MBK Senior Living

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.

Everything is going great here for my Mom. It’s a fairly new place so they had immediate openings and they’re only half full so there’s a lot of one on one interaction with the staff and the residents. The staff has been easy to talk with and they’ve been able to answer all my questions. They know everyone by name and they really urge everyone to join in and participate in the activities that they provide. They have different types of things to do like bingo, making crafts and small projects. They’ve really got all kinds of stuff. Another thing I like about them is that when my Mom was first there, she’d go in to have a meal and sit by herself but the staff really made the effort to get her involved in meeting new people. The food is good and she hasn’t had any complaints at all. If there isn’t something you like on the regular menu, they have an alternate menu with a lot of options so there’s plenty of variety to choose from. Everything has been kept very clean and I think housekeeping comes by once a week to clean the apartment and then change her linens. This facility is assisted living and they have 5 different levels of care that they provide so the price changes depending on that but what we pay includes all of her physical therapy, medications, activities and food.

My parents had already put money down on a perfect apartment. They were set up to move and then they went and had a meal there. There were so many disabled residents. And my parents are very active, it just wasn't as crisp and clean or up to date as the others we toured. It wasn't a good fit for them.

I toured Kirkwood while looking at options for my mother. I felt that it was a perfect community. I loved the ambiance of the place and the fact that it has an ice cream parlor right when you walk in. My mother loves ice cream, so it would have been wonderful for her. It was just too far away, so I ultimately chose another community for her.

I have lived here for four years. I have found it to be a pleasant experience. The staff have been very approachable with all of my needs. The dining has been a pleasant way to get to know other people and I personally have tried to reach out to new people as they come and make them feel welcomed. We have activities that are well planned and I have participated in all those I was able. We have a great Chef here and some meals are personally appetizing than others but on the whole, we have a great staff in the dining room and kitchen. I think the best thing about The Creekside is that I have become very comfortable with it and when I open my door to my apartment, I am home.

Hello! We moved our mom into Highland Glen in June 20147. I live in the East, so stayed several days to make sure Mom was settled and comfortable. She will soon be 94. We are very pleased with the facility. It is handsomely decorated. I love the paintings. The staff is attentive and caring and appear to love their work. The grounds are inviting and pleasing. The dining room is cozy. The food is imaginative and varied - important for diminished palates. I would live there.

The staff have been very accommodating and flexible. They are staffing the community as they grow. I think the food needs a little help, however dad seems to like it. They do offer some indoor activities at this time. They are looking forward to offering more activities once they have more residents. They put a lot of thought into how this community was laid out. I have already recommended this community.

Moved Mom in 1/2017 from another facility after 5 years of inconsistency. The smaller, home-like environment has been an improvement for her and all the staff have really gotten to know her and treat her with respect and as an individual. I feel very confident that when I am away, she is in responsible hands and is safe. The staff keeps me apprised of everything so there are never any surprises. The snacks are usually healthy and good and meals seem to include the things that most seniors enjoy. The management team is approachable and responsive. I feel very good about the decision to move Mom to Seven Lakes.

Our Mother entered the memory care unit Highland Glen in February 2016. She had Alzheimer's. It was hard decision to have Mom leave her Home and go to Highland Glen, but it was a good decision. She received excellent care. The staff was caring and patient with Mom. After she adjusted, Mom enjoyed singing time, van rides, and other activities that were provided at Highland Glen. Highland Glen was good at keeping us informed of any concerns dealing with Mom's well being. They had different levels of care as Mom's disease changed that helped us in making needed changes in her care. They provided a great service to our family and Mom.

The Firs was a beautiful community with nice amenities. The problem was that it was priced way higher than I could afford. I have a certain income for the year and I can not afford to spend it all on an apartment, but the community was very nice, I recommend it to anyone who can afford it.

My mother lived at the Charleston for four years. She loved it there. She made many, many close friends and especially enjoyed the church services held on site. The dining room staff were kind and friendly and patient. Tracy was so helpful in making transportation arrangements and other special needs for Mother. [Removed] was helpful in making sure her needs were met. Over the years, the activities were fun and plentiful. I often ate in the dining room and enjoyed the company of her friends there and also the kindness of the servers to visitors. Many days I found community visitors playing musical instruments and decorating the doors of the residents for fun. I would recommend this assisted living center for anyone such as my family who could not meet all Mother's needs at home. The staff even made arrangements for her closest friends to attend her funeral. Super staff!!!

Things have been very good so far. The only issue we've had is my mother-in-law moved over a holiday so there wasn't an initial introduction with the directors. She's gone to the new resident introduction and watches movies. The food is great! The housekeeping came in last week. They were very thorough and even cleaned her towels.

This community looked about the best as far as being clean. This is a newer community and has a nicer atmosphere. The food is good and the staff were nice. This community did seem a little high priced compared to other communities in the area.

My Mom who lived at The Palisades for over four years and recently passed on, was very happy to call this "her beloved home". She lived most of her time in the Independent Living part of the community. Through the years she developed many wonderful relationships with fellow renters and staff. When we needed to move her over to the Assisted Living Building the staff went out of their way to make the transition as smooth as possible. Mom loved being a part of The Palisades community. There was always many activities to take part in and she liked the fact that if she needed "alone" time to just do her own thing in her apartment she was able to do that as well. I would not hesitate recommending The Palisades to anyone who is seeking a new home to meet new friends and thrive.

My mother in law is still adjusting to living at this community. She does not like the food and feels the portions are to small. I have eaten there a few times and I do not think the food is that bad. The community is very clean. They have a large exercise room that she likes to take advantage of. I am glad we found this community as it has been everything I thought it would be from my first visit.

Mom had a great respite stay at Cottonwood. The staff treated her nicely. The food was good and they keep the community clean. They allow pets and I would recommend this community. This community is in a little more private location than others we looked at.

The Inn at Greenwood is one of my favorite places to visit and refer. The smiles start at the front door. Friendly staff are there at every turn. The activities are there to keep residents fit and active. The Inn is located in the perfect area in the DTC area: Off the beaten path yet close to all you need. The grounds are beautiful with flowering vegetation. This is it!! If you are looking for that next place to live or bring your loved ones. You picked a great place. Shaun Stone

Mom is getting better every week at Seven Lakes Memory Care. This is a smaller lock down community for all stages of Alzheimer's care. The staff are close by so they can quickly respond to any need. Mom is slowly starting to participate in the daily activities. They have a full medical staff on site including a psychologist.

My Husband's parents moved in a few weeks ago. The staff is very helpful and friendly! They have a nice one bedroom apartment! They are adjusting and making new friends!

My aunt is settling into Almond Heights very well. The food is not always consistent and they run out of the specials but they are able to order off of a side menu. The community is new and they have a lot of state of the art technology. The place is elegant, like living in a grand hotel. She is able to keep her dog there with her. She is involved in activities and went on an outing.
