Koelsch Senior Communities

Amber Creek is a very special place. My Dad was a resident for several months. He was sad to leave but personal circumstances caused our whole family to relocate. The entire staff is loving and dedicated to the residents no matter how difficult. I was very impressed with their patience and expertise. I am THAT annoying daughter. Yet, with communication and a little patience on my part as they came to know my Dad, Amber Creek exceeded my expectations. My Dad laughed, sang, danced, clapped and finally even cried. Amber Creek supports individuality and emphasized music therapy along with other stimulating activities. Overall the surroundings are warm, comfortable and bright. My Dad was a loving handful, but he ultimately thrived. Amber Creek is home for an assortment of lively residents with colorful personalities. I enjoyed my visits because of these accomplished, unique individuals and their gracious families. Indeed, my whole family will miss Amber Creek.

The moment I entered Meadowbrook for a tour I felt a sweet spirit about this place. The staff and management seem to have a mission more than a job. They make my husband feel special every time I leave him there for day stays and respite. If/when we need full time care, this will be out first choice. Thank you Meadowbrook for helping us through a difficult time.

The best facility in the High Desert for adult assisted living. Everything from the staff to the food is exceptional. Both my Mother at 96 and my Dad at 97 were taken very good care of at this facility. The staff is very supportive of the family during the Hospice care time. My parents dietary and medication needs were handled very professionally. House keeping was also very professional and cleanliness was done with personal considerations. Overall I would highly recommend Sterling Inn to anyone needing assisted living in the High Desert.

I would like to acknowledge the wonderful and caring work of the staff at Spring Creek in Bozeman. When I needed to move my father into Spring Creek, [name removed] was very supportive and caring in her approach. [name removed], the head nurse has been extremely professional and very thorough in her explanations of my father’s condition and ALWAYS available when I have questions. The health care workers are so friendly and always have a cheerful hello. They always come to help me quickly and are so pleasant and kind. In fact, I can’t fault any of the staff at Spring Creek and can’t express enough how much I admire the work that they do. [name removed]

This is a brand new community. They are keeping mom active with limited exercises. They are always engaging her to join the daily activities they will give them choices. The caregivers really care and it means something to them. The cleanliness is spectacular. They offer a shuttle to get to the doctor or the grocery store if needed. They have motion and light sensors everywhere which make her feel safe. I would recommend this community to families.

Everything here is going as well as it can be. The staff here has very competent young ladies and they are very communicative. I talked with several of them and I feel comfortable leaving my love one under their care. If something were to happen they do well in calling me to inform me. It is a larger facility with about 70 residents and they do have a structured system. They have activities going on all the time.

I toured this facility while looking for a place for my Mother. This community is really nice and looks beautiful. The person who gave me the tour was wonderful and had reached out to me quite often to follow up. She was really helpful in trying to help me find another place for my mom. This was the runner-up choice but for her, however, this is only a memory care facility and my Mother did not qualify. This community is for the more advanced residents. I would recommend them to other families.

I toured this facility while looking for a place for my Mother. This is the best place in the area for a large assisted living community. However, the prices are higher and you pay a lot of money for extra services like assistance getting dressed and going to/from the dining room. It is a beautiful facility and it feels more like a wonderful hotel. The staff members seemed nice but there isn’t a high ratio of residents to staff. This community didn’t fit my mom’s needs but I would recommend them to other families.

Terrific if need a locked community!!!!!

Everything is going good here so far. My Dad has been very calm and not as anxious as he was at a previous place and that’s been a big difference. The staff is amazing here and we’re very happy with them. They offer many levels of care so he doesn’t have to move if he needs additional help. They’ll take the residents on scenic drives and to different restaurants. The other residents that are there (that are still able to understand what’s going on) seem to be happy. The room that he has is a semi private room, but he doesn’t have a roommate right now because their occupancy is pretty low. The room is very nice though and it came furnished. Because there’s a free bed in his room, we can come and visit him and stay the night if we want to which is nice. Housekeeping comes by to clean every other day and they help bathe him twice a week. Overall, it’s been very nice and we’ve been very happy with the care that he’s receiving.

My dad is really happy here. They are taking good care of him. His brother is here also. His room is nice and newly remodeled. They come in weekly and clean and they do his laundry too. He does like to do weekly bible studies. He likes the food it is good but on the salty side sometimes. They have alternate choices if you want something different. Staff is very attentive when he pulls the cord and he also wears a necklace that will call for help, now we just need to tell him it's not for room service(chuckle). They have nurses 24/7 that give him his medicine. It has a nice garden area. I would recommend this community.

Allowing my wife to slowly become comfortable with new environment on an hourly basis(30 hours)before admission in January

The staff at Amber Creek was wonderful with my father, and they really paid attention to his medical needs while he was there. It brought peace of mind to us knowing he was in such great hands. It seems like a sign that we were meant to go to Amber creek because I’m from Kelso, where the community management began, and I also work with a relative of the management family. It was comforting knowing I have that closeness to the community where my father received such excellent care.

We had to place my husband here and the staff id very good. I've seen a transformation in my husband since he got here. He is more engaged, more alert just more interested in things. He is eating well it smells good and looks good. He gets 3 meals a day and then snacks if he wants them. The staff love his attitude and loves his accent. There is a very large secured courtyard area. I would recommend this community.

This facility has been better than I expected. I live quite a ways away and I have been doing all of the planning over email and phone calls. The staff members have been amazing in this transition process. They could not have been any more professional. Every time I have visited my Mother the staff has been very attentive and the facility has been clean. Even though she is in the 4th level of care which is the highest, they offer activities like painting, drawing, coloring, and going on rides through the countryside. I highly recommend this community.

Silver Creek memory care equals total consummate care. Caring employees from top to bottom. Family owned and you feel that dedication the minute you walk in. Great care, beautiful rooms, clean, she loves the food! We were very lucky to find this in Phoenix!

I am writing as a caregiver. I take care of one of the residents there. Staff is friendly, place is spotless and smells great. I usually only work in private homes. Keep up the good work.

My wife is currently in the Day Stay program at Amber Creek and she is enjoying it very much. The staff are all wonderful and caring, the facility is modern and clean and I feel the best interests of my loved one are being served in a caring fashion. They have a very good activities program during the day and they serve nice meals.[Removed] have been wonderful to work with. I would recommend this program and facility without hesitation,

My dad seems to be settling in nicely here. I feel that the staff here are very good with their residents, attentive, friendly and caring. My dad is starting to take part in the activities and going to the dining room for his meals. There's lots of room for him to take his walks and I know he is safe here. I would recommend this community to those looking for a nice place.

I toured this community for the care for my mom. We liked the staff who were friendly. The menu looked good and they seemed healthy. They had a nice list of activities for the residents. We would have liked this community and would recommend that other family your this community for the care of a loved one.
