I visited 3 other retirement locations, but I'm so pleased I chose Parkwood. I have lived here 1 year and 3 months, and for me, it is just what I wanted. We have a special staff of people who make it work well for the residents by serving good food and keeping us busy with choices of great entertainment and plenty of activities and games. Our friendly management, kitchen, and maintenance team are why people like Parkwood and why they say you cannot find a better home than Parkwood.

Tour scheduled for [date removed] @ 4:00 pm Dad and I were very impressed overall, Room is a little small but had a nice bay window. Lighting good, atmosphere pleasant, saw lot of smiles from both residents and staff. Like Memory Care program.

My mom is at Assisi at Clare Oaks, and I couldn't be more pleased. What a wonderful environment you have provided for her. It looks and feels like home; clean, personal touches and a caring loving staff. In particular I want to mention the nurses [names removed]. They both are attentive, kind and respectful to all the residents. I personally have stories to tell about their professionalism, and would love to tell them all. Also, you have a wonderful activities department and staff. Every time I come to call on Mom, she is being mentally stimulated, entertained and included in an activity. WOW! Thanks for including her and keeping her engaged and mentally alert. I personally would like to recognize [names removed]. These two ladies are charming, kind, respectful, happy, and just a joy to be around. Their love for their job shows in their work. Their love for their patients show in their faces. This world needs more people like them in it. Again, I could tell you countless stories of their GIFT for this job. Thank you for making mom's life at Assisi Clare Oaks a quality life.

From day one- the staff and administration took care of mom was first rate. Thanks for taking care of her like she was your own.

My mother ([name removed]) has been a resident of Freedom Village of Bradenton, Fl for three and a half years. She turned 100 years of age [date removed]. Special thanks to [name removed] / director of assisted living and memory care and [name removed] / programs director . I could not be with my mother before her actual birthday. The day prior to her special occasion the staff presented her with flowers, two certificates reflecting her achievement, balloons and of course the singing of Happy Birthday. My son and I were overwhelmed, as we walked with my mother down the hall. Every staff member stopped to sing Happy Birthday to her. I would recommend Freedom Village of Bradenton to anyone who may need their services. The professionalism and communication is second to none.

I was very impressed with the tour and appreciated the attention and courtesy of the staff member giving the tour. Her name was [name removed]. The facility was very nice and the amenities were perfect for the needs of my family member.

Monticello West has gone above and beyond to help our family at every turn. Our father was diagnosed with Alzheimer’s and our mother was no longer able to care for him at home; her health was declining, too. Monticello West provided support and education for us as we tried to navigate this difficult transition for our parents. There have been many challenges and their compassion and support has met us at every turn. We are grateful for the care and concern they have given both of our parents, working hard to accommodate their every need. This facility has life, love and laughter throughout with many long term staff members giving their all. It is evident that our parents have had excellent care on their watch. Thank you for your dedication and the peace of mind we have knowing our parents are in good hands. Sincerely, [names removed]

Love, Love, Love the place. Beautiful. Would not think you were in an assisted living facility. Decided to go with this place.

Very nice place-not much visitor parking but I really like the layout and the rooms were wonderful. Would take my mom for a 2nd visit

The Executive Director is very experienced, licensed and a compassionate, Friendly, approachable communicator with high standards for her team. The head nurse is very accessible and caring. The rest of the team is also very professional and kind. Great Square Lake and Woodward location-exceptionally clean community-just opened in 2019-very reasonable rates compared to others in the area-glad I found this place after being disappointed elsewhere. Highly recommend you tour this place! And, very spacious apartments with granite countertops and roomy, walk in showers too.

We have live at the Clarendale for six months. This makes our third retirement center that we have lived in. The staff, food and amenities are all five star. Stop by and check the place out for yourself. You cannot read the Clarendale by driving by.

[Name removed] is the most caring staffer. We were impressed in every way; however, I believe my parents would be overwhelmed and out of their comfort zone.

I chose this Senior Living because of the cordial staff and residents and the many activities offered every day.

This is my first time here and I haven't seen another place as nice as this. Very nice people. I was invited to lunch with my old friend and the food was fantastic and wait staff very caring.

Clarendale is a very pleasant location to live. I have lived here since the end of [date removed]. The employees all display a positive attitude and usually have a smile on their faces. Your dinner menu needs to be varied with a new menu selections so a guest feels more positive about their experience visiting your dining room.

Hospitality is a core value at StoneRidge and that is evident in the Dining Room. Watching the Dining Room Team is like watching a ballet that I call ‘Collaborative Coordination’. The Dining Room staff and management (who step into the server’s role whenever needed) work together seamlessly. The staff strives not only to meet the expectations of the residents but to exceed them. Each day: (a) residents are greeted warmly, by name and with a smile; (b) the servers frequently anticipate our wishes (habits!) and help us with the menu; (c) they pay attention to the details; and (d) the servers always ask “Is there anything else I can do for you?” In addition the Dining Room Team members support each other in a ‘collaborative coordinated’ manner that is evident, particularly when it is busy. For example when a server is not busy with her/his assigned tables it is not uncommon for them to: (a) pour water for residents just seated; (b) clear dishes from a table finished with the initial course; or (c) ask a busy assigned server if she/he could help: by (a) taking orders for and serving drinks to residents just seated; or (b) ask the assigned server if it would help if she/he took the orders for dessert then cleared the dishes and served dessert and coffee. The Dining Room Team provides enjoyable and responsive service. The ‘Collaborative Coordination’ among servers results in an extraordinary experience for residents, guests and Team members!

I originally toured in Sept. 2018 for Respite Care and they were remodeling their Memory Care unit so I was not comfortable leaving my husband there. I thought the manager, [name removed], was very helpful and I toured again in November 2019 and decided this is the place for my husband to stay. He just started [date removed] and the transition went very smoothly.

There are so many things we liked about this facility: lots of care put into the design for Memory Care residents. There’s a town [removed] Street with different areas for activities, music, movies, exercise class, a fireplace seating area, a snack area/seated activity area, a spa room where residents can take a bath in a soothing & safe environment, and several other smaller & quiet areas to roam and sit. The staff seemed happy and involved, which translates to the residents. There was a caring & homey feel to the place. Updated rooms, good sixes for either single or double occupancy. 2 smaller intimate dining rooms for each wing of residents, and just a short walk to Main Street area which is really well-thought out so no one is far or cut off from others. Definitely one of the contenders for us in our choice.

I've been here 1 1/2 years and I love it. The staff is wonderful. I feel very safe and secure. The residents are very friendly. It is close to a lot of shopping, doctor, dentist, etc. The kitchen has a lot to be desired. The food is pretty much OK. But it takes a LONG time to get it.

This is a beautiful facility that has a very warm, inviting atmosphere. Our contact was very welcoming, friendly and took time to show us each of the different levels of communities. This would be great for Independent Living or Type A Assisted Living where there is no need for outside doors to be secure. They did have all levels of care, but was outside of our budget.
