Encore at Champlin was a bigger community split into two sections, memory care and general. It felt like my loved one's social level would have been kind of stunted here, because their memory care patients seemed to be farther along in their Alzheimer's and less social. It was a nice looking facility, but I just didn't feel like was a good social match for my loved one.

It's a very friendly, caring environment.

It seems like the staff that they have there have been there for a really long time, and that says a lot about the care that they're providing. We've used them a few times for respite, and everybody remembers my loved one and is always really welcoming. It's always been very clean every time I've been there. They put effort into planning activities to try to get people engaged every day, but it seems like people end up spending a lot of time in their rooms, although I understand that's just kind of the nature of this type of place, especially with short staffing.

A home away from home

Revere Court for our loved one is almost like a big sorority house. It has a very open and warm environment to it, and our loved one can walk around freely. It does not feel like a nursing home. We would recommend this community to others, but it does depend on the loved one's health. Our loved one is very active and curious, and the activities seem to be more geared to just motor skills. It seems a little remedial, like coloring and batting around balloons, so it is not very stimulating.

My review of Randall Residence of Auburn Hills

Due to the covid restrictions we have not been able to see the inside of the facility, but they just opened it up for outdoor visitations. The quality of the food is much better then our loved ones previous place, we know she is gaining weight. Our loved one is doing well there and seems to really enjoy the staff there when we are able to call and have conversations. They recently had a change in leadership, so sometimes communicating with the executive director has been difficult. However, for the most part everyone there is very polite and when we do call with questions they are able to get back to us in a timely manner.

Great communication, friendly and helpful staff

We chose Parkside Manor because of the size, it was smaller instead of a large, the friendliness of staff and the director, as well as the location. The room sizes here are decent compared to others we saw. Communication is a wonderful asset for this facility, if there are any issues they call me right away. Overall, I would recommend to others looking.
