I am very well pleased

The services are very good, with the exception of the service in the dining room. The food is good, but the service is lacking a small bit, due possibly to the staff needing to be better trained. Other than that one small critique, I am very well pleased.

Review of Coventry of Mahtomedi Alzheimer's / Memory Care in Mahtomedi, MN

My visit last week went well. The rooms were smaller than those at Cerenity & NO furnishings come with them. Also, there are only 16 rooms that aren't memory care, and so it would not be easy to get into. Common areas were very nice.

We were looking forward to going to Fox Point before my mom became ill, but never made it. We were very disappointed because they went back on their word in telling us we would be receiving a portion of our money because my mom was not utilizing their services, but when she didn't move in after being released from the hospital and rehab, they went back on their word.

A nice place, going through a bit of transition

We're pleased with this community so far, it's a clean, nice looking place, and the staff are friendly. The food service is phenomenal! At the time of this review the care services leave a little to be desired, they are going through a transition to a new director of nursing. But they are definitely making the effort, and I am seeing improvement.

Although the place is not opulent the decor and feeling is much like a home and family ,not Like a hotel. The staff is attentive without being overly intrusive and very willing to adapt their ways to Mom's likes and dislikes. They really appears to enjoy working with this age of clients. The "care plan" is dynamic which is needed as her needs change. Meals are not fancy but nutritious.

Large and High Care Level

Very nice, but more hospital-like situation. It might be better for my mom in the future, but it is a little too much for her right now. My preference is a smaller community, and Parkside Manor is a larger set up. They do provide a high level of care. I liked all the activities and they made sure that people would attend. My mom can't make her own decisions and they helped with that.
