Distinctive Living

Wonderful, wonderful Place. Dad is extremely happy and so are we. Actually, we brought him from TX, and he is 93, so we were really concerned about him adjusting. The staff is so caring and loving and made an effort just like they said they would. They put someone with him all day long until he adjusted. They were there for him because he is legally blind and now he is really comfortable. They helped us get furniture and home health for his knee, something that wouldn't have been available at his previous community.

Vanessa from A Place for Mom recommended the community and when we went to visit it we just loved it. It was the best fit for what our loved one needed and what we were looking for. It is a very nice and pretty community. It provides a very home like atmosphere. We were pleasantly surprised by them. They offer plenty of activities for the residents. They make it very comfortable for families to come and visit. They are very warm and welcoming.

Independent Living Resort of Montgomery, My mom loves it at CaraVita. Granted the building is a little older but the amount of space you get for the money is unbelievable...and well worth it. The dining experience is always the best.....the food is amazing which is very important to my mom and she raves about it often. I would refer anyone to see for themselves!!! You won't be disappointed!!

We chose Ivy Ridge Living Center for several reasons, first - the price was right, second - it was neat, clean, bright, and very appealing from when we first walked in. There were no bad smells, they do laundry everyday which I really liked. The people there are very friendly they answered all my questions. The staff addresses any issues or problems right away and even change their process if they find a better way of doing something. They have a very progressive dementia unit, every resident has their own room and wears a bracelet that can only unlock their door. The doors automatically lock and they just installed lights with motion sensors so the lights automatically come on if my mom heads to the bathroom at night. Throughout Ivy Ridge there are no ridges or rugs for residents to trip on and walkers easily slide on their floors which I really like. It is very bright and cheery, they did a study and found dementia patients respond better to bright colors so they painted part of the facility yellow and part green in an effort to help better orient the residents. Ivy Ridge is fairly new and has only been open about a year. A friend said there were 14 residents in January of this year and now there are 38, so it is filling up quickly. The staff does a good job with answering questions and discussing financial options. Also, the social director updates us on how my mom is doing and will take a handful of residents on outings for dessert. Her nurse speaks to me directly and is on top of the medications and medical needs of the residents. I also really liked that there is a locked courtyard that residents can access as they please. It doesn't allow them off the grounds so they are safe within the facility but they can still go outside when they want. They even can even put a GPS chip in resident's bracelets for residents who tend to wander off. My mom did not need this but it was nice to know Ivy Ridge has the technology and will use it if needed. Everyone treats my mom with dignity and respect. They also have a very nice dining experience, there's no rushing the residents through a meal. They sit about four to a table and offer residents seconds and keep checking on them which I really appreciate. I toured about 30 other places and I knew right away that Ivy Ridge was our first choice for mom.

I have recently moved my mother into her new apartment at The Chelsea at Brick. From my first visit there, I was impressed and knew this was the place I had been looking for. It is a top notch facility that feels like home. The staff is wonderful - kind, caring and friendly and everyone goes the extra mile to make new residents and their families feel welcome and at home. I highly recommend The Chelsea at Brick

Their location is close to where I live. The staff is extremely friendly and extremely helpful. The short time that my parents have been there they have been treated very well.

Visited and liked the fact they would switch Mom out of the Cottage if she would do better in Assisted living or vice versa.Liked the rooms they were generally larger than the other facilities. Visited at lunch food smelled great and looked appetizing. Staff were pleasant

Visited Bald Eagle. Impressed.

Very clean, well organized and exceptionally well run. Extensive programs for the members.

I toured Inspired Living at Kenner and it was absolutely beautiful, I loved it. I preferred for my mom to be there, but it was outside of her price range. I worked with them for quite some time, but we just couldn't get the price to a point where it would be feasible. My initial tour was good, I went back again and I didn't really like it because I felt that the lady was speaking as if my mom wasn't there and she was on the tour with me. She was very nice, but regardless of a persons mentation, you should give them that level of respect. That was the second time; the first time, [name removed], who I really liked did a great job on the tour. I built a rapport with her and I appreciated her.

My loved one is very happy, loved their apartment. My loved one has become more social, which is great. I picked this place because of it's all in-inclusive( etc cleaning), a convient location, it looks newer, and it's affordable for my loved one.

Inspired Living was relatively new. The facility was beautiful and very nice. We had a wonderful tour. I felt they had the same quality of services and staff as the place we chose and are happy with.

Everyone there has been so terrific and extremely friendly. Overall the meals are satisfactory. They have a ton of different activities. Our loved one really enjoys the bingo and trivia. Every month they have a different destination where they encouraged the families to come and eat meals with them. For Mardi Gras they did a themed dinner, and for the state of Nevada they did like an old Vegas theme where they had a gentlemen come play songs for them. Based on our experience so far we would recommend the community to others.

This community is perfect we just connected more with another community that we felt was perfect for my loved one.

I really liked this community but they did not have any single beds for my loved one.

For every imaginable holiday there is some activity they find to celebrate it, and if there is not a holiday they get to explore countries. At first we thought the rooms were small, but in fact they are pretty nice and encourage the residents to get out and about. One of the unique selling points is that they can walk outside in an enclosed walk way and sitting area anytime we want. We would recommend this community to others.

They have people to clean and do your laundry for you. I have a nice size unit with a nice walk in shower. I would like a kitchen but they don’t have those. They have a lot of activities, bingo, exercise, and church services. They do have transportation. I would say they are the best in the area. They have a beautiful swimming pool and a park. You can have pets. Owners are wonderful. They keep grounds just beautiful.

Our Dad passed away 9/16/19. He had fantastic care over the past 18 months at Inspired Living Sun city center. The staff went above and beyond for my Dad and family. Thank you and God Bless.

We are delighted with the care our Mom is getting at Hidden Lakes Inspired Living. In addition to a failing memory, at age 94, Mom has several other conditions which complicate the care she needs. Mom requires very special attention. We were concerned that she might not be able to accept living at any care facility. We are, therefore, extremely pleased that Mom feels completely at home at Hidden Lakes. We thank the staff at Hidden Lakes for the extraordinary care given our Mom, for getting her to feel comfortable at her new home and for giving us peace-of-mind.

Dad is 96 with Lewy bodies Dementia and Parkinson's and always says that he is living in a beautiful place. Free access to the beautiful outdoors, two screened lanai's, great food, loving and caring well staffed new home for Dad. I know he is well cared for. Lots of activities and family involvement. Could not have found a more wonderful place for Dad to be safe and well cared for.
