Five Star Senior Living

I picked them because of word of mouth; grounds; location near IU. I would recommend to others.

We all know that bad news travels fast, but today, this is all good news. Six months ago, our family brought our next-door neighbor and dear friend, Uncle [name removed], to Five Star. It is infrequent that a name clearly describes precisely who you are. However, the name Five Star represents this complete service facility perfectly. When you walk in, you are immediately greeted by a friendly hello from the receptionist and a sense that you could eat off the floor. Daily, Uncle [name removed] has been the grateful recipient of Director Tennant's top-down philosophy, which is filled with warmth, friendliness, highly competent staff at all levels of care, and great food, all couched in this lovely appointed facility. I would also be remiss if I did not mention all the daily and diverse programming available. Anyone who joins the Five Star family will be delighted.

The staff is very friendly to the residents and guests. In the dining hall the staff that I had just been introduced to even called me by name for a meal and were very friendly and attentive to me. They know all the residents names and what their favorites foods are. The residents are happy, friendly, and entertaining.

I have been a resident of Five Star Premiere Residences for 1 year. It is hard to know where to start when describing a very positive experience. So, I’ll begin with the building which is, anything but “institutional.” There are no long, dark halls. Five Star is a 10-story building constructed around a bright and light atrium. Natural light is everywhere. The atrium serves as a large meeting place, as well as, a space with comfortable furniture that invites conversation and seating for entertainment or a visit with a few close friends. Almost every apartment opens to a view of this atrium. Individual apartments are large and sunny with large windows and well-equipped kitchens. There are very large closets and plenty of cabinets for linens and other household items Comments would not be complete without mention of the staff. They are the heart and soul of Five Star. Starting with the Executive Director, who sets the tone of caring and respected leadership. She is thoroughly engaged

This was my first stop on a 5 locations search. I found myself comparing each place to 5 Star. It just made sense to select the place that checked all my boxes. Each person's needs are different, so I can't say this will be the place for each of you. Just look at many choices and decide for yourself.

The staff at Morningside has been very responsive to my uncle's and my family's needs.

This is the nicest, cleanest, most friendly, reasonably priced places I visited. The staff is amazing. It is beautiful, set in the rocks, it has numerous gas fireplaces to enjoy, lots of areas to sit and visit. The food is fabulous. The social calendar is active, ice cream socials, wine and snacks and music every Friday, bingo, cards, puzzles, and lots of areas to meet friends. Most of the social activities are open to family and friends. My dad is very happy there and thankful for all the staff, social life as well as the food! [name removed] was extremely helpful in taking on some of the work involved in moving him from NM to AZ, a huge help to me. [name removed is the person to work with if interested in living at Granite Gate.

Dayton place is a bright atmosphere with friendly staff and residents. It exceeded our expectations in every way. I would highly recommend Dayton Place to anyone looking for an Independent Living facility.

When we moved to Five Star in Dallas in September it was our first senior independent living experience….we didn’t know what to expect. From the first moment we were welcomed by our fellow residents and staff. We immediately felt a sense of community that melted our anxieties. The corporate culture and “can do” attitude ,driven by management, permeates the staff. It’s just a great place to live , especially in our senior years. Dining (very good!)and activities have made making friends easy. Making this our new home has been the right decision for us!

I had the pleasure of visiting Barrington Terrace in Boynton Beach several times while considering it for my mother’s potential stay. From the moment you enter you sense that homey feeling. There are activities taking place in the comfortable living room and residents are engaged. I meet the key staff members during my visits, and they were all caring and competent. [name removed], the sales manager, took the time to provide valuable insight into senior living and answered all my questions with patience and understanding. She even invited my mother to lunch which I thought was a wonderful gesture. My mother ultimately decided to continue living at home but [name removed] has continued to stay in touch with me over the past 2 years, regularly inquiring about her well-being. I would recommend Barrington Terrace to anyone looking for a safe and nurturing environment for their loved ones.

Our Dear friend [name removed] has lived at Five Star Residences of Clearwater for about 2 years. She feels happy and safe inside the building, she had been living alone in her condo and the upkeep was just too much. One of the things she likes, is that if you have a day when are feeling alone or down, all you need to do is step outside your apartment and you are bound to find a neighbor or friend to talk with. She also enjoys the theatre after dinner, to watch movies with friends.

I moved in from a community nearby and I love it. In that other community I lived on the 2nd floor and had to use the elevator multiple times a day. Here at Five Star everything is on one level and I can walk right out of the door to my car. I have friends from my old community that moved here too. I even have a relative that lives right down the hall from me. I am very happy!!

I enjoy the fact that I don’t have to cook or do dishes any more. I like that I don’t have to wash my clothes any more. I enjoy sitting I. The living areas with my friends. I really like my caregivers. They are really sweet hearts.

From the first day here, the staff have always been very caring. They have always matched or exceeded expectation in our concerns. Although mom passed earlier this year, dad has been well taken care of. They encourage everyone for group participations and Mass ( you are gonna love the darling chapel)

Excellent service, lovely facility, friendly helpful staff. Supremely clean. Building is a traditional mainline beauty. Family and home-y feel. Excellent value, too. Many on-site services, including salon, therapies, podiatry, eye and hearing exams. Van transportation available. Well organized. Beautiful grounds and walking trail.

After a fall, we were looking for a place in Springfield for my mom to recover. My mom wasn’t ready to commit to a lease as she was hopeful she could return to her home. Brenden Gardens offered an option for respite care, and in touring found an apartment that we felt suited her well. {name removed] and her staff are amazing to work with, and helped my mom fit right in. 3 meals a day with a nice atmosphere and good food, options for meal delivery, amenities such as laundry facilities on each floor, a library, craft room, and even transportation for outings. Therapy services offered on site have really made a difference. She has decided to sign a lease and make this her home. I’m so happy to have my mom at this community!

Devon Senior Living Health Care has been nothing but helpful, accommodating and resourceful with my mother’s transition from home to Devon. The staff is lovely and responsive. I am one of 8 siblings and we have many questions, wants and needs and the health care has been awesome!

All our questions are answered promptly and professionally. Very satisfied with the service we have received. Looking forward to a long relationship. my mother is eager to move in and get started making new acquaintances.

Savannah Square is a warm and caring community. There is something for everyone. We are glad we choose to move to Savannah Square. We also like the fact that we can age in place here and move to assisted if ever neeeded.

I have been a resident for two plus years and have never regretted my choice to move here. I have so many new family of friends since being here! There is no place I would rather be. It is truly a decision, I am glad I made.
