Christopher Heights an Assisted Living Community

Goog clean facility food is excellent however the staff can be lazy with no regard for clients.I would recommend staff needs to be more attentive to the clients they need more rehabilitation services no gym activity no exercise other than 9 in the morning workers can be controlling and loud when speaking to clients

This is a very nice facility. My mom is friendly, but stubborn and has had a bit of a hard time adjusting to Assisted Living. The executive director [name removed] has been very nice and helpful. Maintenance has been great. They've been fairly responsive and quite nice overall here. I'd been told by a great resource at another facility that some places have an ambassador program. The program has a person that guides and helps new residents get settled. They don't seem to have that here and I wish they did. Mom could really benefit from having someone to guide her and make her feel comfortable. To me, it doesn't seem like she's broken in to the community yet. She was very reluctant to go into assisted living. She's not incredibly verbal and I know an ambassador would help a lot. The activities seem wonderful, but mom just doesn't engage and take advantage of them. I'm not sure if she's even alerted about things like activities. Overall, I would recommend them to friends and family.

The people are nice, but if you have more needs this is not the place for you. Food seems to be the biggest complaint.

This is a nicely appointed facility with excellent staff, but the food is absolutely horrible. They have gone thru many food staff, hired a nutritionist, have resident food meetings & there has been no improvement over the 5 yrs my mom has been there. Their meals are a n extremely important part of a senior’s day, so this is a huge disappointment for them. PLEASE, PLEASE check out the food before you sign your senior up for this resident,

I would recommend Christopher Heights, should your loved one not need many services. Activities are very repetitive with little to no imagination and the meals are also very repetitive with little to no imagination. There are a lot of "rules" which can be difficult to follow. A good example is breakfast is from 7:30 until 8:30,this can be difficult to achieve in older folks. This is due to staffing being used in the kitchen and then within the facility as service to the residents. Lastly, If your resident is a fall risk, you will need to purchase something like a Life Alert. This is because the facility does not have pushed buttons for the residents, There are simply two pullcords within the apartment.The facility does make an effort to check in on residents a number of times during the day.
