Priority Life Care

Elmcroft seems like a really effective place with a friendly staff and well managed facility. Administrators are engaging and seem intimately involved with people and care givers. Care giving staff seems somewhat over stretched for people to serve.

My father in law really likes it, we've been trying to get him to move closer to us but he's signed into some contract until 2016 and he's got a really good rate. He's renting a house there and the house he has is a two bedroom, kitchen, living room and it has a garage. He still gets around pretty good but I don't think he participates too much but they do have a lot of activities like they have bands and groups come in and sing and they have bingo. A lot of these places have a lot of activities but it's up to them to really participate.

Very friendly and helpful staff. Residents seem to be happy. Everyone is trying to have Mom feel at home.

I'm not there so i dont really know how things are but the times that ive been there have been fine. My dads not happy with the services, and I know part of that is my dad, part of it is timeliness, part of it is he can be adifficult person. That can be how some of the caregivers respond to him, but also how he treats them. Hes also not a real participatory kind of guy but my mom enjoys the activities though. Intially, why we chose it, is the location, my parents liked the facility, what they saw, the arrangements of the rooms and everyone was friendly and they're happy for the most part.

The community (people who live here) are the best asset!

Staff is really friendly and facility is neat and clean. Service is poor half of the time they are short staffed. The call button answers are really poor.

I just wish they had security at night. No one is at the desk after 7.

Staff, friendly, but need more help some times of the day. Food is not great, more variety of items at dinner, and lunch.

The residents are lovely people who have created an environment where they treat each other as family. The nursing staff leaves a bit to be desired. Blood pressure not taken when ordered by physician, call bells not answered in a timely manner and communication between staff and family could be better. The dietary staff treat the residents like they are in a fine dining restaurant. However, the food could be better.

The resident is on their own a lot. Everyone working there is very nice!! Love them but I think they are understaffed.

Great place and great value. Good food. Nice and welcoming people. I would recommend to others.

My experience with Brookdale was very nice, my mom was there for 5 months before she passed! The care my mom received while there was very caring, when she passed the staff all hugged and it showed real care. I would recommend Brookdale!

She states the food is adequate, but she does not leave the dinner table hungry. Very tired of green beans and chicken. For the most part, the staff seems very friendly. I don't like the fact that I don't get receipts when I pay the bill. She likes it and that's what manners.

The opportunities for social activity seemed to be scarce. However I was only present an hour or so every other day due to the distance from my house. So I may have missed those activities. The staff was wonderful - thoughtful, caring, and very capable. My husband was in good hands. When an emergency arose, the staff reacted quickly and appropriately. I honestly think St. Gabriel's is a very good place especially for those who benefit from quiet time and rest. I hope this has helped you in your research. Entering a loved one into memory care is a heart wrenching experience, but having caring people in charge is a great consolation.

Everything about Brookdale is excellent. Food needs improvement. No in-house rehab. Only pt in room. Staff is so attentive

When we first considered Celebration Villa, we were very impressed with the cleanliness of the facility, the quality of the food, and the friendliness and caring demeanor of the staff. We were aware, however, that the facility was under new ownership, and had been advised to ask about staffing stability. We were assured that all of that was behind them. However, within a month or two of move-in, the director, head nurse, and marketing director were all replaced. In addition, they mishandled [name removed] intake in that they did not give the new pharmacy her insurance and PACE card information. Rather than calling me, her POA, for this information, the pharmacy filled all her prescriptions and charged us retail costs. It took me months of phone calls to resolve the billing issues. This sort of thing might have been behind the staffing changes. Having said all that, after a few months when things settled down, I was overall satisfied with [name removed] care. I can't say she was happy there, but she was treated well and all the staff I interacted with were very responsive and caring.

My sister is very pleased with Celebration Villa of Chipp. And that's where she has been staying for almost a year now. My sister is happy there and I'm glad.

They answer the phone but if not return calls. Very friendly and accommodating. Also, they call me with anything that changes with Dad. If he falls down. They let men know. If he goes to the nurses office with any issue, they let me know. We would for sure recommend this community to other families based on the experience so far.

Good because memory only facility. Others don't function as well because they have assisted living also. I would. Manager not usually around and didn't seem active. Absolute opposite from [community removed] where manager was very active and involved.

The staff was very friendly and helpful. I would recommend
