A good fit for my mom

We chose The Legacy at Georgetown because we got a very good vibe from the personnel during the tour. The room sizes here are average compared to some others we saw and they do have options on room sizes. My mother complains about the food, but I do think they put out a nice menu with variety. Overall, I would recommend.

Safe During the Pandemic and Friendly Environment

I think the community is doing the job we wanted, in keeping our loved one safe. My loved one's room still isn't set up all the way due to the lock down due to COVID, right after move in. The menu doesn't seem to be offering a wide selection for different dietary needs, according to my loved one. It's a great place, everyone is friendly. The one thing I would make sure to tell people is to scrutinize the accounting.

We chose Sheldon Park because it was specific to my dads needs. The room sizes here are pretty comparable to everything else we saw. My dad is pretty satisfied with the food here and has had no complaints. I would say the best part about the community so far has been the responsiveness that the staff members have to issues that arise. I would recommend this community to others.

Great place for a loved one!

We really liked how when we came to first visit this community, all the residents seemed really engaged with each other as well as the staff. They were doing things all the time. The rooms are very comfortable at this community, however some of the room styles are more difficult to decorate but you just have to get creative. The rooms were all kept very clean. This community has a lot of natural light and is very airy. Our loved one is very happy with the food, she really enjoys all of it. We have been very pleased with this community

Courtyards At Berne Village

Every time I have visited, there is at least one of the staff that is constantly cleaning, including my mother's room. They do try to bring activities in for the residents, recognizing birthdays, and other things to make the residents to feel at home. The activities director is phenomenal, always smiling and positive! The food is adequate, although sometimes it seems like the memory care building is getting leftovers from the main building. The staff also does bring snacks around or drinks if the residents would like. In most situations, the care giving staff is doing a great job. They have really tried to make the best of my mother's situation and behaviors. We wish there was more communication from the staff regarding my mother's care, something like a regularly sent overview of my mother's health and well being.

A good residential facility

They take the residents out but it is not really well advertised and they could offer more outing that are appropriate for all of resident's needs . The are always rushing during activities in the building . They just don't have enough staff support for activities. It's a nice residential facility. My mom is happy and the other resident seem to be fairly happy there. My mom says food is good. They have a nice outdoor patio and they offer underground parking for the residents.

This is a very beautiful, clean facility. They offer assisted living and memory care units. We were impressed with the staff, as they seem to be very attentive to the residents-even when no one is looking, and the residents seem very happy. We would definitely "drop in" (without an appt.) at a few different times of the day, just to check up, but we would do that anywhere before making a decision.

Memory Care
November 3, 2019

Larger studio, current open one is on a corner w/2 windows so it would be an extra $100/month, $5600. Level of care 1-$450, 2-$900, 3-$1300, 4-$1800, 5-$2250. Has 2 closets, pretty spacious. Residents can leave doors open or closed. Not a lock down, alarm goes off on exit doors not key card access. Has been open for 20 years, added onto so some differences in rooms. Smelt a little stale (like urine) in the first section. Assisted living and Memory Care are combined together. Have a private dining room for patients who need lots of assistance for privacy. (She said she never charges the $2,250 so the max would be $7,400 plus purchase incontanace products.)

A Happy Place

this is a very active hands on assisted living operation which also offers independent living which I am currently a participant in. The activity room and recreation services dept are excellent. There is transportation to and from appointments available but only on tuesdays and thursdays They have entertainment 2 or 3 times a week and the same with moves although they don't have a theater, it's just shown in the Grand Room. The meals are OK but menus are limited. This is a very Happy, Bright place. Everyone including the Operation manager are readily available and great you by name when they see you. They one short fall is the lack of an RN after 4 pm and weekends.

The staff members I interacted with were very friendly. The front office personnel knew the residents by name and their different personalities. The Memory Care areas had a closed in feel. Lots small rooms which felt a bit like a maze. I did notice a urine smell in the halls. The semi-private rooms had a feel of some separation as the beds were not set up right next to each other. This was comfortable. The shared bathroom area was small and didn't lend itself to much personal space. The staff was very knowledgeable about dementia and Alzheimer's. They strive to accommodate the different personalities of the residents. There are even monthly informational meetings on caregiving and aging that family can attend.
