MBK Senior Living

When I was looking for a “Place for Mom” I was given several names of places that might meet our needs. I visited most on the list. From the moment of my first contact I felt good about Mariposa Point. Mom has been a resident in Assisted Living for over a year and I still feel that it is the very best place for her. Each senior and family brings basic as well as unique needs to a group setting. I have felt that our needs and concerns have always been respectfully addressed and have been met in a well thought through resolution. I have enjoyed participating in special events and family meetings and education. Being included in such events has allowed us to help Mom develop a sense of belonging to a community of staff and residents. We have seen frequent staff turn over, perhaps more frequent than we would like but there are several really great team members that have been there the length of Mom’s stay. Mom counts them as friends and they brighten her days. There are many new facilities opening in our general area, some much more convenient in location for me. I have visited a few and marveled at what they have to offer but even so I leave feeling good about keeping Mom where she is at Mariposa Point. The bottom line is, even if she feels they have green beans too often or she doesn’t always get a good seat at bingo she is safe, cared for, respected and happy.

My Mom recently moved to the Villas and it has been a hard transition from her own home of 50 years to a one bedroom apartment. However, the staff at the Villas have been so amazing during the past two months - caring, helpful, cheerful, kind and patient with her initial "lost-ness". We know that she will eventually settle in and think of the Villas as home. Her health has improved greatly with the careful and consistent oversight of her medications and her diet. We are so grateful to everyone at the Villas for taking such good care of my Mom!

Seven Lakes Memory Care has a very caring staff who works hard to make each person in the community feel valued and get what they need despite their dementia. They work with the families and have open access at all times to see their loved ones there. They communicate well when the family isn't there to let them know how their loved one is. I have recommended Seven Lakes to others.

Northgate Plaza is very favorable. I love the anytime dining, the staff members, all very helpful and pleasant to be around. One area for improvement would be clearer guidelines during the move-in process.

they helped me place my grandma in the perfect place to call home and follow up with me even afer she was plc d to make sure that she is still happy there !

The Commons is a very nice place to live and the people are very kind and caring. The level of care can be altered depending upon need. I am very pleased with this place.

We've lived at The Firs for 5 years now. Many changes (all for the good) have been implemented in that time. All staff here have been exceptional – everyone knows our name and habits very quickly. Dining room and kitchen crew, maintenance and activities make us happy and a part of The Firs Family. In particular, the young adults from high school that serve us in the dining room, many remain working here until graduation and then move away for college and come back for holidays and summer! Any newcomers learn from them and we get to make new young friends again. [Name removed], our Director has been pivotal in making so many positive changes, providing us with an all day restaurant, among many other things. Our maintenance guys ([name removed], [name removed] and [name removed] – our very own MBK) are always on top of things and rapidly tend to our residents. The activities director, [name removed] is always listening to us and trying out new innovative & fun things. Our concierge, who knew all the building secrets for so many years, recently left us to raise her family, but was replaced with little [name removed] who is a talented individual that is filling the position quite admirably. [Name removed] & [name removed] seal the deal they always want to make us happy. He helps in any way and lends his technology smarts a ton for everyone. Her friendliness is contagious. Busy with organizations in the area, President of Senior Action Network and local fundraising, she leads exercise class every morning for the residents, as well as hosting the Saturday morning Coffee & Conversation. She routinely helps out in the dining room and residents are always seeking her out for help in so many ways. [Name removed] is our lynch-pin at The Firs. The building and exterior grounds are well maintained and quite beautiful. I think I'll go out and enjoy them!

SC Villas by the Sea is a perfect place for my mom. They have outings, bingo and friendly staff. They have birds, a pool, amenities for families. The residents are free to do their own laundry. It's a good place for seniors that are mobile and social.

My mother has been a resident of The Montera for a few months now and I can say that she has been receiving excellent care. The staff is always friendly and accommodating. I needed to have mom checked on today and that was done within 5 minutes of my call. It is a comfort to know that she is in good hands at all times. The programs and activities are very comprehensive and enriching. From my experience they seem to add new and interesting activities every month, such as wine tasting. The management is very approachable and there is a high level of caring about the residents.

Very enjoyable living. Great food! Activities optional. Nice folks and staff is excellent.

Even better than expected.

My husband has been here for over two years and has really enjoyed living here. They have been attentive to his needs and have kept me informed when something happens. The activity directors are great! The staff on the memory care are terrific and attentive.

My husband & I were so lucky to find this home for his Mother. During her 3 years there, our expectations were exceeded in every way. It's not what I remembered from the nursing homes I visited in my childhood.... thank goodness! It' s decorated so beautifully, smells nice & the food is really good. Everyone we encountered there was very compassionate & accommodating. They have ever changing activities & events for the residents. When my Mother in Law passed in her sleep, the head administrator made a point to come out to our car to speak with us well after hours. She was actually crying with us. What a wonderful place to live!

I am reviewing this for my aunt. At first she was not too happy, not with the facility, but with the situation. She doesn't feel, like so many that she needs to be there. However she is getting very forgetful and either forgets to take her meds or doubles up on them, so the medication management has been greatly appreciated. She actually loves the facility and her little apartment in the garden area, I am much more at ease now that she is there. I know she is safe and she is getting her meds regularly.

2 staff present all the time. Very caring . I visited 5 homes before selecting this one, and it was the cleanest, most impressive and offered 2 person staff. They have been on top of any and all medical issues and communicate often and timely with me for any issues concerning my sister's needs.

My mother-in-law was a resident here for about six months. My wife and I were very pleased with every facet of care and service that we received. The staff treated mom with dignity and respect from the time we arrived through hospice care. We highly recommend Seven Lakes Memory Care as a safe and caring place for your loved one to reside.

The entire staff at The Firs are compassionate and caring and they go out of their way to make sure all the residents are safe and well taken care of. In addition to the full time staff, the high school kids that work in the dining room are amazingly compassionate, polite, respectful and hard working. The facility itself is always clean and quiet and there is always an opportunity for social interaction in-house or during one of their off-premises events. The building is a contemporary Northwest design and very warm and comfortable as well. Thank you for taking such good care of my mom.

I have lived at The Hillcrest for a year and find it delightful, totally fulfilling my expectations. Amenities not present in other local facilities include a full kitchen and complete laundry room in each independent living apartment, and an indoor parking garage. Very impressive to me is the rural atmosphere in the middle of the city - lots of open space in the historic area of Loveland with safe spaces to go for long walks. Staff is very attentive to the needs of residents and all employees quickly recognize every resident by name. Moving here from a great distance, I’ve found many new friends and discovered that residents genuinely care for each other. The dining room offers a wide variety of delicious food. Actvities are offered daily to meet a variety of interests. Love this place.

The Charleston has been a great home for my mom. My dad passed away just one week after they moved in. Even though it had been only a week, there were already people who cared about my mom. The night my dad died, about 10 p.m., just when we were getting ready for bed, there was a quiet knock on the door and one of the senior CNAs came to see if mom needed anything, to give her a hug and let her know she cared. She had come after her shift was over. It wasn't part of her job, it was just who she was. That's only one example of the kindness and caring that has been extended. The food is good, the people are kind, the hairdresser makes my mom feel pretty and we, as family, sleep better knowing she's in a safe place.

We’ve been very pleased here. The staff is really pleasant. There have been a few mix-ups, but they try real hard to make things as convenient as possible. The food is unbelievably good and the chef is just excellent. The facility is kept very clean and housekeeping comes by once a week to clean the apartment and wash the linens and towels. There are plenty of activities available with several events a day. Overall, it hasn’t been totally perfect but they’re certainly trying.
