Compass Senior Living

I toured Junction City Retirement and Assisted Living. The facility seemed really run down. The manager was very nice and the residents seemed happy.

The facility is nice and the units are generously sized and well cared for. The management seems to be stretched thin and high staff turnover is worrisome. Property recently let one RN go and indicated that they have no plans to replace them which means that now there is only one RN at the facility to oversee all of the Assisted Living members as well as all the Memory Care members.

The food is poor quality. They have tons of carbs, and little protein. It does not seem fresh. They don't seem to have good communication. My advice to other famlies is to be on top the staff to get things done. Don't be afraid to speak up or complain.

This is a very nice community, due to pandemic the staffing issues are the primary concerns. They don't have enough staff to provide the hourly checks on the residents. However, this community isn't any different than another community due to the staffing shortages overall due to the pandemic. The community is open to listening to the family's questions or concerns that we may have about our loved one.

The community seemed disorganized and unkept due to the community painting the lobby.

I know my loved one fell and none of the staff checked on my loved one. My loved one had a huge bruise on half of their face. There was a shift change at 7, and I spoke to the head nurse and there was nothing reported about injuries. I ended up moving my loved one out of the community because of this and lots of other reasons. I even questioned which area my loved one was in. The staff would leave my loved one's kitchenette, and my loved one didn't know it was there or that belonged to them. My loved one needed to have food placed in front of them, or my loved one wouldn't be able to eat it. They let the residents choose their food, and my loved one kept choosing the same meals that weren't nutritious.

Pleasant and helpful staff. Simply felt that it may not a be a good fit for my mom's needs.

They are not very good at communicating. You have to take the lead on communication. My mom does not like the food, she says to repetitive and of poor quality. Take the time to do your research and if your loved one is independent this might be a good fit.

Don't be naive about the process. Make sure you have all your research and find out about the facilities beforehand. Have everything in writing and make sure you know who to contact if you need anything. the sizes of the rooms are adequate, and the food was very minimal and disappointing. The community worked with me to keep my parents together. I would recommend this facility as much as any other facility.

Good facility with some areas of improvement needed. Has a lot of staff turnover which confuses some residents with dementia. Food is generally okay but frequently runs out of sandwich meat and soup at mealtime. Some caregivers don't seem to be motivated; although there are a few exceptional ones. Caregivers (some) seems to lack adequate training in dealing with dementia among the elderly. Just tonight I was there for dinner they had no deli meats or hamburgers. They need to do a better job at managing the food orders.

The caregivers are very nice, and caring. They do not have much experience, and can make the process slow. Management needs work.

This property is aging, but lovely. Huge established trees and landscaping, and a very nice facility.

Cannot justify the $225 per month increase. The staff is great but no matter how dedicated they are, corporate gives the facility a big black eye with their greed. Corporate = 1 star Staff = 5 stars

My love one previously resided in this location and she was not happy. In fairness with the property, I liked the staff. They are very kind, attentive, but it doesn’t dissipate the issues that we unfortunately experienced. During the time that she was there she was not assessed properly. It affected the medication that was administered to her which resulted her to being immobile and was undergoing other symptoms. My love one is a pretty physically strong person and within 24hrs of being off that medication she was back to her normal self. We spoke with the staff and it turns out that person that assessed her was fired. I personally think that probably the administrative team could use some work.

I toured this community. I was not comfortable with the settings and the environment of this community. The staff were nice and caring and were able to answer my questions, Rooms have to be shared at this community. I would recommend that families tour this community for the care of a loved one.

My husband is there as he needs 24 hour care. It is a memory care and he is not like most of them there. I would move him if there was an alternative. He does not belong there. They are very nice and do care for him. I have no complaints there but I do not call it an assistant living as the residence are to far out of it. He has not found one who can carry on a conversation with him.

I was not happy with this community. We were going to have my mom move in for her care needs. We paid the amount to get my mom set in for a move in time and she backed out. We were not able to get a refund and they could not understand why we did not move in. The staff seemed to be nice and friendly. the community was clean. My mom is not here and doing great at home for now. I do think other families would be happy with the care that is received here from the staff and the cleanliness

I like living at this community. The staff is very nice and caring. They could use a little help with the food. This is a clean community and always taken care of. I would recommend this good care for others to live here.

We were there on a saturday and there was no one at this community to assist us with our tour. The community did not smell good. This community was a little more expensive than the community we chose.

I have noticed that they seem to be low staffed in the dementia area and you go in and the residents are just sitting around like nothing is going on. They have a schedule of events, but there is not much interaction going on.
