Jaybird Senior Living

I was at Arlington Place of Red Oak for a short stay. In that amount of time, everything at this facility seemed fine in every aspect! I think that everything was great. I would recommend this facility to others.

I would not place my Dad in a place where he didn't feel comfortable. He has been doing great since coming there. Interaction with staff has been wonderful.

We found that the staff are all very friendly at this facility. They answered all of our questions. What we liked best about this facility is that it felt like "Home". I'm sure other facilities would also do a good job of taking care of my loved one, but this one did not have an "Institutional" feel. I would recommend this facility to family and friends.

We toured Arlington Place at Oelwein and it was great! The cleanliness, friendliness, staff everything was great. The only reason we did not select this facility was due to location.

I toured this facility and it was a very nice place! It's in a great location and they offer lots of activities.

My mother lived at Artis Senior Living for a little over a year and a half. While there she received excellent care. The facility is small so they know everyone by name. It is clean, bright facility with single rooms for each resident. They have a wonderful program of activities as well as events for family participation. We enjoyed many Sunday picnics with mom and the Artis family of caregivers. These outdoor events in their garden area were well planned and gave us the opportunity to interact with other families and residents. My mother really enjoyed living at Artis and I always knew she was safe and happy there. Mom recently passed and it was a great relief to me that she could stay there while in hospice care. Gentiva Hospice worked with Artis caregivers to provide mom with a quality end of life care. I can not say enough about how positive my experience was with both Artis and Gentiva. I am so grateful to have had all of your help, guidance and care for my mother.

The staff are wonderful people that took great care of my father that was diagnosed with brain cancer one month earlier. The staff on hand were so caring and helpful with any thing that needed to be done to make father more comfortable the last month of his life. We really appreciated everything they did for us both.

We had a very good tour experience at Garnett Place. I found the facility itself to be nice and all of the staff and residents were welcoming. When we were looking initially, it was for both of my parents. My mom did not need any care but my dad needed quite a bit. We ended up changing our focus to just my dad, so therefore the facility types changed which is ultimately why we did not choose this facility.

The initial meeting was great. Nice tour with a lot of useful information. [name removed] answered all our questions and some we didn't even think to ask. We spent almost 2 hours talking with him. Really eased our minds. We have really enjoyed visiting mom. The staff are all so friendly, it is always the same people. We go during the day and it is always the same 3 nurses and they are outstanding. They are great with communication and always let us know what is going on and are responsive to her needs. The pay is all inclusive, it increases as the care increases. The layout is great and easy to navigate. I would absolutely recommend them, I think it is one of the best in the area.

My loved one seems to be happy. They call if there is any issues. My loved one is eating well, is more relaxed, and seems comfortable. They are taking good care of my loved one. They were not happy at the previous facility. We picked this community, because it's a smaller community, it was close, and the staff is very aware of the situation. The residents are friendly.

Everything has been great so far. Communication with the family has been really great. They've responded well to my loved one's requests. The staff is always very responsive to her and her needs. My loved one enjoys the activities, especially the music. Housekeeping is done weekly and I've heard no complaints. They take care of her medications and get them to her daily. I would recommend this facility to friends and family.

Overall I think it is a really great place and I would absolutely recommend them. The biggest complaint is the food, she does not like it at all. The vegetables are hard and it makes it tough to chew. Same thing with most of the meat. The deserts maybe only a quarter of the time are good. The food is something that definitely needs improvements.

They communicate well with the family, they treat the residents well, and they have a variety of activities for the residents to partake in. We picked this community, because of the intimacy and price.

My experience has been awesome. Generally, every person has bent over backwards to help me with what I need. I'm so very pleased with Brown Deer.

I would recommend and have recommended this community to friends. When I have an issue the staff is quick at resolving any issues when they occur. My loved one is happy here.

Artis of Bartlett is a great place. I'm very happy with the choice we made for my mom. The facility setup is nice - it's all on one floor, and it's split up into "neighborhoods" that tie into local areas around Bartlett. The staff have good communication with me, and also with each other. They use radios for effective communication within the facility. There is definitely enough staff to care for the residents. They have excellent activities and keep the residents busy and engaged. Overall I've been very pleased with the facility and the people at Artis.

Wonderful staff! Beautiful amenities and atmosphere!

They are very friendly and responsive. My loved one likes the food and seems happy. They offer activities dailiy. We picked this community because, it was less expensive than other places.,very clean, homey, and a smaller community. Anytime you have a question, they are right on top things. Overall, the staff is wonderful.

Our family had an in person tour and we loved this community, it was our loved ones first tour and everything was fantastic. However for our loved one it was just an older architectural style with more wood grain work so it just did not feel very bright
