My experience with The Woodlake has been great! We chose this facility due to the cleanliness, and positive attitude towards residents and the family. The staff are very supportive and helpful with the emotional aspect of having my mother in Memory Care.

The facility is very clean and well maintained. They have 3 meals and 2 snacks per day. Plenty of activities like Bingo, word finding games etc. They even went on the facility's bus to the pumpkin patch and to see Christmas lights. All the residents are clean and well groomed. They even take the time to put my LO in matching clothes instead of just any old thing in the closet.

I was so happy with the Laurel! Everyone who worked there was involved and communicative. My Mom was always looked out for by many people on the staff. I was so grateful for her to have spent her last few months there

If we could give them a 10 we definitely would! Sonnet Hill community is amazing! They are professional and very caring. The facility is beautiful and very comfortable . We are very pleased with this community.

Very nice facility's and very friendly people. We would recommend The Woodlake to others, They have a weekly sheet of activities for the week, nightly movies also with freshly made popcorn!

My husband is currently a resident at The Laurel at Vernon Hills and this facility is WONDERFUL! The staff is very caring and competent. They are kind and attentive to resident's needs. The facility is always clean and smells clean. The meals are nutritious. The activities are engaging and always seem to engage the residents. This is a great place for your loved ones to be safe and well cared for. It is good to realize that I made the right choice for my husband of 53 years!

When placing a loved one in a memory care center emotions are high. We all want the best for someone that is an important part of our lives. We found The Woodlake to be the right fit. Our mother was experinceing the effects of dementia. She was still somewhat independent and appreciated the enviroment the facility and staff provided. She was happy there and we felt that she was in a safe and caring enviroment. She lived there for one year before passing suddenly. Her last year was surpsingly happy and productive. When we notified that staff of her passing they cried. [name removed] immediately asked if there was anything they could do to help. [name removed] arranged a comfortable and accessible room for the memorial service. [name removed] distributed flyers to residents and was a source of tremendous support for us. We highly recommend The Woodlake for any family looking for a safe & caring environment for a loved one.

We didn't see the day shift staff very much but the night shift staff was amazing! [name removed] and [name removed] were so caring and supported us through the whole experience. I work nights and they would reach out to me to let me know how my father in law was doing. Taylor was so understanding of our situation and everyone was a great team and it showed. The place was warm and welcoming and the residents looked out for each other. I would highly recommend them to anyone.

He is doing very well here. All the residents are clean and dressed. When I was touring facilities, there was one where multiple people were in pajamas in the mid afternoon. The staff greets me by name and everyone knows my husband so I feel like they see him as a person not just a nameless resident. This is especially important to me because he is non-verbal so I feel like they make the effort to engage him. The room is as spacious as he needs, nice big bathroom. They lock it during the day, probably to keep his stuff safe. Other residents have access to their rooms, but I think staff tries to keep my husband engaged in whatever activity is happening rather than isolating in his room. They took a scenic drive this morning and said he enjoyed getting out. It's a beautiful day here today.

The staff at Springs are unbelievable, non-stop always doing what needs to be done and going the extra mile 365 a year. I have been to quite a few assisted living places and as far as I'm concerned, NO ONE DOES IT BETTER THEN, THE SPRINGS OF VERNON HILLS. I appreciate all the hard work that everyone does there.

What we really like about Sonnet Hill is the size. Not too large or small. My mom doesn't have motor skills so cannot do much to participate in the community

I checked around and went and visited many facilities. Some were definitely more upscale that we couldn't afford but once I walked into this place I felt in my bones it was the right place for him. It's not the right place for her but she wants to be with him, so be it. But for my dad, this is close to my home and the perfect place. He actually improved on his assessment since he has been there from a three to a two. Very, very happy, and [name removed] is the very best. Can't say enough about her. Everyone I have come in contact with and have only spoken to is wonderful and caring. I know [name removed] the best because I had to deal with her directly for a while. My family couldn't be happier that he is safe and thriving.

My mother resided at Battle Creek for 18 months until her death. We saw Battle Creek through the days of the pandemic and residential staffing challenges that resulted from it. The personal service and attention to my mother was so consistently terrific and appreciated. Perfect service care is personal and challenging - Battle creeks staff and management were terrific throughout my mothers stay,

The Vineyard at Fountaingrove is a beautiful memory Care community located in the heart of the wine country. The staff are friendly, the food is delicious and the SPARK activities program creates a specialized life- enriching environment that affords self- expression to each individual. if you are looking for a community to call home for your self or a loved one. I highly recommend The Vineyard at Fountaingrove Memory Care in Santa Rosa.

You are the last we had a sing-along yesterday and singing the old Christmas songs that everybody knows was really neat and then doing games and bingo and and we had Thanksgiving dinner together and it was so neat to see everybody enjoying their day and enjoying the fellowship of just being together

I am a Senior placement advisor in the Salem area and have had Great Experiences on every Visit with clients. The staff is very kind and interactive with residents making it feel very comfortable and home like.

When we first moved our loved one into this community it was not what it was represented as - the management was all over the place and the nurse was negligent and our loved one is on hospice right now. However we have worked with the upper management and they have completely turned it around 180 degrees. This is absolutely the best place for our loved one right now. The care staff, the executive director and administrative team are all working together to better the quality of care given to the residents. The executive director [name removed] is a fabulous person and just fantastic to work with and extremely caring.

It was very smooth transition for my loved one.

The Springs of Vernon Hills gets 10 stars, they are wonderful. The staff members there are marvelous - they know everybody, they call the residents by their first name and just take care of everyone they are so friendly. Everything about The Springs has been absolutely wonderful. They have plenty of activities going on - they have a beautiful outdoor courtyard the residents can wander in and out from when the weather is nice. It is just a great place and there is no comparison.

After systematically and carefully researching memory care for my mother and personally visiting and re-visiting seven possible facilities, it was clear that Battle Creek was the top choice. In terms of services provided, staff responsiveness, cleanliness, accessibility to management personnel when needed, etc., all get 5 Gold Stars. My only concern has been some absence of reception staff on the weekends to open the door for visitors. While a phone number is made available for visitors to call on the weekends, and staff have been responsive, when a receptionist is on site, it does greatly facilitate visitor access with less trouble.
