Hawthorn Senior Living, LLC

There has been a lot of turnover in the administrative staff. Mom says the food is hit or miss depending on the day. She required a lot of assistance when she moved in here, [name removed] and her staff were great! She requires very little assistance now. The residents all seem very happy. Lots of activities to keep them busy, if they want to partake.

What I like the most about Ashwood Meadows is the location and the cleanliness and the food. on the negative, it is more like an assisted living, a lot of people should be in one...Yes, I would recommend Ashwood Meadows to other families 24/7 mgrs are a plus.

It was brand new, it had cathedral ceilings like my mom's home. it was a similarity of what she lived in before just a smaller version. They are on top of everything! All workers are friendly, helpful and nice.

Mulligan Park is an excellent choice for independent living. It has wonderful food and lots of activities. Everything you need is right there under one roof. They even have a swimming pool. You can garden as well because they have raised garden beds for residents. The staff is fantastic always so kind, helpful and courteous.

My Mom is bed bound & under hospice care (since she arrived) so she does not take part in the activities but I see all the activities when I visit her. She does eat the food there - and I have eaten several meals there too. It has been fabulous for my Mom to stay there & have the Better at Home staff bring her food & care for her needs. Hospice is able to visit & has worked with staff of Better at Home for some patients. She is million times happier than the rehab!!! I would highly recommend!!!

The staff is very friendly and helpful The place was updated with new carpets and new paint The food is very good offering multiple choices at lunch. My moms apartment size is great and perfect for what she needs.

Shad’s Landing took the time to FaceTime with me to walk through the facility and answer all my questions. I am from out of town and was trying to help my brother who is local find a place for my Dad. We did a spreadsheet to figure out what was best suited for my Dad and at a fair price. We are happy with the experience so far.

We visited several different places. They have managers that live on site. This was important to us. They also have a first alert neckless that each resident is given, this is important to us. Food was good, staff was polite and responsive to request from the residents.

The experience I received over the phone, spoke with Managers both [names removed] was superb, very courteous, professional and detailed. This has helped our family with sooner decision for our Mother. Giving your Company gratitude for the generosity of such intelligent and helpful individuals. Whom, have directed us as a family. To come a comfortable decision, Thank you, [name removed]

Colonial Harbor is now home for my elderly father and he loves it! The atmosphere is alway cheerful with friendly staff and residents. His desire to be in a community of family and friends has been accomplished and he is thriving in that environment. We, the family, know that we made the right decision when moving him closer to us from his longtime home 300 miles away. What a relief to know that he is in the perfect independent senior living facility. He is in a lovely one bedroom apartment with access to a variety of activities, three delicious meals a day, weekly housekeeping, and an amazing, caring staff!

Great place that made my mom feel welcome. Nice facility where you can add care as needed. Lots of great activities to participate in. Grounds are very clean and allow for easy walks. Pets are welcome and also appreciated.

During our visit we noticed right away how friendly many of the residents were and how much they like it there. Many of whom have been there 4+ years. My concern regarding my mother was how she would adjust after living in the same community and home for 55 years. She’s now been there two months and is absolutely loving it. Before, she was sitting at home alone most days except for church twice a week. She also used to stress about what to buy a the grocery. She seemed to never really know what she wanted. Now she’s out of her apartment 3-4 times a day for meals. Often trying and enjoying foods she’s never had before. She loves playing bingo, beach ball volleyball as well as Tai Chi once a week. They have church services a hair salon. She’s also participates in the occupational and physical therapy. She’s eating better, lost weight which has been good for her hip issues. She’s happier than she’s been in years. I’ve said several times we should have made this decision a few years ago.

We are just glad we found you guys to help us find this place. It was just what I was looking for.

The experience is excellent. We picked this community because of the convenience and cost.

Very helpful and kind people. The facility is very clean. Mom tends to feel sorry for her cleaning person (because she feels she's overwhelmed) and tells her not to do a thorough cleaning some weeks. Of course this employee follows instructions and does the bare minimum. I wish they would insist on doing their job more completely, but it's mostly my mother's fault. All staff have been extremely friendly! She loves[name removed], the activities director! She hasn't required much assistance, but when we have requested they bring her meals, they have been very accommodating. My wife and I have eaten there many times and have found the food to be very good! My mother claims they serve catfish too often and she refuses to go down for that meal, even though we remind her that there are several other options. She's just difficult. The food and dining service are great! I'm impressed with the number and variety of activities offered. The price seems very fair for what's included, based on my limited research of similar facilities.

For meals, sometimes the food portions are too small. Many people like that, but I eat a lot. There are many different activities. The value for cost is excellent.

I would say 5 for everything except I would give administrative staff a 4 because they have had so much turnover this past year (managers are great but they can't seem to keep assistant managers). Also food is a 4, my dad likes a lot of it but definitely has some pretty bad meals sometimes. I really like how this is the perfect fit in between independent and assisted living. My dad is independent but they have 24 hr on site staff, pull cords etc for things like middle of the night health issues, which he has used a couple of times. Otherwise he doesn't need help with daily care. But there are also people there who do require daily help which is provided by outside resources. I know if the day comes that he needs more help he won't have to move. Also the staff seems very caring. Overall he is very happy there and feels at home. The place is not modern or fancy but that is what felt more like home to him.

We would give a 5 on all of these. My parents love the community, the staff, and the other residents. The dining staff and chef are friendly and accommodating. The chef seems to hold a "ask and you shall receive" mentality to his menus and receives feedback well even if it's a bit critical (as some folks have lost their filter). The management staff is influx right now but the new people seem to be as friendly and helpful as the previous staff. So keeping our fingers crossed that they remain that way. My father had a slight medical issue recently and they were quick to step up and help my mom until I could get there. Hawthorne management has been doing maintenance to update some issues which has been nice to see. All in all it's been a good fit for my parents and I feel comfortable with their safety.

My parents were hesitant to move out of their townhome and into an independent living facility until they walked into Cypress Springs. The residents and staff were very friendly and caring from that first visit. The building is up to date and light filled. My parents moved two and a half months ago and now look forward to going to each meal for the delicious food and the conversations with other residents. They have also enjoyed some of the activities. The staff was very responsive and helpful when my mother fell and at other times when they have needed assistance. We are grateful they have found a place to live that is so supportive, comfortable, and has a nice sense of community.

My 90 year old mother was very apprehensive about leaving her home. After touring this beautiful facility, she fell in love with it. Everyone has been so friendly and kind to her. She has found her new tribe.
