Gardant Management Solutions

In general I think Village at Westerville is a nice place. The facility itself is generally clean and well kept, and the staff is friendly and helpful. However, my loved one is having a little trouble settling in. She says the staff will come into her room unannounced, and while I understand some amount of this is necessary in an assisted living environment I think they could work with her a little to find a solution she is comfortable with.

I toured this community while looking into senior living options for a loved one. Compared with a few others I saw in the area I just was not impressed with West Park Place. The facility seemed dark and gloomy inside, and I hardly saw any other residents out and about during my tour. I also did not like that the meal plan only included 2 meals a day.

You walk in and it looks like a hotel, a very large entry foyer. We didn’t see any of the rooms or any of the residents. We saw one atrium with like five women sitting around having some kind of discussion exercise. It was very clinical. The person who did our orientation – the initial sales representative – was very uninformed. The guy at the receptionist desk was kind of checked out.

Facility was acceptable. It was clean and staff friendly. I thought the decor was old, dim and un-inviting.

This is an older community. They would have liked to put Mom in assisted living on the third floor. Not a small enough setting and reminded us of an older hotel instead of a warm setting. Paula was excellent but would not be a first choice.

What struck me during our tour was how clinical this place felt. Everything was shiny and new, but also felt cold and soulless. It looked like the care they provided was fine, but it wasn't the sort of atmosphere I would want for my Dad. Another issue to be aware of is the lack of diversity in this facility. I believe that my father would have been their only African American resident. I noticed this was the case in many of the facilities we toured as well, so the parent companies of these facilities should consider looking into how to broaden their appeal to other communities.

The Management/staff is friendly and responsive to your needs. The facility is clean and offers many social activities and events. It appears to be secure and safe.

I was very excited at first. My contact with Paula was wonderful She was very understanding, kind and helpful. However, once my relative moved-in, I did see another side of The Fountains. There was definitely a lack of communication, both internally ( management, nurse and cna's) and externally(doctors and myself). It took some time and effect to get things smoothed out. (Details of which I will not go into), I feel better now, but I still have to stay on top of things. Honestly, I think that is something they are not used to. I have the feeling that most families do not get too involved once their relative moves in. I do have to admit this is my first experience with assisted living facilities so it is hard to rate them without the knowledge of how other facilities operate.

No ability to assist with colostomy care even if Mom learns daily care. This facility may not be appropriate even if colostomy reversed due to memory issues becoming more significant during illness.

Nice lunch not avail, small 1br, cable not incl. Have to pay full fee until va comes in . Has trial day mom can stay and try out.

Toured with director. Very impressed with "people-centered" program, bang for buck. Not so much with upkeep and spaciousness of apartments.

7-2 just opened 2/10. very large apts w/full kitchen, lg bath & walk-in closet. limited rehab, no skilled nursing. memory care is identical in style, nice furnished studio. NOT same managing co as Prestwick & Windermere.

clean, active, a bit clinical.. very friendly. Toured on 1/13

Information does not seem to service alzheimer patients with total assistance needs.Called they do not service severe alzheimer patients.

Toured Cambridge house with boys. New location, so that was positive. This also is a medicaid based facility. not as convenient a location for church....walking etc.

This is a nice facility. My concern is whether my father will get the "assistance" he needs to get up and come down to eat meals.

We did not care for their set up. We didn't feel mom would do well here.

Newer facility, nice and clean. Staff seemed friendly. Layout ok for mobile residents but could be long haul for dad depending on room assignment. Meals, barber, some grocery items available on site.

This was lovely but it is on the border of my geography plan. It is doable and it is close to where my husband works. It has the best size rooms This by far has the best size rooms and the bathroom entrance is from the bedroom, which my mother is used to. I loved it but it is on the edge of my geography plan. I wish it were a bit closer. I wouldn't mind the distance but Mom might.

Very friendly people and fun activities. Apartments are okay, but would like own washer and dryer.
