Cogir Senior Living

A true 5 star!!!***** I was looking for a home for my 85 year old Mother who has dementia and I believe I found the perfect spot for her at Redwood Heights. My first communication was with Rosalind and what an amazing lady. She spent over an hour on the phone with me and finally 2 years later and many, many phone calls and tears we finally got mom situated in her new beautiful home. I had looked at many others but they just didn't have that warm fuzzy feeling like Redwood Heights. It wasn't an easy task and we are still trying to get her acclimated. Every employee and staff member that we have come in contact with has been awesome. They have gone above and beyond trying to help Mom and believe me it has not been easy. She has wandered off a couple times and they have been spot on to get her back to her room and calmed down. From Mike, to Rosalind to Michelle, Gloria, Rhonda, Aaron, Scott, Vanessa, Jessica, Debra, etc. I can't even remember all of them but let me just say that we love all of them. Mom is not easy and they have made her feel so at home and she always says, "I love it here and everyone is so nice"! I would absolutely recommend Redwood Heights!

The Princeton Village - Nathan is the person who runs the show, and Melissa is the sales manager and they're both very caring, courteous and kind people. They took time to meet with her, and be with her. They're very helpful, although they have just one maintenance guy. Still. the apartments are in good repair and are very clean. They have a good laundry facility, exercise room, and a movie theater. I was really fortunate that the Princeton had a one-bedroom apartment available right when I needed it. The Princeton is also one of those places that, if you run out of personal funds, will continue to care for your loved one on Medicaid.

We recently moved a relative to Arte. It is a beautiful faciilty and the food is superb. Since it is not a capacity some things were less than perfect, but nothing is ever just perfect, the staff was more than willing to correct any issues and work with us to make sure all our relative's needs were met. It is now under a new management and great things are happening. Our relative is enjoying the activities and all they have to offer. He feels welcome, has made new friends and knows the staff cares for him. We have the peace of mind that he, although living independently, at over 88, is in a setting where he can thrive but then has help if needed. The new management is reaching out to the residents and their families for input on how to make it the best it can be. New residents are moving into the beautifully appointed apartments weekly. Be sure and take a tour when looking for such a place for yourself or a loved one. You will not be disappointed.

We had my father living there about 2 weeks. He died about 2 weeks ago, after being transferred from the hospital. I thought their level of care was excellent; They cooordinated with hospice and checked on him every hour. The staff were very welcoming to us. They were very professional - they have a private dining room, and they went over all the details with us. I have to admit that, not knowing what all this cost, it was competitive with others but it came to about $165 a day for both the care and the studio apartment. That was for a kitchenette, a chair and a sofa bed. The apartment was very bright and well-lit and the facilities were very well taken care of.

The only complaint I would have is there is not a smooth transition when you first move in. There is not a system in place to make sure new residents have their medications and no one seemed to have any answers. My mom wishes there was more to do, there are no arts and crafts, which she would like.

Facility food and people good. Communication could be better sometimes. I would recommend Cogir of Kent to others.

Very attentive, lots of activities. Could use more parking. I would definitely recommend.

Impressed with the property and the tour guide was knowledgeable. The location is good being near the mall.

Initially there was confusion with meds and transportation, but that quickly was sorted out. The place is clean, lots of activities for a variety of people. The staff is super nice!! Our family, including our loved one, likes that it is a small facility. The staff knows everybody and treat the residents with care and kindness.

The the staff were great, room clean, apartment size good; not many activities for her age.

Very professional & nice friendly staff. Clean environment. Great rooms. And many nearby businesses.

First of all, Cogir Alexandria Filmore is beautiful facility. It’s probably fairly or atleast very well maintained. Unfortunately, I forgot to put oon my hearing aids, but luckily my tour guide spoke clearly. I toured from an Independent point of view, and at the end I was put off at first by costs. Then I looked at the assisted living document and saw what thought was a doable price. So i decided to remain independent in my current apartment until I needed assisted living.

Shuttle is not reliable. Runs very infrequently. The meals have been inconsistent at times.

I would give it a 4. The care and staff are wonderful. I wish they did more activities with the residents, that's the only reason I didn't give a 5. I would recommend

Overall, the facility is a nice place for my mother. She enjoys the residents, the atmosphere and the staff

Since I have lived here for 9 months things have been outstanding for me. I would recommend it for an individual who is semi mobile and can mentally live independent. The housekeepers, food service workers, front desk workers. The main management has experienced a change at the high end and it is to provide an opinion.

The size of the apartment is good - feels comfortable. So nice to have the washer-dryer in it's closet. So convenient. Food is generally good except for some of the soups. Quiet which I appreciate a lot.

My sister loves it. Food is okay . Sometimes it's cold, when serving hot entrees. Not making sure condiments are provided. Something else about the food. This is the only problem she's having - you get a menu with options and a lot of times, options are not available. So why would you give someone options when they don't have any? The staff is good. Ambiance is real nice- very clean. Her apartment is good size.

I toured with my dad and we both appreciated the residents when we walked in the door. We sat down and had a good conversation followed by a tour of the property. Loved the location, layout, and lunch was very good. Wish there was an option for laundry in unit, but not a deal breaker.

We had a very pleasant tour of Cogir at The Quarry. Of the eight properties I've toured, The Quarry offered the most amenities and options for my parents, including some they are unlikely to use. However, it all comes at a higher price. Since my father has mobility issues, I'm also concerned it might actually be too large. For us, this may be an example of too much of a good thing. We would need to come back with my parents for their opinion, after experiencing a meal or activity to fairly assess. Given the distance from my home, The Quarry is not on my short list to revisit at this time. Please note we did not meet with any staff other than the community relations director.
