Priority Life Care

All of the workers are wonderful and very kind. Residents do not seem to be happy with the food, but I am sure they are doin the best that they can.

They seem to have a big turnover in the staff which is concerning. The food is just not good. It seems by the time my mom gets her food it's cold and the servings they get are very minimal.

It is better than any of the other places around this area. Activities are wonderful and it is close to my house. It has overall been a positive experience for our family.

Staff that connects and cares for the residents. Small enough to feel more like a family environment. Special activities sponsored often to include families with the residents to share together.

My sister is happy there as it was more suited to her age and preferences. She loves it but needs bus to accommodate scooter and better maintenance. I would say it's friendly place/ staff care about residents, pretty outdoor/ landscaping, good food.

Staff is good. Communication seems good and the move-in was easy. I would recommend the place to others. Prices are fair.

Cost for independent living stood out compared to other facilities we looked at.

Cherry Laurel is a well structured, clean, and fun place to live. The food is well prepared and contains lots of variety. I have felt very welcome by staff and residents and glad that I found this place.

We chose Cherry Laurel because of the overall perception of safety and value. There is also a shuttle that is supposed to be available for residents when they need to go off residency. I heard they are having challenges being able to go to appointments when they are scheduled. Staff are Very helpful, but there seems to be several residents have had incidents of theft of miscellaneous items....

The staff is very friendly and helpful. The facility is clean and well maintained. The move in process was easy. The meals are okay. Could improve on the variety of meals. I do recommend Celebration Villa.

Our loved one likes the residents who are living there as well as the working staff members. They are nice, but there is just not enough staff, the staff turnover is high.

My biggest issue is that there is nothing in writing for a new resident. Such as "what day is trash day?" What are the times for meals? Just stuff that new residents don't know already.

Brentwood Assisted Living gives compassionate care to my parents.

We picked Celebration Villa for the following reasons, in addition to items noted above: one BR unit with balcony, monthly price met her budget, location convenient to local children and grand children and familiar to her (e.g., near stores where she used to shop), and ease of transition from her current independent living to assisted living within the same building if/when she makes that transition.Overall impression during visits, confirmed by mom's living experience: competent and friendly professional staff; friendly residents with similar socioeconomic demographics (comfortably middle/upper middle class, but not country-club); random residents we talked to during visits liked living there; food a bit bland (negative #1), facilities a bit worn compared to a couple other places (negative #2).

All was good. The only thing I didn't understand (because it wasn't made clear) is that I did not have access to the room from the time I paid the deposit until move in day...to get the room ready. I only had access to the room the day before move in. I would recommend the facility to others.

The staff is okay. Not unfriendly, but not proactive either. It's the cheapest option in the area and isn't bad. On the Independent Living side there is zero assistance. It would be nice if they added Ala Carte items, like help with meds. They are raising the rate in 2024, but it's still the most affordable option compared to other locations.

The reason we chose Celebration Villa of Exeter was because the facility was very clean, and the overall field made me feel very comfortable and it was a small setting. It is a small community and mostly over 70. There is no ethnic diversity.

This is our first time in an assisted living facility. It would have been nice for more activities to keep them busy during the day. Based on the experience we would recommend this community so far to other families.

The staff at Celebration Villa of Teays Valley are wonderful. Especially [name removed], the main nurse. And [name removed] who works very closely with a lot of the wheelchaired folks. Their activities are wonderful. The staff works hard to make things go well -- example: the picnics, the Halloween holidays, the Thanksgiving dinner, the indoor carnival that they organized, etc. They are renovating a lot of areas, so that's good. All new furniture was a good move. It's a little bit expensive, but about normal compared to others in the area.

Mind that I don't live there. They do a lot of special themes on Friday nights where people can drink and gather. They have places they take a group to different restaurants and areas of interest 2 or twice a week. I would recommend it.
