Franciscan Communities, Inc

It's quiet, peaceful, clean. Staff is very nice and helpful. We picked this community because our Uncle is quieter and religious.

The nursing staff was excellent. Sometimes we wanted a doctor's opinion, but a doctor wasn't usually available. We needed memory care. This was by far the best value for what we could afford.

There's no reporting system i.e. does my wife participate in activities? That would be helpful to have. The staff at St. Joseph Village seems to truly care about the residents.

The Independent Living community is small, very friendly and clean. More like a home, than a facility. People who work there seem to care and always address Mom by name. The care service is a La carte and very pricey! The business office is always willing to help out with any questions you may have. I don't regret my decision to move Mom there one bit!

For respite care - Overall ok place. Bathroom door didn't close, alert button and room phone didn't work, room facing Main Street, very loud traffic. Management was helpful, but nurse got meds mixed up and almost gave mom wrong meds. Close so friends could visit. Very clean. Bilingual staff. They should have all things in working condition prior to client arrival. I probably wouldn't use them again.

Beautiful facility, many activities to participate in, everyone there is very friendly .

My loved one is currently a resident at Astral at Auburn and everything has been great for her at this facility so far. We moved her here from a different facility where things were not going as well. The cleanliness and friendliness are great. The staff, care services, meals and activities are also great. This facility is awesome. My loved one couldn't be happier. I would recommend Astral at Auburn to family and friends.

What we like the most about St. Joseph Village is that it is smaller and personal and we also like how they have bilingual staff members. We would absolutely this community for someone that wants a smaller environment for themselves or their loved ones.

The staff at Village at Mercy Creek is very friendly and they are all kind to my mother. The thing that stuck out most about this facility when we were initially looking was definitely the cleanliness of everything. I would definitely recommend Village at Mercy Creek to others looking for assisted living.

This is a wonderful place to be at. The staff is so helpful and kind. The residents are cheerful. There are activities for everyone. A bus or van to take us to the doctor and stores.

It is a wonderful place to live, safe, secure, very spiritual, clean & neat, plenty of activities, meals ok, responsive staff, a broad range of care at one facility. I would recommend to other families.

It's been a beautiful transition, from my loved ones condo living. Mostly everyone who lives there, and everyone who works there is friendly and helpful! I have already recommended a couple people to visit for their aging parents. Most importantly, they "check" on my mom twice a day using a medallion (cross) system hung on apt. doors. Also, she loves their dinner food! She's not so happy about continental breakfast. They offer shopping trips, casino outings, bingo, trivia nights, wii games, etc. They offer doctors and hair appointments within the building! Mom is in independent living, but it's nice knowing that when she needs more care like assisted living, it's only a hallway or two away. The place is pricier than others, but it's worth every penny!

This has generally been a positive experience for our family and loved one. There isn't one person I can go to when I have questions or concerns. The have three shifts of staff members providing care, and there is not a consistent person to speak with about my loved one. There are three meals a day served to the residents. There are no activities in memory care.

Our family had an in person tour and it was a really nice community but way to expensive for our loved one. However one thing we really did like about The Village is that if a residents ever runs out of money they will not make them leave they will continue to like the resident stay

This is a nice set up and community. It was too far from family.

This is a nice place to live for you or your loved one. This is a good community. They have activities like bingo, rides to different trips to stores and once the weather gets nicer we will probably go on other trips. I like the staff and they are very nice.

Our family had an in person tour and this community is more Catholic orientated, and our mother is neither Catholic nor religious so we just did not think it would be good fit

We toured Addolorata and thought it was nice. I did feel that the interior needed some updating. I would recommend others to tour this community.

We chose The Village at Mercy Creek because we were looking for assisted living and when we walked in it did not smell. At the time, they had a discount on the room which made a big difference. Everybody here was super friendly during our experience. Unfortunately my parents did have to move out, but we would recommend as long as your loved one can be more independent.

Very nice, like the small number of units/people. It was clean, I arrived at dinner time and there was good attendance. The cost is high compared to others that we have toured with additional fees for phone service. Towels and bedding are covered in laundry service, personal laundry is not, but resident or family member is able to use laundry for personal items.
