the future holds for me.

Susan was very informative and place looks and smelled clean. Residents looked comfortable. Saw rooms with and without furniture to get an idea what can fit. Dad liked it and would make a decision after a respite stay (June) if we can get it set up. Only problem not a front reception desk. And office spaces didn't really look over the front entrance.

I really liked director, she answereed my questions as they entered my mind,before i could ask them. the facility is really nice and I like the different wings having a theme. The rooms seem nice and bright. and the clients looked happy and comfortable.

Liked the facility. Over all good impression.

toured today. very nice, pretty setting,clean. Seems unusually [removed] good and bad? Director great.

Meadowmere Northshore is my 2nd choice at this point; but, my brothers will be touring there in the next couple of weeks.
