Five Star Senior Living

[name removed] was fantastic in helping us through the process. They seemed to have a good offering of activities. Being that my family member was only there a month, it's difficult to get a complete impression, but I would definitely recommend Forest Heights to others based on our experience.

The staff members at Somerford House are very engaged, caring and super helpful. You can really tell they genuinely like what they are doing and that they are being treated very well. Our loved one always talks about how they do not have down time because of all the different activities they have going on. Based on our experience so far with this community we would absolutely recommend them to other families.

My dad was only at The Haven & The Laurels for a short while, but he was pleasantly happy there. The overall experience was absolutely comforting. The experience of moving him in within itself was scary, because it was something we never thought we'd have to do. The staff at The Haven made us feel comfortable with leaving dad there in their care. We initially had a horrible experience with the first hospice service we decided to use. I would never recommend them again. They never follow protocol, didn't follow up on our complaints, and we were just mortified with how they treated dad. The Haven recommend a new hospice service and encouraged us to fire that old service. The new service turned out to be an extremely amazing company. During that time, The Haven had my dads back and the people there picked up the slack from the previous hospice company. They made sure to give us a heads up on what the first service were supposed to be doing, and the fact that they weren't doing it. When we finally hired the new company, The Haven was there holding my hand through it all - as it wasn't a process I wanted to do all over again. I truly believe that had we placed in him another community, we wouldn't have had the same outcome. I would definitely recommend The Haven & The Laurels in Stone Oak to anyone; and especially entrusting them with a parent. It was hard letting go because dad had been living between myself and my sister. It was extremely difficult to allow someone else to care for my dad. We visited a ton of places and we were happy with other places; but all the other communities were a bit too upscale and bougie. The Haven felt like home, and it also felt very comfortable. I can't express the gratitude I have towards the staff there.

The staff is extraordinarily great and our whole experience there has been wonderful.

We are happy with our experience so far with Five Star Residences. The staff members have been so nice and even though our loved one is in independent living they frequently check in on her which we appreciate. Also the meals and dining service is very good there.

I want to thank the staff, the friends and "family" of my mom [name removed]. She loved College View so very much for the friendship and support of each and every one of you. Fron the wonderful activities to the dining room crew, card playing buddies and just all the love and laughter you all shared with her in the last seven years she got to spend in your lives. May God bless you all and please know how much she looked forward to every day walking down the halls and visiting with everyone. We know you by the stories she told in every conversation we had. Have a wonderful tomorrow and celebrate her life and joys with our family. Sincerely Marlys Henrickson (the middle daughter)

The location was perfect for where we needed our mother in law to be in proximity to our family. When we went for the initial tour visit everyone was really friendly and our mother in law actually saw two people that she knew from years ago that were actually residents there which was a definite impact. Also the availability for outdoor space as far as a balcony was an absolute must.

They have exceeded our expectations in terms of caring and being supportive and understanding the transition period. They have been understanding with our family members as well as our loved one.

This place truly is 5 stars! Our mom adores living here - and tells all of us that every day! She is busy as a bee, with her schedule of classes, activities and celebrations. Her apartment is the perfect size, with weekly housekeeping and a warm, homey feel. The dining room is truly spectacular, with the nicest staff, huge selection (seafood, fish and all!) to choose from and delicious! Our mom has rides provided to her for her doctor appointments, grocery store visits, and other places that she would like to visit. Her apartment has a wonderful porch to sit and play games on, a beach across the street, and a beautiful pool on the water behind the building. All of our family members just love to visiti!!! What's not to love! There is even a physical therapy center on site. Thank you SO much to the warm, caring staff at Five Star for taking such wonderful care of our mom. We, as a family, are forever grateful.

I remember the day I walked into Huntington Memory Care- exhausted, fearful for my Uncle and his well-being and completely unaware of what my next steps should be…and then I met [name removed] the RN and Todd the LPN. Their care and concern gave me immediate comfort and the facility calmed my deep fears on where my Uncle could be placed to ensure his safety and his health. I knew immediately that this was the place and they were going to help me “make it all right.”… Please continue your great work and please accept my heartfelt thank you. Your work and that of your staff is so greatly needed and our community is fortunate to have Huntington Place to meet those needs.

I know I have said this to the staff, but I wanted to say it again. I am so grateful to the management and staff at Huntington Place Assisted Living and Memory Care for the care you provide. Not just for my Dad, but for our entire family. I believe with my whole heart that God led me to make the decisions I made! And I will always remember how diligently and patiently you advocated for my Dad, and remained ever respectful of my Mother. I wish you every success in your business. You can be sure I will recommend Huntington Place Assisted Living to others. Warmest Regards.

