I was overall happy with Sterling Commons for my dad. I was glad to have nursing staff available to ensure his medical needs were met. They were always aware of how he was doing and were proactive about his medical needs. The facility itself is clean and in good condition. The staff there are very kind and understand the needs of their residents.

Love the facility and how quite it is. The more family orientated they are. I really love the all-inclusive billing. No surprises on rate changes with care level. Called back afterward with a few questions, answered immediately.

My husband has been a resident of Arbor Hills for several years; he is confined to a wheelchair. The decision that a family member can no longer stay safely at home is very difficult. I visit Arbor Hills everyday, usually at dinner time. The staff is attentive and compassionate, and both the Executive Director and the Nursing Director are always receptive to any concerns I may have. I am comfortable with the care my husband receives. Memory care can be really hard, and Arbor Hills does a good job.

Park wood was a very nice community. The people and staff were very friendly. Everyone you passed said hello. It was very nice and clean. Unfortunately it's out of my mother's financial realm.

Canyon Creek memory care facility is a very nice place. It did take my mother awhile to get adjusted. But I feel most of the people that work there really love their job and the residents there. We did have some problems that we addressed; my mother’s hair didn’t get combed, and was wearing the same dirty clothes. Her partials weren't getting soaked at all, and I would go to visit @ lunch time and she didn't have them on to even eat... she complained that she wanted her face washed in the am.. not sure that's getting done even now? Her care seems better now that these issues have been addressed, not perfect, but much better.. The people there could not be any friendlier, really like all of them.. my mother seems very happy with them also.

Things are going good here and my parents are settling in well. The facility has a few different activities the residents can participate in like bingo, cards, and dominoes. The food is good and I personally like it better than another place they were at. They can get as little or as much of it as they want. The building is kept pretty clean and housekeeping comes by once a week to clean their bedding and towels. The staff has been very friendly and I haven’t had any problems with them. They even have a 24 hour nurse. Overall, I would recommend them to others.

The staff here is wonderful and they know my Father by name. They are very attentive and they really care about the residents. When they see someone, they don’t see a check. It is a family run community and that is the main reason why I brought my dad here. The only thing that hasn’t been great is the food. The food they serve is mediocre and the dining service is slow. I would recommend this facility to other families.

My loved one is here and so far, everything is going pretty good. There are things that I’d like to change. The staff is easy to communicate with and seem knowledgeable about the type of care that my loved one needs. I haven’t tried the food but I sit with my loved one while they eat and it seems well balanced and nutritious. The facility itself is pretty clean and they provide a lot of activities; there’s always something going on. The other residents are pretty friendly and outgoing and all of the caregivers are pretty good. The best thing to do is just to come here, sit around and look around for a while so you can see if you’ll like it or not. You can really feel the interaction. It’s a hard job to do, they’re going to make mistakes and they’re not always going to do it the way I would but they’ve been good. I would recommend them to others.

Spoke with Madison House; based on Mom's more than mild dementia, their current facility/staff is not able to accommodate mom at this time. They are currently building a memory care facility that might be a possibility in the near future.

I had to move my mom from another state and we found this community for her close to my house so it is convenient. I love the place but there is always room for improvement at any place like this. The caregivers are friendly and care but they do need some more training. The staff has a high turnover and hoping that will improve also. They need to do more rounds to check on my mom. The head nurse is absolutely wonderful. The place stays clean but in my moms room it could be better. The food always smells so good and looks good the kitchen lady works very hard at serving everybody. This has a family unit feel and that is one of the reasons I chose this and the second reason, [removed] the marketing person is very kind and helpful. I would recommend them to my friends and family.

Very nice, but too big, too overwhelming.

When I first walked in I was amazed at how large the facility was. The lobby itself was about 3 stories tall. I ruled it out quickly because I just felt like it would be too large for my mom. She might have gotten lost there. The front desk personnel who gave me my tour was very nice. The facility looked very nice and clean. The dining hall was more of a restaurant with how big it is. The rooms were nice sized for a studio apartment. And for the activities they offer about the same as other places like having someone come in to play the piano or sing, arts and crafts, and entertainment that come in. Their activity calendar looked pretty full when I saw it. I would recommend this community.

We moved my father-in-law into Cascade because he needed more around the clock care than we were able to provide at home. We already knew people who had relatives there, so it was an easy decision. He was only there for a few weeks, but overall, it was a good experience. It’s an older facility, and they were in the middle of a remodel, but they still kept it very clean. The staff was really helpful and accommodating, and they helped to get him involved in the activities he was able to participate in like church services. Overall, I would recommend the community to others.

I had recently taken a tour of this community for my loved one and I have no complaints of how things had went. The staff where on time to our appointment and made sure to answer any questions I had for them in detail. I thought they had a nice open floor plan and great amenities for the residents. It was just not the right fit for my husband in the end decision.

We had a nice tour of the Park Wood Retirement Community. It was a beautiful, clean and well-kept community. The staff was friendly and helpful providing information regarding their community. They fed us lunch and gave a nice presentation. The residents here need to be more self-sufficient and our loved one needed more care and assistance.

I have recently taken a tour of this community for my mother and I was very pleased with my experience. The staff where lovely to work with and did a great job with the presentation. I thought the facility was beautiful and had a lot of nice amenities for the residents. I just felt it was a little too big for my mom and the hallways where very narrow and long. That would have been difficult for my mother to navigate through on her own.

My loved one has recently made the move into this community and so far I am pleased with how things are going for her so far. The staff have been very kind every time I come to visit and I am comfortable with the quality of care they provide. She has had no problems with the meals and enjoys participating in some of the activities with the other residents. Overall it has been a pleasant experience and we have been pleased.

The community helped me out when my wife was here as a resident. She had a good experience for the time that she was living at the Canterbury Gardens.

We toured the Delaware Plaza and it was a nice and clean community. The staff was friendly and helpful providing answers to our questions. The atmosphere reminded me of more of a nursing home facility. We chose another community based on our loved one's needs.
