Cogir Senior Living

This was my first time in this situation and having to look for a community. This was a good community and a good tour and the community was nice. I just had to find something that fit in my loved ones budget.

They are very friendly, kind and caring at this community. They have activities like musical acts, bus rides to different places around town and downtown. They also offer a bus for groceries and Dr. appointments. They have little carnivals and we play games and have a great time. There is always things to do around the community to stay busy and involved. They have bridge, card games, counseling group, church services and more.

We chose Cadence mainly because of the convenient location and we had a recommendation from a friend as well. The room sizes are adequate. They have hired a new chef who has not started yet so w are very hopeful. The residents have just started a food committee where they can talk about their likes and dislikes. It is a light and bright atmosphere, there is plenty of outdoor space for when the weather is nice, and they have a lot of activities provided. The activities director has been wonderful. I would recommend to others looking.

We are really enjoying the services that are offered through their CNA's. Even though our loved one is in an independent living apartment we can still get med management and assistance with showering and bathing. We really like their daily activity schedule and based on our experience so far we would recommend the Carmel Place to other families.

All of the residents seem to be happy. They are friendly. The residents seem to have some turnover. The staff is consistent. Pick up for food could be more consistent on direction for orders. You have to kind of guess when the food was ready. You have to look for a cart to know if the food is ready for pickup. I would prefer the cart.

We chose Cogir of Rohnert Park because they seemed to be the best value for the money in the area. When we met the staff, they were very engaged with the residents and we thought our mom would fit in well here and she really does, she loves the place. The apartment sizes here are great. The issue with the food is consistency which may be pandemic related, the staff are inconsistent and some of the food options have been inconsistent as well. I would absolutely recommend to others looking.

I would recommend Carmel Place. This is a good value for your money. Your loved one would have the services they need here. The staff are very attentive and nice. They do allow an outside agency come in to assist my loved one when needed. The quality of food has been off and on. They have been short staffed like other communities. The community is providing more snacks for the residents. There are activities available. There is transportation to assist the residents with appointments and more.

We love the area this community is in, as well as the pond. It is really a great place and the price is reasonable. The staff and residents there are very friendly. Any issues our loved one has no matter what the staff are they to help out. Super attentive and accommodating. We like all the activities they have going on, especially the music they put on for the residents. It gets them out and dancing with one another. It is also a pet friendly community. We would recommend Emerald Pond to other families.

I did a virtual tour with Lake Shore Commons and they were very helpful and friendly. All in all it was a good tour, I just got a better deal somewhere else.

I would recommend you check out Emerald Pond to see if it would be a good fit for your loved one. The people are nice, the community is affordable, and a good value for the money. There is not a big selection of food available for the residents. The taste is also bland for some. There are quite a few activities for the residents to participate in. There is even a happy hour.

My experience has been complex, and not cut and dry. They say you get internet, but that's not a true statement. They do have the internet, but most people can't access it because it's not strong enough. But the food is good. The people are friendly, including the staff. Overall I think it's a a win-win. But there are tings that need improvement, which is true everywhere.

Overall, it's a good service. They're a good provider for my friend and people in his situation. It's a newly renovated, beautiful facility, both on the interior and exterior. It's roomy and clean, and a calming environment. There's a big TV screen for the people. The staff brought cookies by for the residents the other day when I was there. The staff seems fine overall. Sometimes I can smell urine in the hallways though. And the cost is very high, higher than we were expecting. But overall those are minor things. Especially after looking at other places, Cadence is a good choice.

We like how clean and well kept the community it. We also like the apartments those are also nice and clean, and we would recommend the Pincrest community to other families.

Right now nationwide there's a shortage of workers. Cogir has been victim to that as well and has not had enough people working. And then on top of that, they had a Covid outbreak. You could tell the caregivers were exhausted, which concerned my parents. They were obviously working very very hard but didn't seem to have the staffing to meet the needs of the community, which was evident to us in their several weeks' respite stay. My parents are both in wheelchairs, and the doorframes into the bathroom on the 1-bedroom and studio units are very narrow and don't seem like they're set up for wheelchair residents. So keep that in mind if your loved one is wheelchair-bound. They did have a lot of other ADA accommodations, but they did not make the door frames large enough. For us, one of the best things about our experience was we were in a desperate situation to find a place, and they allowed us to rent instead of buy in. I couldn't find any other place that would offer a furnished place for a rental, and [name removed] in sales was extraordinary. She called me back on Thanksgiving night, was very accommodating, got a room ready and painted, and went way out of her way. She even got a king size bed for my parents, which is hard to come by in senior living. I can't say enough about the staff in general. They are amazing. [Name removed] the head nurse oversees the entire care team and is phenomenal. He is very bright and a very skilled nurse. He has anticipated issues with my parents and run interference with their doctors. He has been incredible. Probably the best part of the experience has been him and his team. For my parent's needs, we had a great experience. It's maybe not quite as active of a community as we were expecting, due to many residents with higher care needs. But for the right resident, it's a great community.

This is a perfect community for independent living. It is easily accessible and they are very accommodating. It covers all my loved ones needs but it is very expensive and I feel like may be priced to keep certain populations out. They have activities like arts and crafts, holiday celebrations, choir practice, games and more for the residents to do to stay busy. There is a lot of general interaction between the residents. They also have a salon with a barber and they do hair and nails for the residents. They also have a very sensitive and an appropriate response to covid and it was handled excellent.

The staff members here are very friendly and the community is very inviting. We would recommend the Longmont Regent to other families
