Distinctive Living

The facility seemed unprepared for my visit with no warm water and a refrigerator that quit working several times, spoiling the contents. The people were friendly but seemed disorganized with a staff change about three weeks before I moved in.

Overall very good experience with a staff of caring people and a nice environment

Mira Vie was so good to us! I am thankful. They were very gracious with my dad, but unfortunately, my dad had a level of dementia not fit for Mira Vie! I send my love to all the staff. They were very patient

The staff is friendly and attentive. Food is very good and plentiful. The facility is always kept clean and neat. They keep a close eye on the medications. There is always some type of entertainment or activity going on, some of which include family members. Most basic medical visits are on site, which leads me to my one major issue. The medical staff seems well qualified and does a good job, but as the primary person responsible for my mother's health care, it's very difficult to get information about who she sees her and what the prognosis is. I usually find out that a Dr. has seen her when I get the Medicare statement. This is an issue I'm working through. Overall I would recommend Mira Vie.

Inspired was bought by another company several months ago. Many of the regular staffers resigned, many were kept on ( Activity Dept., PT/OT) . New owners brought their own people in. I have seen many changes for the better, happy to admit that. Most challenging is the language barrier...... all the residential attendees speak Spanish only, difficult to communicate with them. My husband's room is immaculate, his closet and clothing meticulously hung up and arranged. Nice scent throughout the facility.

I would. Great place to live. The staff is friendly and the food is good. They provide many activities and help you feel welcome

My relative was at Mira Vie in West Milford. She liked it there very much and felt that she got good care. She made friends and enjoyed the ambience of the place.

Mira Vie is okay. My ex-husband never was and obviously still is difficult. However, l feel they need more staff, not only for the patients' care, but also for maintenance of the facility. But, I have nothing but respect, admiration and appreciation for the staff.

I will give them a 4 only because there was a change in management that seems to have shifted the "vibe" there over the last 3 months or so. I would recommend.

The staff is very sweet. They try to keep them all busy. My dad always looks and smells clean. A negative would be most of the Techs speak very little English, so it was hard to communicate.

My mother complains that the dining room is too cold and it makes her food cold. Staff are all nice to her and very caring. My mother is not used to socializing and needs coaxing to participate with activities.

My Mother has been at the facility for approximately 45 days as of today. The facility is very clean and the staff is very nice and attentive to her needs. I love that her medical needs can be met on-site. And the dinning program is excellent. She is on a waiting list for Independent living and is struggling with the social interactions with others in the Assisted Living environment. We were informed that she can go to the Independent living side and participate in their activities. So they do try and problem solve to meet the needs of the residents.

My favorite part of Inspired Living Ivy Ridge would be the staff. They're very warm and loving towards my mom and get back to me very quickly if I have any questions. The facility is clean and well taken care of.

What we like the most about The Harpeth is the warm and friendly staff. Yes, we would recommend the community to other families based on the experience so far.

Super friendly staff. Facility well located near highways. Less ideal is residents want to walk outside of the premises. My mom liked to take long walks and was slightly restrained by the location

I thought the staff did well, by and large. I liked most of the staff. I think they are not equipped for when people have a lot of needs. When my dad had more needs, he needed maybe oxygen, maybe a 2-person assist, they couldn't take him anymore, but that's true with most places.

The staff is very warm; the meals are wonderful. I do think it was not a great fit for my Dad, who really needed more intensive medical care than the staff was used to providing. The staff here is wonderful. This would be a good fit for a senior who's reasonably healthy and enjoys a warm, cozy environment with gentle activities, good food, and a bit of peace and quiet.

What we like the most about Inspired Living is the cleanliness and the friendliness of the administrative staff, they are great. Where they are lacking is the ratio of residents to caregivers. Yes, we would recommend this community to other families but they need to get more caregivers

They are nice and helpful. Room sizes are nice. I have never eaten there so I don't know about the meals.

Quality of care is a hard one to rate because it varies from caregiver to caregiver. I would give an overall rating of 4. Some caregivers would rate as a 5 while some rate as a 3. Yes, I would recommend this community to others and I have done so already. The search is a hard one because what the top people think or hope is the truth about their facility is not always the case. To the tenant of your facility it is tied to the care givers. Based on my experience (not just at Inspired Living) the peace and comfort of the tenant is tied to a great degree to the care givers. I have seen them all, the really good who care, the really bad that are just putting in time, the dishonest who will steal from you and lie about you, those who do only what they have to, etc. I am sure you know all this so I will stop here. All the staff from top to bottom are ultra important to the tenant at any facility like yours.
