Five Star Senior Living

I would tell a friend that the community is located in a great place and is priced really well. They welcomed my mom in warmly. They seem to have the typical problem hiring and retaining med staff! Their communication is pretty good. No complaints.

Some days some team members are having bad days or being stressed out. Once again some days can be overwhelming and frustrating. More communication and listening to the residents can help. With the meals and dining, there has been strong improvement in the daily menu and the dining room is clean bright. It would be helpful to have itemized invoice for each level of care/ treatments by staff to understand all that is provided for the residents stay when monthly bills are mailed. For activities, each time I have come to visit, there has been an activity going on. Now whether it is taking advantage by every resident? Maybe as the weather is improving they can have something outdoors for the residents to get sunshine/fresh air.

I'll give a 5 to all except activities, not because I don't think it's deserved but because of my husband's condition he was not able to participate in any so I can't judge it. All the staff, nursing, administrative, meals and maintenance are so friendly and caring. I really appreciate the care and attention my husband received. All these things make the value of cost worth it. One notable thing, there were fresh flowers every day! Morningside staff deserve the recognition. One thing: the support I received during the illness and passing of my husband was priceless.

We moved Mom in about a year ago. She is not a big social buff, however, the employees and staff have continually reached out to her and made this her home. I am so impressed with the Executive Director! She was our first contact on our initial visit and continues to do an exemplary job. Her and her team of employees are kind, intuitive, thoughtful, professional, motivated, and well-suited for this occupation. If anyone is looking for a place to land Mom or Dad, or both, you owe it to yourself to get acquainted with Executive Director and her staff, and take a tour of this facility. A big thanks to all of the staff members who take the time to personally get to know the residents. It is greatly appreciated!

Everyone has been so helpful, friendly and understanding!! So the Stratford Court activities include.....chair exercises, live music at least once a week. They usually have a singer and also have dancers come in. They take residents out on scenic drives. They also take the residents out to lunch They of course have bingo, movies and all different kinds of things...there are only 40 residents so they get extra special treatment.

What we really like about The Gardens are the staff, they make all the difference. They are attentive and caring. Based on our experience so far we would recommend this community to other families.

I am just so impressed with how much the staff genuinely cares for the residents. They make everyone feel like family and have a way of including everyone so no one is alone. My dad is grieving the loss of my mom, but the community whether staff or other residents surround him with so much love, it is making this difficult time for him much easier. Before he did not shower, shave, eat and was isolating himself. Now he has reasons to care. He's not just there. The employees truly care. Special thanks to [name removed] who ultimately is the one who got my dad to move there. My dad was struggling and skeptical to move. It was not an easy undertaking, but [name removed]'s warmth was like a big hug and made my dad feel accepted, safe, important and genuinely cared for.

We did not have much time to find a facility as my loved one was coming out of rehab. After visiting 3 facilities, The Forum at the crossing impressed us the most. The facility is very clean, bright and a little more affordable than the others we saw. All of the staff members were very helpful. My mom was a little difficult at first, but they really took their time with her as she was adjusting.

We are very happy with Leisure Park all around. They just remodeled the rooms and facilities. Everyone there has been wonderful! It's very clean and well maintained. Where mom was before she wasn't much of a joiner. But the motto of Leisure Park is "you don't bloom if you stay in your room." They also have physical therapy on the premises! And a doctor.

I would have liked more information about my loved one's hygiene habits as they avoided showers. I would definitely recommend this facility. They were wonderful. They made sure my loved one was well cared for and included in activities. My loved one enjoyed the happy hours and social activities. The food and waitstaff were also wonderful. The laundry was probably what my loved one was most impressed with.

Morningside at Bellgrade was fabulous. My Dad was there for 1 week, on hospice care, and we couldn't have asked for a better place, or care given to Dad. The level of care was too notch, zero concerns. I have nothing bad to say. It was a wonderful experience from touring the rooms, until Dads last breath.

It is always clean and there aren't any smells at all. The staff are quick to reach out to us when they are having a bad day. Communication is key for elderly care. My wife and I have been very satisfied with Carriage House as a whole. From initial intake meeting up until now, they have gone above and beyond care for my in-laws. My mother-in-law passed last month from dementia. We were worried about how my father-in-law would adjust to being alone after 55 years of marriage. The staff made sure that he was cared for and built up emotionally. It makes a difference when they care about the residents. We can see that they really care

My loved one says she likes the place. However she wishes the dining room was closer to her room so didn't have so far to travel. Because of the distance she only eats one meal a day at the dining hall. She likes the large room. The other place she stayed had a washing machine and dryer in her room. This place does not. So it is inconvenient to wash clothes.

For the meals and dining service (In the beginning the food was great, but the last few months the food has not been good!). Tiffany Court has been the answer to our prayers!!! My Mom is very happy now & LOVES her life at Tiffany Court!!! Based on the experience we have had so far with Tiffany Court we would definitely recommend them to other families. Tiffany Court is a wonderful place for our senior loved ones!!!

Our family had an in person tour with Clarks Summit Senior Living and we thought the tour experience was done very thoroughly. All of the staff members we had encountered were very professional and friendly.

The Terrace has been very good for my loved one. My wife and I are very pleased. My only real complaint is that it can be kind of difficult to get out of the memory unit when you are trying to leave. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The meals are very good.

Overland Park Place had a reasonable price and good food. My loved one moved in last December and is doing well there. The staff communication with the family is good. My loved one really enjoys the meals offered. There are three meals a day and there are choices for the residents to choose from.

I liked the community. I was impressed they don't use the plug-in air fresheners. The community has a warm feeling when you walk in, and the staff are nice.

We had a great tour experience with The Forum at Memorial Woods. This was our second choice. The staff were all extremely nice and helpful, but we just felt it was not the right fit for our loved one. It is a high rise and I think that was the main reason.

I think she is getting really good care here. We chose this facility initially because I liked the staff when I met with them. [name removed] had a great personality and was easy to talk to. The location is perfect for us. The facility itself is also smaller - it just felt right. It is really sweet environment, everyone knows each other and it is very vibrant. The residents and staff are always very welcoming. I would recommend The Gardens of Bellaire to others looking.
