Cogir Senior Living

The community is currently going through a transition. We are waiting on new activities director, and several other new positions. I enjoy it here and would recommend you look into. They have low sodium diet which I enjoy. Sometimes the food is cold. Otherwise suppers aren't up to par, such as the bread being hard. The suppers seem to be lacking overall.

The community is very clean and they have really kept the community clean to combat covid. The food is very good and we are able to eat with our loved one in her room. They have started activities back up and they have a list of activities daily. They have multiple levels of care so they offer independent, assisted, and memory care. I like the layout of the community and we like the safety of the community also. I would recommend this community to others.

I would recommend it, but make sure you focus on a clear line of communciation with the managment. and staff. At times they seem understaffed, and this could be based on teh Covid issue. I feel like my rating would change if not for Covid. It was good when we moved in, and then took a bit of a nosedive when Covid hit. There was a little breakdown in communication, but it's coming back. But my loved one is very happy oveall. She has commented that the food could be better. They do somnething a little different there, with teh main meal at lunch and lighter meal for dinner. That's taken her some getting used to. She feels it more like a heavy snack than a meal at dinner. As things are opening up, my confidence is being re-established, and that's been good to see.

Our experience has been good so far, the community is in the right location. The staff members are very good and really take great care of our loved one. Our loved one is in the memory care unit so there are not to many activities going on, but we are not displeased with the value.

Communication was slow they did contact me if anything was needed but it took longer to respond to my emails and texts. The community is a really good value and they keep it very clean and neat. The staff is also very nice and friendly. I would recommend this community to others.

I appreciate that the staff makes special allowance for people with special needs.

I chose Garden Valley because of the closeness to family members. The apartment sizes are a little tight, the 1 bedroom is about 535 square feet. I think they could provide more vegetarian foods on the menu and add more real fruit. They do have good parking and they have decent security especially with covid going on. I believe they are trying to make everybody as comfortable as possible.

It the best place you could have your parent at during covid. They could come and go as needed, everyone followed the covid protocols. The communication was very between the staff and our family. They kept us well informed. I would recommend this community to others

The communication is good between the staff and the family. They are quick to get back to us if we have any questions. The food could be better it's not as good as they made it out to be. I would recommend this community to others

It's a good place. I would put my loved one there again. But I do think Covid presented challenges because you can't go in to visit. The director lacked communication skills, which presented more challenges. The rest of the staff was great. The lady who answers the phone is wonderful. They did provide adequate communication about my loved one's treatments, but I wish they could have provided more. Especially during Covid when you're not allowed to visit, I wish they had some sort of online portal for families to know more what's going on.

This community is an independent living but it would be nice to have someone who could help with minor medical issues. The communication is above average between the staff and our family. They have a newsletter packet that is given out weekly. I would recommend this community to others

Our experience so far has been really good, and they are doing the best they can given the circumstances. They are still doing small activities, I like to participate in the bible studies and my wife likes to do her own things. It is a great place to live, the staff are very friendly and really go out of their way for you. They do a great job keening up with apartments whether that is cleaning or maintenance, and anytime you need help with something they are their right away.

The staff is friendly. The meals are being delivered to the rooms of the residents. The residents do have the option to go to the dining room. The staff is very good to work with. There is an email if anything changes. They are allowing visits with a mask to see your loved one.

I would recommend the community. The staff and cleanliness are two things that stand out to me about Harvard Park Retirement. The staff is great at communication.

During the short time my parents were in here they enjoyed their time. We chose this facility at the time because of the value for the money and the needs that we had at the moment. The staff were very accommodating and friendly. The residents were very friendly and my mom really appreciated that. It is a nice place I would recommend to others looking.

I think it worked well for us. The staff was helpful.

We chose Garden Valley because it was in her home community and they had larger apartments with outdoor patios and decks. I would also tell others that they are very pet friendly. Overall it has been a great experience, I would highly recommend.

They just had a huge change in staff. One of the things is that they allow the residents to smoke in their rooms, and sometimes it smells like smoke in the buildings. The activities director is great.

We chose The Garden Club because we thought at the time it was a 5 on all the above, but covid has messed with the ratings some. Her apartment size is great, but I have not seen the rest. I think the food does need improvement, they provide a lot of cold foods like sandwiches for main meals my mom says. I know they are doing the best they can under the circumstances and I would recommend them.
