Peregrine Senior Living

My mother has been living at Atria Shaker for about 8 months and so far it has gone quite well. The staff are very friendly and helpful. The food is good and the medicine she needs is delivered timely. All seems to be running smoothly. One of the big surprises was figuring out that the nurses on staff there are not allowed to do anything medically except provide prescription medicines. My mother fell once and had a big bruise with a small cut. They were unable to provide even an ice pack or neosporin without her doctors orders. It seems that some things should be able to be done such as the basic things you would do if you were home.

My mother has been at Peregrine since April. In spite of other bad reviews, I am very satisfied with the care she receives. Nice people work there and it is always clean and bright. Plenty of activities.

Peregrine Colonie is always bright and clean. Staff is friendly and seems to really care. They also take them on trips from time to time. A broad range of abilities of the residents makes the community better I believe.

Peregrine is a wonderful place. I have the privilege of observing the staff caring for our loved ones numerous times a week. They are caring and compassionate with a strong focus on the comfort of our family members. I would recommend this facility to everyone. The only issues are staffing levels and training. Administration needs to step up hiring as they sometimes lack coverage if someone calls out but those girls get things done. The memory care unit needs more individuals who are trained to handle the unique behaviors of the dementia and alzheimer inflicted individuals. I appreciate the staff as they work very hard to provide a homey and loving environment for our family members. Staff is friendly and easy to talk with and I have no reservations when I have to walk out the door.

My father needed this place for a recovery type period after two major surgeries and cancer diagnosis. The staff was very good. The food was excellent. The facility was always clean. His room was very comfortable. There were a lot of activities, but our dad didn't opt for them. But I was very impressed by the list and variety. The administration went above and beyond to ensure a smooth transition and welcome into the facility. He was there about two months and was able to go back to his home. We really appreciate the support Peregrines gave to us at that critical time for our dad. It was a relief to know he was in a good facility.

A wonderful community but they just raised their prices and are now beyond our price range and the assets my Mother has left.

I was impressed by the facility. We are considering this center.

Atria is a good place for my mother in law. She is wheelchair bound due to Parkinson's. She is also in the beginning stages of dementia. The staff ratio to residents is perfect because they are able to be there for them quickly if needed. Their rooms are cleaned twice a week as well as laundry. She loves playing bingo and scrabble and rummy which they have quite often. She has only been there about 10 days but seems to enjoy it.

Atria is a nice senior living facility. The staff was warm and welcoming. There is an obvious level of personal care that I experienced from every person that I met with. Atria offers many ammenities and activities. The facility was clean and comfortable.

We had a very nice tour of this community. It is a very nice facility with kind people. The tour went well, we did not have any problems. The community looked great, everything was very well-kept. The staff was very kind, and helpful. They treated us well, and all our questions were answered. It was not the right fit for my aunt, but we had a good tour overall.

My love one is receiving good care since his move to this community. The staff in this facility is very good at what they do. We know he is safe, and in good hands. The community looks great whenever we come to visit. His room, and the community are well-kept. There are plenty of activities offer, and good meals provided. This is a community I would recommend, it is working out well for us.

I was looking for a community that has everything included. This was the one we found and we are doing. It is a smaller community but it has many activities and meals that are nice.

My mother loves it here in this community, but my father is still taking some time to adjust. We do feel comfortable with their move here. They like it here, and my mother is really enjoying her time. The people are wonderful, and we know they are in good hands. This is a nice community, and I would recommend it.

I liked this community when I visited. The director was nice. the community looked clean and they offered daily activities. This community seemed more for assisted living and we were looking for independent living.

It seems to me that either disgruntled (former) employees, persnickety residents, or children of the same who think it's a hotel would tend to rate low. The job, no doubt, is one of the most challenging to anyone, e.g. St. Mother Teresa, but the people there are as good as they get. A have a family member there and am constantly challenged by passive aggression and frequent memory loss. Sometimes it's a win/win and other times not in the least. I can only imagine what it's like to be confronted and resolve the most minor of issues multiplied by 100 residents and twice as many family members on a daily basis no less! My family member is now 'content', safe, housed, fed, and well cared for. Who can do better?

What we liked the most about the Atria Crossgate was that it was all one level. It was a very nice place and everyone was friendly but it was more expensive than other places. Also, it was not in the location we wanted.

My aunt is doing very well since her move to this community. They have a wonderful staff at this facility. They have been very caring, and helpful. It has been a positive experience working with the staff. They have complete menu available for the resident. She has gotten involved in a few of the activities they offer. She is pleased with the meals, the food is good. They are providing her with great care, and I would recommend this community.

My parents are super happy with the staff that is here. They are very good to them. The community and my parents apartment is always clean. My parents have been getting involved with everything that they have to offer. The only thing that they do not like is the food. It is way too salty for them and at times they have to send it back for something else.

Nice place, very clean. A bit expensive. Near a hospital.