We had a really great tour experience at The Gardens of Virginia Beach, I was impressed with this facility and this would have been my top choice. It was more expensive but it seemed like a step above the other facilities that we were looking into. The staff seemed more professional and they had different doctors and care coming in as well. My loved one did not want to move here because the location was too far away from family.

The Forum at the Crossing did a very nice job with their tour and answered all of our questions. This facility was my second choice, I liked everything that I saw.

The main reason my friends chose Five Star Residences of Noblesville was because of how close the facility is to their church that they attend. The apartment sizes are really nice and spacious. What sticks out most to me is the staff, they are all just as nice and friendly as can be. I would highly recommend them to others looking.

We are very happy with everything so far and things are working out great. The staff are super friendly. We take our dad out a lot and visit a lot. When we come back at night sometimes we do have to wait for someone to let us in. They do have a lot of activities provided in memory care such as arts and crafts, they try to do ice cream socials, bowling with blow up pins, entertainment that comes in, service animals weekly, etc. so they are definitely staying busy. They provide calendars of weekly activities so we know what is going on. My dad gets his hair cut and nails trimmed every couple of weeks so they are taking good care of him. I would absolutely recommend Legacy Heights to others.

From the initial tour we were sold on Morningview, the whole atmosphere of the community just really stood out to us. We highly recommend this community to anybody. When we were leaving the community after our tour a gentlemen was coming in with some grocery bags, we stopped him and asked him politely if he was visiting a family member. He proceeded to tell us yes and that how every community has its flaws, but out of his experience this has been by far the best community. That helped us make our decision. Our loved one did not come willingly as most do not, but after about a month our loved one told us thank you for moving her here. At that moment we knew we made the right decision. She is thriving and doing thing we had no idea she would want to do. She has really come out and has made so many new friends. She plays bingo, she participates in their sewing classes, and flower arrangement. They take the residents out on day trips. They have so many different activities that appeal to all the different residents there. She says the meals and dining service is great. This community is as close to perfect as you can get. We looked at other communities in the area and the value here is the best you can get, it is pretty reasonable. At the center of the building is a beautiful park and the surrounding grounds are always well maintained. The residents are able to sit outside in the sun or under their gazebo. They also have a lot of trees and flowers

This is a great place for people looking to secure their loved ones that provide round the clock care with autonomy. I feel my loved one is safer here than living on their own. The staff are really good. The administrator is quick to respond to questions or concerns that are brought to her attention and to speak to the family. All meals and snacks, laundry, care, activities, transportation, housekeeping, the apartment, and utilities which are included in the monthly fee. Bathing assistance and medication management are some of the care that the community is able to provide to the residents. Piano playing, church services, game nights, bingo, family nights, art classes, exercise classes, bird watching, and more are some of the activities for the residents to choose from. The food seems to be good. There are choices given to my loved one the night before and then the food is served the next day in the dining room. If a resident isn't able to make it to the dining room the community will work with the resident in getting their meal to them.

Forest Heights is working out pretty well overall. It's clean. The staff are good. Affordability has been my biggest problem. They evaluated my loved one and determined he would go into assisted living. But then they moved him to memory care after only one day, which unexpectedly caused the price to increase significantly. I've also had a hard time getting the doctor to stay in touch with me.

The staff are easy to work with. The ease of access to bring medical to my loved one versus my loved one having to just through hoops to get to medical is something I have never experienced before and I really like that aspect a lot. For example, my loved one had a bad UTI and Morningside house has access to a mobile emergency room. A fully equipped van pulled up and they set up shop in my loved ones room to help out so that she would not have to pay a visit to the emergency room. I would definitely recommend them to others looking for this type of care.

Fox Hollow has gone out of their way to make it like home and they've been very supportive of my mom and the family as well. communication is on an as needed basis and generally we do initiate that. our loved one has only used the call button once or twice and the first time it was immediate and the second time it took about an hour, but that was on the weekend. I do think there's a good staff to resident ratio, it seems to be a bit less on weekends which is understandable; but aside from that they have ample staff. as far as activities, they offer worship services, bingo, movies, bible study, and arts and crafts, just to name a few. they also offer transportation to appointments and grocery stores; Tuesday-Thursday it's free and on other days there's an additional fee. my loved one especially loves the food, and the family loves how accommodating and nurturing they have been towards us. I would recommend this community to others.
